Description

Enjoy 2 magical days touring the islands of Uros, Taquile and Amantaní. Tradition, history and surprising landscapes are what await you in these corners of Lake Titicaca.
Day 1: Puno - Uros Islands - Amantani We'll pick you up at the meeting point at 7:45 and head to the port of Puno. There we'll board a boat that will take us to the floating islands of the Uros. Did you know that they are artificial and built with an aquatic plant? We'll take a one-and-a-half-hour tour discovering the ancestral culture of its inhabitants. Afterwards, we'll return to the boat to enjoy a beautiful tour of Lake Titicaca. You won't stop taking photos! After a three-hour trip, we'll arrive at the island of Amantani. Are you hungry? We'll eat at a local family's house and, once we've regained our strength, we'll embark on a one-hour hiking route up Pachamama Hill, the highest point in these lands. There we'll enjoy a magical sunset. In the evening we'll have dinner and, if you want, we can dance with the local population. Everyone move to the rhythm of the music! Day 2: Amantani - Taquile - Puno At 7:00 a.m. we will wake up and enjoy a delicious breakfast before boarding the boat that will take us from Amantani to Taquile. According to legend, the best weavers in the world live on this island. In fact, their art is even protected by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. We will reveal this and many other curiosities to you as we explore the island's trails. After stopping for lunch, it will be time to say goodbye to Taquile. We will finish the excursion by arriving by boat in Puno.
