WHY CHOOSE THIS TOUR?
Taquile Island, on the legendary Lake Titicaca, offers a journey where Quechua culture and sustainability are part of everyday life. Its ancient agricultural terraces, crafted with ancestral techniques, reveal a deep respect for nature and traditions that endure through time. The island’s celebrated textile art, recognized as Cultural Heritage, tells stories woven by generations, each piece carrying identity and meaning.
Life on Taquile is built on cooperation and cultural pride, making it a living model of sustainable tourism in the Peruvian Andes. By visiting with Inca's Paradise, you not only enjoy an authentic and enriching experience but also support responsible travel that strengthens the community and preserves its cultural and natural legacy.
ITINERARY
Your journey begins with hotel pickup in Puno and a short transfer to the port of Lake Titicaca. From there, you’ll set out by boat to the floating Uros Islands, where walking on the totora reeds feels like stepping back into centuries of living history. The Uros families welcome you with warmth, sharing their Andean traditions, ancestral skills, and way of life on the water. For an even more authentic touch, you can take a ride on a traditional reed boat.
Next, the adventure continues to Taquile Island, a place that feels frozen in time, where the beauty of the Andean landscape unfolds all around you. As you wander through stone pathways and ancient terraces, you’ll discover a proud Quechua community that keeps its cultural heritage alive. The island’s famous textile art, recognized as Cultural Heritage by UNESCO, is brought to life in every handmade piece, each one carrying centuries of identity and wisdom.
The day ends with a traditional lunch prepared by local families featuring Lake Titicaca trout, quinoa, and native potatoes accompanied by Andean music and dance. More than just a tour, it’s an experience that leaves you with a lasting connection to the soul of the Peruvian highlands.

"Great experience all around"
We used Incas Paradise to arrange transfer from Arequipa to Puno and for a trip to floating islands and Taquile Island. Everything was arranged perfectly and our stay in Puno and trips were just great! Gumercinda took care of everything. Highly recommend this company. Thank you for wonderful time! Leer Más...
Dariusz C"Good service"
We requested two tours for Colca canyon and Uros Floating Islands in Titicaca Lake. Because it was our first time dealing with high altitudes, we were feeling pretty sick and Inca's Paradise without any extra fee agreed to postpone our second tour until we got better. We really appreciated what they have done for us! Even more, Gumercinda helped us to find some hotels around the area. We had a lovely and safe trip :) Leer Más...
