What you can expect
Transfer from the meeting point at 6:40 to the lake port of Puno, to board a motorboat on which we will travel to the floating island of the Uros, which you will visit for 45 minutes.
From the starting point we will have a friendly guide in English and Spanish who will introduce us to the life of its inhabitants.
The Uros are a very old indigenous community, made up of more than 40 islands, which their own inhabitants build with totora. These are used for the construction of their homes, boats (rafts), fuel and as food for human consumption. On this excursion, you visit the main island and around 2 or 3 islands for 30 minutes each (with the option of taking a ride on the typical totora boats).
Then you continue travelling to the island of Taquile. Upon arrival you have a 1-hour walk to reach the town.
In Taquile we will stay 3 hours visiting the place observing the landscape and customs, we will have lunch in a local restaurant where we will have a typical lunch based on trout. We will have free time to explore the island and meet its inhabitants who will show us their way of life through their textiles.
We will return to Puno at 2:30 p.m., arriving in Puno at 5:00 p.m. (regular boat) or at approximately 3:50 p.m. (speedboat). Upon arrival at the port, we will transfer.
