- Lake Titicaca - At 7:10 am pick-up from your hotel in Puno, transfer to the port. Then by confortable motor boat, (30 individual seats) we visit the Uros floating Islands. Stepping on them feels very much like a water bed (but it is quite safe). We see the houses, the islands and meet its inhabitants. Uros people are descendant of one of the oldest South American groups. Rides on traditional reed boats can be arranged. In the mornings these islands can be crowded. We visit two of the 80 islands before continuing on to “Taquile Island”.
- Taquile Island - After a relaxed navigation of extra 1 hour and a half when we enjoy the spectacular views offered by Lake Titicaca, we get to “Taquile island”. There a unique community can be observed. A long path gradually ascending will take us to the village (45 min. hike approx) to visit the communal cooperative where you will find handy craft textiles. Lunch at one of the many local restaurants. The views are magnificent. Then we descent 600 steps down to the main port of the island. At 15:40 hrs.
