Description

Embark on a memorable boat excursion, indulge in stargazing, and witness an impressive fishing display on Lake Titicaca. Experience the rich traditions of the Uros community as you explore their remarkable floating islands during this two-day adventure!

Tour Overview

Day 1: Puno - Uros Islands

Your journey will begin with a pickup from your hotel in Puno at the arranged time, followed by transportation to the port where a traditional vessel awaits. Prepare for a captivating one-hour exploration on Lake Titicaca, where stunning views are sure to captivate you!

After this exhilarating ride, we will reach the Uros floating islands, constructed from totora reeds, the same material used for their boats. A detailed introduction to these unique islands will enhance your visit as we settle into our overnight accommodation. Following a delicious lunch, enjoy a brief rest before embarking on a nearly two-hour guided tour through this intriguing archipelago.

During our exploration, you'll be immersed in the daily lives of the Uros people as they engage in activities such as weaving and fishing. As evening descends, prepare to witness a breathtaking sunset. After dinner, we will gather around a bonfire to gaze at the stars, creating memories that will last a lifetime!

Note: The bonfire will only occur under suitable weather conditions.

Day 2: Uros Islands - Puno

On the second day, after enjoying breakfast, you will have some leisure time to take in the stunning views, explore the island, or purchase local crafts. Later, we will board a boat to return to Puno.
