You will be picked up from your hotel around 8:20 am, after 2 hours motorboat you will arrive at the Uros island. Fishermen and hunters inhabit the floating islands of the Uros. The residents of the Uros use the cattail, a type of rush, which grows in the lake, to create the conditions that ensure the islands stay afloat.
The dense roots that the plants develop support the island. The roofs are waterproof and the houses are extremely humid because of the surrounding water. At present they speak Quechua and Aymara., then you will visit Taquile Island on Lake Titicaca .It is known for its two pre-Inca temples dedicated to the earth's fertility. Built on different hills, these places are sacred and ceremonial rituals are still practiced by "Andean Yatiris" there. There are plenty of opportunities to purchase their woven textiles, pottery and straw baskets. Then we will come back to Puno, transfer to your hotel
