5.00A great view of some pretty special landmarks, it's a decent amount of time travelling on the bus and boat but I personally think it's all part of the tour - seeing the countryside and everything in-between was one of my favourite parts of the tour. Albert was great and answered all the questions I had. I also found the boat and bus comfortable enough to catch up on some sleep on the way back. Note that these may not be private however I didn't find this to be an issue at all.
Visa experience spoiled trip

4.00Make sure you have Visa documentation in order to make this day trip. My friend did not and was not allowed across the border and continue the tour. I was able to continue. The guide I had was fabulous and the experience was great on the tour, but, only one of us got that experience.
Beautiful sights - great tour guide.

5.00Our tour guide Fernando was very knowledgeable, and we enjoyed the tour, the sights, and the restaurant very much. Copacobana is full of shopping opportunities. We where surprised at the amount of stair climbing we had to do at the isla del sol. Not sure if I knew about this activity if I would have done it. The altitude and all the climbing up the hill in steep stairs was quite a challenge. So much, that I could not fully take in the beauty of the isla del sol because I had to catch my breath all the time.

5.00It was a great experience! Our guide was very good and patient with us, gave a lot os details. Sailing at Titicaca Lake was wonderful! And the lunch was amazing!!! Just the travel to Copacabana is a little inconfotable because its far away from La Paz
We were robbed in Copacabana, a simple tip to avoid it.

2.00Third time in Copacabana, we couldn't be so stupid. very important Salespeople or anyone can always come and start a chat. We left the tarp and a backpack with a cell phone, money, cards BEHIND us and the one who was giving us a talk. When we realized it, it was obviously late. The advice is, ALWAYS BELONGINGS in front of our eyes, and we even chat with Lula.
Worth the effort of visiting

5.00It is a must to visit Lake Titikaka and Isla del Sol, but it is important to know that it is a somewhat tiring trip to do in a single day, as it takes around 3 hours by bus to Copacabana and another 1h30 by boat to the island. In other words, you will be back in La Paz after 10pm. Anyway, it's all really beautiful. Bring a snack or fruit, as there are not many options open to buy something on the way back. It deserves a visit.
They stood us up

1.00We waited at the pick up location at the time specified in our confirmation email. Half an hour after this time we tried to contact the contact number provided but they never responded. We ended up waiting an hour before giving up. The wasted morning meant we were never able to visit Copacabana as all other companies had left by this time.
The best!!!!💯
