    TITICACA LAKE (UROS Y TAQUILE) - 01 DAY DESCRIPTION:

     

    DAY 01 (MAIN PORT - UROS (FLOATING ISLANDS) - TAQUILE ISLAND):

    This first day we will pick you up from your hotels (7:30 am) or bus station (prior coordination), later by car we go to the port of Puno (captaincy), where we will take our comfortable boat. We begin our tour at Lake Titicaca, and our first stop will be at the floating islands of "Los Uros", located 30 minutes by boat from the main port of Puno. We will begin our visit with the recognition of each island, explaining how they built these islands in the highest lake in the world (built with reeds), as well as their importance. Later we will go to the most distant island "Taquile", where we will spend the night.

     

    • UROS.- Located 30 minutes by boat from the main port of Puno, inhabited by the Aymara people, this place is considered one of the oldest Andean civilizations, since it arose long before the Inkas. Fishing, bartering and its crafts are part of its economy. We will begin our visit with the recognition of each floating island, explaining how they built these islands in the highest lake in the world (built with reeds), as well as their importance. Approximate visit: 1 hour and a half.
    • TAQUILE.- The second visit of the day will be on the island of "Taquile", the boat trip lasts 1 hour, where we will have the opportunity to meet the people of Taquile, very cooperative and well organized. The Taquileños recognized worldwide for a high degree of advancement in Textile work, have been awarded by UNESCO. It should be noted that the threads and fabrics are made mainly by men from the age of eight. Life in Taquile has not undergone great changes due to modernity; the island is inhabited by a Quechua population and where products and work are still exchanged (barter in Quechua); however, agriculture, textiles and handicrafts are its main economic source. Approximate visit: 3 hours..
