After a quick pick-up and transfer from hotels to Puno port, you’ll onboard the Titicaca Fast Boat.
Navigate to Uros islands, where your English-Spanish speaking group guide explains everything you need to know about the Uros ethnic group.
You’ll get free time to walk inside their reed houses, they actually invite you, after a while you’ll be wearing their colorful and bright typical clothes (for pictures). After your Uros Floating Islands Tour you’ll ride a reed boat from this very first floating island to the next (optional, S/ 15 per person).
You can also visit Amantani Island in one day. On Amantani Island Day Tour a regular slow boat will take you from Puno port to Uros floating Islands and Amantani (instead of Taquile).

Taquile Island Knitting
Taquile Island is collated in an isolated and remote place in Lake Titicaca. Taquile Island is popular because of its knitting and weaving tradition.
After one hour and 30 minutes navigating by Lake Titicaca speed boat, we’ll disembark on Taquile. Here starts a soft and short hiking. You’ll learn from your guide the heritage and legacy dating back before the Inca time.
At middle day you’ll have a well-deserved lunch overlooking Lake, your guide and a local man show you the very best of Taquile textiles.
Walk down to the port to take the boat to return to Puno.
