Lake Titicaca, Peru This tour begins between 6:00-7:00 am with a transfer from your Puno City Center hotel to the port. Then by motor boat (35 feet long with a covered section in case of rain or cold weather, 25 individual seats) we visit the Uros floating Islands. Stepping on them feels very much like a water bed (but it is quite safe). We see the houses, the islands and meet its friendly inhabitants. Uros people are descendants of one of the oldest South American groups. Rides on traditional reed boats can be arranged. In the mornings these islands can be crowded. We visit two of the 60 islands before continuing on to Taquile Island.

The trip was cool.
The start was strange as we had to be there very early but then sat around for almost an hour doing nothing (which sucks at 6 am in the morning).
The trip itself was nice - The culture is very interesting to see, but be aware that it is a very touristy place with many weird things to spend your money on.
But worth for the cultural experience.

Fousto was a fantastic tour guide! This was the best way to see a lot of the lake in one day - the more colorful boats would take way too long, so we definitely appreciated this tour with how huge this lake is! Definitely consider this as an epic option!

I love nature, and although it was not the most that I expected, this place made me feel like a unique place to enjoy its beautiful landscape
