Uros Floating Islands Half Day

Introduction:

Uros are native communities located on a man-made floating island in the Titicaca Lake, There, the people live totally interwoven with the TOTORA reed which grows abundantly in the shallow lake. The Uros are replacing the reeds all the time at the top of the island so that it doesnt rot away from the bottom. The Uros build canoes, made from Totora, they use those for transportation and fishing. Also, you can take this kind of boat to the islands, just tell us in advance to arrange it for your trip.
