À propos
Most visitors see the Uros floating islands from a tour boat and move on. This experience puts you on the islands themselves, working alongside the families who've built and rebuilt their homes on layers of totora reed for generations.
You'll cut fresh reeds from the lake and help lay them down — the same maintenance routine the Uros follow every couple of weeks to keep their islands from sinking. There's also a chance to set up fishing nets along the shore using traditional methods, and if you'd like, you can try on traditional Uro clothing for a while.
Between activities, the community opens up about their daily craft work. You'll watch them weave textiles and shape intricate jewelry, an...

This tour skips the usual tourist circuit and takes you straight into daily life on the Uros floating islands. You'll cut totora reeds right from the lake, help set up fishing nets along the shore, and even dress in traditional Uro clothing — the kind of things most visitors to Lake Titicaca never get to do.
Between activities, keep an eye on the water: ibises, coots, and other waterfowl are constantly moving through the reeds around you. Your Uro hosts will walk you through how they craft everything from miniature boats to woven tapestries, explaining techniques passed down over generations. It's less of a show and more of a conversation — a chance to see how this community actually lives on the lake, not just how it's presented to tourists.

Lac Titicaca
Your route crosses through the Titicaca National Reserve, where the landscape shifts between open water, dense totora marshes, and clusters of floating islands in the distance. Grebes, Andean gulls, and cormorants are a common sight here — your guide will point them out as the boat moves through the reserve.
Once on the islands, you'll see firsthand how the Uros maintain their home: cutting fresh totora reeds and layering them over the island's surface to keep it firm and buoyant. You're welcome to grab a knife and join in. It's physical, a little muddy, and one of the clearest ways to understand how deeply this community's daily life is tied to the lake around them.
