Half-Day Tour to the Floating Islands of the Uros – From Puno

Discover the mythical floating islands of the Uros on a half-day tour from the port of Puno, sailing across the calm waters of Lake Titicaca for approximately 30 minutes. These islands, unique in the world, are built entirely of totora, an aquatic plant that the inhabitants use to build their homes, rafts, and platforms.

During the visit, you will be welcomed by local families who will share with you their traditions, history, and way of life, passed down through generations. Learn how they build their islands, how they organize themselves as a community, and appreciate their textile art and colorful clothing.

This tour is perfect for those who want an authentic and cultural experience in a short time, without straying too far from the city.

At the end of the excursion, you can request a free Virtual Reality Tour of Chucuito, Chullpas de Molloco, or AramuMuru.
