You can choose between a private tour or a shared tour for this full-day cultural adventure to Lake Titicaca's iconic Uros Floating Islands and the traditional island of Taquile. Travel across the world's highest navigable lake and immerse yourself in the history, traditions and daily life of the communities that have inhabited these waters for generations.

Your journey begins with a scenic boat ride from Puno to the Uros Islands – remarkable floating settlements handcrafted entirely from totora reeds.

Continue across the lake to Taquile Island, famous for its stunning landscapes, vibrant culture and UNESCO-recognised textile traditions.

Along the way, admire breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Titicaca and the surrounding Andes.

A traditional lunch on the island is included, offering an authentic taste of local cuisine. Before returning to Puno, you'll have free time to take photos, browse handmade textiles and appreciate the peaceful atmosphere of this extraordinary destination.
