Uros Floating Islands

Before boarding the motor boat to Uros Island, we will make a short stop at the dock where you can purchase snacks and bottled water. Once on the boat, our guide will introduce himself and the boat captain before giving you a rundown of the itinerary on Lake Titicaca. During the trip, you will see totora plants growing in the lake. When the boat docks, the island chief will demonstrate how they build the islands out of totora and share a few words in Aymara. The natives are known for their handicrafts, which you will be able to purchase. You will then have the option to sail on a totora boat (15 Soles) to the main island of Uros and get your passport stamped as a souvenir. You can walk to the top deck of the boat and take photos of the floating islands.

Very professional, a clean and very friendly taxi picked us up on time at the hotel. Very good boat with a guide listening. They could take us back to the hotel but we preferred to stay in port for lunch. And all for 5 euros!!!
Great day on the lake. ...

We had an amazing experience on this tour! Everything was perfectly organized – we were picked up directly from our hotel and taken care of from the very beginning. Our guide Samuel shared lots of interesting information, which made the trip even more special. The time on the lake was more than enough to get a wonderful impression of the area. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting – truly a memorable experience!

It was a most unique and amazing experience. Seeing people living on floating islands - not on dry land is inconceivable.
