What To Expect
Islas Flotantes
Once we arrive at the port we will get on the fast boat and enjoy a short trip to the Islands. First we will arrive at Los Uros where you will love to visit two Floating Islands! And besides, you can have fun jumping in the totora. The guide will tell you how they build the Islands.
Taquile Island
At the end of the visit in the Uros, we will return to the boat to go to the island of Taquile, during the trip you can try different poses for your photos and without realizing it we will have arrived in Taquile! We will go up to the island square and there we will know the textile industry that is considered Cultural Patrimony of Humanity by UNESCO. At approximately 1 in the afternoon we will satiate our hungry stomach with great delicacy. You will have a delicious quinoa soup for lunch and as a main course you will have directly from the lake your “fried trout” dish accompanied by french fries and rice, if you are a vegetarian then you can order “Omelett” that also comes with french fries and rice. With that you will be with a full stomach and a happy heart, now we will go down to the port to return to Puno and finish our tour at approximately 3:30 pm. We hope you are encouraged to live it!

5.00Great tour, we went to the floating islands of Uros and then Taquile island. Their boat is very fast and lunch on Taquile Island was excellent. The guide Freddy was very attentive and told us a lot about the traditions of the island communities and also about preserving the culture of the local environment. We paid on January 24, 120 soles per person (lunch included)

5.00Good tour, fair price. Didn't feel too touristy. Mostly Peruvians on our boat. Great guide (I think his name was Victor). Tanquile Island was really nice. Would do it again.
