Lake Titicaca 2-Day Tour
Day 1: Juliaca - Uros Islands - Amantani
Between 5:15 am and 6:30 am, pickup will occur at your hotel in Juliaca for a minibus ride to Puno, where we will change transport to a boat. We will first visit two Uros islands, artificial islets made of aquatic plants, to learn about their beliefs and lifestyle.
Next, we will proceed to the island of Amantani, where we will drop off our luggage and have lunch at a local family's home. The meal consists of two courses and a soft drink.
After lunch, we will take a one-hour hike to Pachamama or Pachatata hills, gaining insights into Amantani's history and capturing photos of the agricultural terraces. We will visit the temples and enjoy the sunset.
In the evening, dinner will be served, followed by an overnight stay with a local family.
Day 2: Amantani - Taquile - Juliaca
We will start the day with breakfast at 8:00 am, then depart for the island of Taquile.
