This tour was fantastic. It was a beautiful sunny day, and I really enjoyed sitting up on the deck as the boat sped along. One precaution, wear lots of sunscreen. The sun’s rays are much more intense at high altitude. Anyway, the visit to Uros Island was fascinating. We learned a lot from the highly informative and humorous presentation on the life and culture of the floating island people. And the walk around Taquile Island was very pleasant, with breathtaking scenery and a great trout lunch. I highly recommend this tour.gerz2019

El guía conocía mucho la historia de las Islas y su comunidad. Visitamos 1 familia en su Isla, donde nos enseñaron sus casas y su estilo de vida.
