Discover one of the most unique destinations in the world: the Uros Floating Islands, a set of islands made entirely of totora, an aquatic plant of Lake Titicaca. Accompanied by a local guide, you will learn about the history, culture and ancestral way of life of the Uro people, a community that has lived in harmony with the lake for centuries. This authentic experience is ideal for those who want a cultural immersion in a short time, departing daily from Puno.
During the visit, you will walk on quiet paths surrounded by agricultural terraces, share a traditional lunch prepared by a local family and learn about a living culture that keeps its ancestral customs intact.

Lovely experience with a wonderful guide, great views, interesting facts, a positive atmosphere and a very good price value. The pickup meeting was delayed and quite disorganised, therefore a little disappointing. All the rest matched fully our expectations.
I enjoyed learning about the local traditions. The guide speaks English and Spanish. As for the included lunch, a simple but good soup is offered, and they let you choose between two options: omelet or trout. Both options are good and are served together with white rice. As for the transport, the boat is enclosed (so there is no problem with getting wet, even if a few small drops of water came through the windows every now and then) and it is equipped with a small bathroom for peeing.
The whole experience start to finish was amazing. The transportation was smooth and easy, everything we learned and saw was incredible, and the guides are beyond kind and helpful. A must-do tour when you visit this area!
Highly recommended experience. Very interesting to visit their culture but above all the guide Efrain was super prepared!!! I highly recommend it.
We chose the visit to the Taquile islands, it was a great experience. Everything went well, the transport of our luggage, the visit to the island, the meal. We had quite a few explanations about the island, its history and the current culture. The transport was a bit bumpy, be careful if you get seasick.
Pick up was a bit late and disorganised. Transport in the boat was very good. The guide was helpful, knowledgeable and kind. The place beautiful, the locals kind and welcoming.
Very competent guide and positive overall experience. The typical lunch included was definitely above average compared to other tours taken in Peru.
A lot of nature, culture and history
We have had a fantastic day, the guide Efraín made it very enjoyable for us. Includes a visit to the Uros and their floating islands. We had lunch on Taquile Island, they prepared very delicious food for us. The guide explained the way of life and customs of the inhabitants of both places to us. The boat trip on the lake was a wonder.
It was a truly very beautiful day. The boat trip is comfortable, the Uros islands are characteristic, but the real pearl is Taquile. The guide was truly very good at explaining the history and traditions of these populations. Recommended!
