Tour Details

Floating Island of the Uros

We will pick you up early at your hotel and head to the port of Puno, where we will board a motorboat that will take us to the floating islands of the Uros.

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by friendly local families who will welcome you to their islands made of totora, an aquatic plant that grows on the lake.

During your visit, you will learn about the ancient construction techniques of the islands and the daily life of the Uros. They will explain how they build their homes, boats and other artifacts using the totora.

You will have the opportunity to interact with the inhabitants, learn about their culture and traditions, and enjoy a ride on a traditional totora raft (optional).

In addition, you can purchase local handicrafts as a souvenir of this unique experience.

After exploring the islands, we will return to Puno, where we will drop you off at your hotel, completing an enriching morning on Lake Titicaca.
