Embark on our journey from Puno port, boarding a boat bound for the first destination, the Uros Island. The Uros people, descendants of the Aymara, inhabit artificial floating islands that date back to the pre-Inca and Inca eras. A significant portion of their homes is constructed from cattails, an aquatic plant that surrounds the island. While the Uros were traditionally engaged in hunting, fishing, and agriculture, tourism has become a crucial economic activity, contributing to the preservation of this ancestral community.

Following the visit to Uros Island, a 2-hour boat trip brings us to Amantani Island. Enjoy a typical lunch at the home of a family involved in experiential tourism. In the afternoon, embark on a walk to Pachatata or Pachamama, two beautiful mountains offering a mesmerizing sunset view. After the stroll, retire for the night in one of the traditional houses of an Amantani Island family.

Commence the day with breakfast in an Amantani family home. Bid farewell and board a boat bound for Taquile Island. This picturesque island boasts charming paths, traditional houses, and stunning viewpoints of Lake Titicaca. Witness the craftsmanship of local artisans and enjoy a provided lunch. Additionally, observe a demonstration of natural plant usage for dyeing Alpaca fiber. Conclude the visit with a boat ride back to Puno.

For tourists in Cusco seeking an economical and appealing option to visit Lake Titicaca, a bus journey from Cusco to Puno is recommended.

The Lake Titicaca full-day tour is the ideal choice for exploring Peru’s most significant floating islands.
