Day 01: Uros Floating Islands & Taquile Island (Regular Tour with private guide - 8 hours)

Embark on a journey through time and tradition with a departure from the lodge at 07:10 hrs. Your day unfolds with a transfer to the launch point for an immersive visit to the enchanting "Uros" floating islands on Lake Titicaca. Situated a mere 4 km from Puno, these remarkable islands are home to descendants of one of the oldest cultures in the Americas. Here, you'll witness the enduring legacy of the Uros people, their homes meticulously crafted from totora reed, floating gracefully on the lake's surface.

The adventure continues to the serene Island of Taquile, a place where time seems to stand still. Discover the striking Mediterranean vibes of the island, with its stone-paved paths and homes clustered around the central square. Meet the island's indigenous community, direct descendants of the Incas, renowned for their exquisite textile craftsmanship. Marvel at their intricate chumpis (belts), chullos (caps), and ojotas (sandals), and learn how local customs influence their attire, especially the officials' distinct black or brown caps.

Taquile also presents breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Titicaca, set against the backdrop of the majestic snow-capped peaks of the Cordillera Real. After a day rich in culture and scenic beauty, return to your hotel to unwind. The evening concludes with a delightful dinner and a restful overnight stay, marking the perfect end to a day of exploration and discovery with Lux Adventure Peru.
