PRIVATE FULL DAY TOUR UROS TITINO FLOATING ISLAND - LLACHON

Experience the magic of Lake Titicaca, the world’s highest navigable lake, where tradition, nature, and adventure come together in a truly unforgettable day. The journey begins with hotel pickup in Puno by our team, followed by a transfer to the city’s main port. There, you’ll board a private motorboat toward the lesser-known Uros Titino floating islands—entirely built from totora reeds—where local families will welcome you and offer a detailed explanation of how they build their islands, homes, and boats, and how they sustain their ancestral way of life in harmony with the lake while adapting to modern times.

After this cultural immersion, you’ll continue to the community of Llachón, located on the Capachica Peninsula, a peaceful and scenic area. Upon arrival, a host family will greet you with a traditional lunch made from fresh, local ingredients such as quinoa, native potatoes, and lake trout. Afterward, they will present a hands-on demonstration of their main economic activities, including traditional agriculture, artisanal fishing, and livestock herding—offering a deep understanding of their sustainable and nature-connected way of life.

In the afternoon, you can choose from a range of optional recreational activities to connect with the surroundings: enjoy a ride on a handmade sailboat powered by the highland winds, paddle a kayak across the calm, sacred waters of Lake Titicaca, or hike to Llachón’s natural viewpoint, which offers stunning panoramic views of the lake, nearby islands, and even distant snow-capped Andean peaks. Each activity offers a unique way to experience the enchantment of the Titicaca and deepen your bond with this landscape full of spirituality and history.

As the day draws to a close, you’ll return by boat to the city of Puno, where our staff will be waiting at the port to transfer you back to your hotel. This enriching journey not only connects you with one of the oldest living cultures of the Andes but also offers moments of peace and wonder in one of Peru’s most awe-inspiring destinations.
