Itinerary

Day 01

Itinerary

We will start with the transfer from the hotel at 06:40 a.m. to the lake port of Puno, to board a motor boat where we will travel to the floating island of the Uros and we will know the life of the inhabitants.

The Uros is a very ancient native community made up of more than 40 islands, which are built with totora reeds by its own inhabitants, these are used for the construction of their homes, boats (rafts), fuel and food for human consumption. In this excursion we will visit 2 to 3 islands during 30 minutes each one (with the option of doing the tour in the typical Totora boats). Then we will continue traveling to the island of Taquile, upon arrival we will have a 1 hour walk.

In Taquile we will observe the landscape, customs and have lunch in a local restaurant where we will have a typical lunch based on trout. We will also have free time to explore the island and meet its inhabitants who will show us their way of life through their textiles. Finally we will be returning to Puno at 03:30 pm.
