2: Titicaca Lake, Floating Islands of Uros and Taquile
|
Early
in the morning, we take a two-hour motor boat excursion on the
waters of Lake Titicaca to the unique Floating "Islands"
of the Uros. These ancient inhabitants of the lake, known as the
Water Tribe, have built their own "islands" by periodically
adding new layers of a type of reed unique to the area called
"Totora".
Their
homes and boats are also made from this material. We continue
our motorboat trip to Taquile Island, inhabited by Quechua-speaking
natives who have developed efficient and unique social systems,
as well as fine hand weaving techniques, down through the generations.
Upon arrival at the Town of Taquile we will have a lunch. Then
we will walk through the various hills and archaeological sites
of this 6km long island. In the afternoon, return to Puno for
overnight at selected hotel.
Meals Included: Breakfast and lunch
In
the morning, after breakfast, transfer to Juliaca airport to take
