OVERNIGHT)
Breakfast. At 8:00am, you will be picked up from your hotel,
after 30 minutes of motorboat you will arrive at the Uros Island.
Fishermen and hunters inhabit the floating islands of the Uros.
The residents of the Uros use the cattail, a type of rush, which
grows in the lake, to create the conditions that ensure the
islands stay afloat. The dense roots that the plants develop
support the island. The roofs are waterproof and the houses are
extremely humid because of the surrounding water. At present
they speak Quechua and Aymara. We will visit 3 different
floating islands and we will board the “Totora Boats”, after
this tour we will continue our trip and we will arrive to
Llachon Peninsula. In Llachon, we will appreciate the Inca’s
costums that still stay, the behavior and the interrelations of
the residents. We will take lunch prepared by the residents.
After, we will take a motorboat for 40 minutes bordering Llachon
peninsula and we will appreciate the natural landscape that the
peninsula offer us. At night, we will take dinner and have a
show prepared by the residents who lodge us.
These homestays does not have the same facilities as one house
of the city , This program will give the traveller the

their knowledge and experiences, experimenting also the
intensity of their love to the earth, their myths and believes.

Taquile Island and we will take a walk of 50 minutes from Chuño
port, by a footpath that goes directly to the main square,
located in the top of the island. The residents continue living
according their old traditions and laws. We left the Taquile
Island where we must descend 533 stone steps (altitude 13,000 ft
above sea level)to arrive to Chilcano main port. Return to Puno.

Day 4 : SILLUSTANI - LIMA
Breakfast. Transportation to the airport to take the flight

Sillustani Chullpas (pre-Colombian funeral towers). The scenery
is desert but impressive, in a beautiful setting on a peninsula
on Ayumara lake about 32 Km. from Puno. Most of the towers date
from the period of Inca occupation in the 15th century; the
engineering involved in their construction is more complex than
anything the Incas built. (B)
