Descrizione
Explore the islands of Uros and Taquile, and spend an unforgettable night in Luquina Chico sharing with a local family. Enjoy typical food, living nature, and ancestral culture.
This 2-day tour invites you to discover the magic of Lake Titicaca through three unique experiences: a visit to the floating islands of the Uros, the traditional island of Taquile, and an experiential night in the community of Luquina Chico.
The first day begins with departure from the port of Puno. You will sail to the Uros, where you will learn how these floating islands are built entirely of totora reeds. You will learn about their history, culture, and way of life. Then you will continue to Taquile, an island famous for its UNESCO-recognized textile tradition and panoramic views. There you will enjoy a typical lunch prepared by the locals.
In the afternoon, you will arrive at Luquina Chico, a rural community that welcomes tourists with warmth and a sense of identity. You will be welcomed by a local family and stay at the TITICACA LODGE - LUQUINA, a rural accommodation with solar energy, hot water, and a view of the lake. You will share a tour guide-led walk or experiential workshop (weaving, cooking, fishing, or agriculture, depending on the season) and enjoy a homemade dinner.
The second day begins with an Andean breakfast. Then, you can participate in a final activity before returning to Puno in the afternoon.
This experience will allow you not only to visit the main attractions of Lake Titicaca, but also to experience the local culture from within, directly supporting families who work for fair, authentic, and sustainable tourism.
