Itinerary
Day 1 Puno – Uros and Taquile Islands - Puno
Your adventure begins with an early-morning pickup from your hotel in Puno. Accompanied by our local guide, you will be transferred to the port, where you will board our boat and begin an unforgettable journey across the waters of Lake Titicaca.
Our first stop is the remarkable Uros Floating Islands, a group of man-made islands constructed from totora reeds. The Uros people have called these floating islands home for generations. During your visit, your local guide will introduce you to their unique way of life, traditions, and customs. You will also have time to walk around the islands and admire the remarkable craftsmanship behind this living cultural heritage.
We will then continue by boat across Lake Titicaca to Taquile Island, home to a traditional Quechua-speaking community renowned for preserving its ancestral customs and way of life.
Upon arrival, we will follow a scenic path toward the upper part of the island. Along the way, you will enjoy spectacular views of the deep blue waters of Lake Titicaca, ancient agricultural terraces, and traditional houses that reflect centuries of Andean heritage.
At the top of the island, you will have some free time to explore, take photographs, and soak up the peaceful atmosphere. We will then enjoy a traditional local lunch while admiring breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding landscapes.
After lunch, we will descend to the harbor and board the boat for our return journey to Puno.
We expect to arrive at the port in Puno at approximately 5:00 PM. From there, you will be transferred back to your hotel, marking the end of this memorable experience.

FAQs
What Should I Pack for My Lake Titicaca Trip?
Puno and Lake Titicaca can be surprisingly cold, especially in the early morning and evening. However, the strong Andean sun can make temperatures feel much warmer around midday. Dressing in layers is the best way to stay comfortable throughout your trip.
