Beschrijving
Explore the floating islands of the Uros on a guided boat tour from Puno. Learn about the Uros people, their history, and how they construct the islands from totora reeds.
Board a boat from the main port of Puno and set out on a guided tour to the floating islands of Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world. Discover the rich history of the Uros people, a culture established over 3,000 years ago.
Be amazed by the unique spectacle of the 80 floating islands constructed from totora reeds, an aquatic plant that grows on the lake's surface. Learn how the totora reeds are woven and arranged to create the surface of each island.
Find out how the Uros trade the reeds and also use them to build their houses, for cooking, and in their kitchens. As an optional activity, you can take a trip on a traditional reed boat called a "Balsa de Totora," a type of water transport also made from the totora reeds.
