About this experience
Discover one of the most fascinating cultures of Lake Titicaca on this 3-hour tour to the famous Uros Floating Islands. Sail in a comfortable and safe boat on the world’s highest navigable lake while enjoying breathtaking Andean landscapes. Upon arrival, you will get up close and personal with the history, traditions and lifestyle of the Uros families, who have built their islands using the totora, an aquatic plant that has been an essential part of their culture for centuries.
Accompanied by a bilingual professional guide, you will learn how floating islands are built and maintained, how their inhabitants live and the customs they have preserved generation after generation. You will have time to tour the island, chat with the villagers, appreciate their crafts and take pictures of this extraordinary place.
You can also take a ride on a traditional totora raft, a unique experience that will allow you to know one of the traditional boats.
