What you can expect

Lake Titicaca is home to unique communities with which we will share unforgettable moments learning about their culture and traditions. The Uros are a people who have lived on the floating islands of the lake for more than 3,000 years and their ancestral practices were declared Cultural Heritage of the Nation in 2013. They have developed the ability to live among the reeds and have adapted to the environment, using this aquatic plant to build their rafts and houses. Its inhabitants will be our guides, explaining to us about the formation of the islands, the way of life on the islands and the creation of their traditional fabrics using reeds. As part of this experience, we will learn about the ancestral customs of a people that date back to the years 3000 and 2000 BC. In addition, we will travel on rafts to a second island to understand even more their customs and way of life. Finally, we will return to Puno. The Titicaca National Reserve houses nearly 160 species of fauna and more than 170 plant species.
