Lake Titicaca Kayaking Experience
Activity Details
We’ll pick you up from your hotel at the designated time, and from there we’ll make our way to the place where our kayaks are waiting for us. Then, we’ll climb into our kayaks and receive some instructions about how to safely enjoy this activity and learn some rowing techniques.
Once in the water, you’ll be able to kayak in the world’s highest navigable lake; Lake Titicaca. After approximately one hour, we’ll reach the famous floating Uros Islands. Did you know that the Uru people hand-make these islands from the lake’s reeds?
As soon as we reach the Uros Islands, the locals will welcome you and tell you all about their way of life. After a short stop to explore the island and learn more about its culture and traditions, we’ll get back in our kayaks and row back to the mainland.
At the end of the experience, we'll drop you off at your hotels after a total of around 4 hours.
