Your epic tour begins with a transfer to the boat pier where you will embark on a 25 minutes boat ride to see the life on the floating islands of Uros. As you begin sailing away, you will get a pristine view of the snow capped Andean peaks at a distance. As we will reach to the shores of Uros islands, locals will extend a warm welcome and will introduce you to their life on this man made island. People here speak Aymara, our tour guide will teach you a few words so you can greet them in their language. The head of the community will demonstrate on how they build these islands and will share the history of it. If desired, you can buy some souvenirs here. The locals will then offer a short ride on their totora reed boat to the main island of Uros (this has an additional cost of 10 Soles). You will have some free time to stroll around, the island is also made of totora reed. Once you have had your fill of the history and views, we will embark on a 2 hours journey to Taquile.

As the boat would near the shores of Taquile Island, our local expert will be giving you a brief information of the life of locals here. It is almost a 45 minutes walk up the hill to the summit from where you will get to contemplate the views. Taquile is home to the best Andean handicrafts. Men here do the knitting while women spin the wool. People here dress based on their marital status. Our guide will be explaining this to you in detail. A village chief will give you a demonstration on how they dye the wool using vegetables. After a brief introduction, we will be stopping for lunch at a local restaurant. After lunch, we will be hiking back down to the pier and embark on our boat for a return trip to Puno. The distance of 36 kilometres (22 miles) will be covered roughly in two and a half hours. We will be reaching Puno by 0500 PM. Our representative will meet you and will transfer you back to your hotel within the centre of the city.
