Descrizione

Travel from Cusco to Puno along the Route of the Sun, then explore Uros, Amantani and Taquile in a boat. Includes admissions, meals, guide, a Puno hotel and an Amantani homestay.
Connect two of southern Peru’s defining cultural landscapes in one coordinated three-day journey from Cusco. Begin aboard a comfortable tourist bus along the Route of the Sun, stopping at historic and archaeological sites while a specialized guide explains the region’s Inca, pre-Inca and colonial heritage.
After a night in a standard Puno hotel, continue across Lake Titicaca by regular boat. Visit the floating Uros Islands, share meals and an overnight stay with a host family on Amantani, walk to the ceremonial center of Pachatata, and take part in the community cultural evening.
On the final day, travel to Taquile for a guided introduction to its community organization and renowned textile traditions. Enjoy lunch on the island, return to Puno at approximately 3:00 p.m., and board the afternoon tourist bus back to Cusco.
Day 1 Cusco to Puno along the Route of the Sun
