Tour Details
Day 1: Puno - Islas de los Uros - Amantani
We'll pick you up from your hotel between 7:45 am and 8 am before heading to the port of Puno. There, we will board a boat that will take us to the amazing, floating island of Uros. These incredible artificial islets were built with an aquatic plane. We'll spend one and a half hours here discovering the ancestral culture of its inhabitants.
Afterward, we'll return to the boat to enjoy a beautiful crossing of Lake Titicaca. Remember to capture these stunning landscapes on camera! After a three-hour trip, we'll arrive at the island of Amantani. We will eat at the home of a local family and, once we've regained our strength, we'll set off on a brilliant one-hour hike up Pachamama hill, the highest point in the area. At the summit, we'll enjoy a magical sunset over the horizon.
In the evening, we'll have a delicious dinner and, if you want, you can join in a traditional dance with the local inhabitants!
Day 2: Amantani - Taquile - Puno
At 7 am, we'll get up and enjoy a tasty breakfast before boarding the boat that will take us from Amantaní to Taquile. It's said that the best weavers in the world live on this island. In fact, their art is even protected by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. We'll reveal this and many other curiosities as we follow the island's trails.
After making a stop for lunch, it'll be time to say goodbye to Taquile. We'll finish the tour upon arrival by boat to Puno and after dropping you at your hotel at approximately 3 pm.
