Lake Titicaca Travel Guide (Uros, Amantaní and Taquile Islands)
To close off our trip to Peru we headed from Cuzco to Puno with the intention of covering Lake Titicaca (Lago Titicaca) as best we could over the duration of two days. Our trip started from Puno early in the morning when we boarded a boat bound for the Uros Island. The Uros people, who lives on floating reed islands, welcomed us to their floating islands where we had a chance to tour around and purchase some souvenirs.

Afterwards, we took a traditional rowing boat made out of reeds to another island before heading off to Amantaní. Upon arriving our host family greeted us and we headed to our homestay where we had a traditional lunch consisting of Quinoa soup, potatoes, fried cheese and rice. Afterwards we hiked to the top of the Island (Pachamama) where we had incredible 360 degree views. It felt like we could almost touch the clouds. In the evening we dressed up in traditional attire (ponchos) and headed over for a dance party with live traditional music. The following morning we visited our final island (Taquile) before heading back to Puno. Overall, it was an incredible trip and one we recommend highly; however, be sure to do the two day trip and opposed to the one day option for a more relaxed time.
Lake Titicaca Travel Guide (Uros, Amantaní, Taquile) to Puno, Peru Travel Video Transcript:
So we are taking a really fun overnight trip from Puno today to visit Lake Titicaca. Yeah, we're going to visit several islands and do a homestay overnight. Yeah, and we'll get to meet the different communities that live here because we have Aymara people and Quechua people. So we've just arrived at our first island. And this one is called Corazon de Lago which means the heart of the lake. And this is an Aymara community that lives on a floating reed island so let's go have a look around. Let's check it out.
So it is a bit of a strange sensation walking on the reed islands because it is not solid ground and your feet do sink in a little bit but not to the point where you feel like you're going to fall through and you know go in the water. But still kind of interesting.
Okay, so what have we learned so far on this floating reed island? So we've visiting the Uros floating reed islands and there is approximately 80 to 90 of them. And the people who originally came here were escaping hostile neighbors.
So this is quite a secluded environment for them.
We've made it to our third island of the day. This one is called Amantani and this island is actually home to Quechua people whereas the first two that we visited were home to the Aymara people.
So aside from meeting our host families, what I'm most excited for is food. Because it is already lunchtime. It's a little bit past our lunch time actually. And we forgot to pack snacks. Yep. So I'm starving. So before we settle in we're going to get some local food. Yeah, and apparently they are vegetarian on this island, so we're going to be having a Quinoa soup and then just like potatoes and roots and different vegetables. Cheese and stuff like that. Cheese, yes. So it should be good.
So are you doing okay? A little bit out of breathe? Yeah, a little bit out of breath. We're still feeling the altitude. Actually Lake Titicaca is higher than Cuzco if you can believe that.
Sopa de Quinoa. Ah, sopa de quinoa. Quinoa soup. Ah, que rico.
So we reached the top of Pachamama. How are the views? Oh, we sure did. The views are insane here. It is almost like you're touching the clouds. It is like you can reach up and touch them.
So we're all dressed up, we've had our dinner and now it is time to go to the party. And we are dressed up in traditional outfits. Party!
Alright, so it is a new day and we are visiting a new island. Yes, this is our last stop on Lake Titicaca. This is Taquile Island and we're just going to take a wander around and see what we find. Yes, maybe we'll find our guide and she can tell us a bit of the history of the place. Let's go find her.
This is part of our Travel in Peru series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Peruvian culture, Peruvian arts, Peruvian foods, Peruvian religion, Peruvian cuisine and Peruvian people. All things Peruano. The best of Comida Peruana and Cocina Peruana.

Puno is a city in southeastern Peru, located on the shore of Lake Titicaca. It is the capital city of the Puno Region and the Puno Province with a population of approximately 140,839 (2015 estimate). The city was established in 1668 by viceroy Pedro Antonio Fernández de Castro as capital of the province of Paucarcolla with the name San Juan Bautista de Puno. The name was later changed to San Carlos de Puno, in honor of king Charles II of Spain. Puno has several churches dating back from the colonial period; they were built to service the Spanish population and evangelize the natives.

Lago Titicaca Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Lago Titicaca in Peru.
Travelling to Lake Titicaca, and at an altitude of over 3,000m, the train journey across the mountainous terrain of the Puna High Plateau is acknowledged as one of most beautiful railway journeys in Peru. For 3,500 m. the yellowish-brown grassland of the Wetlands of Punapuna dominate the landscape of the truly breathtaking high plateau and after several hours the spectacular journey reaches Lake Titicaca, legendary birthplace of Inca culture. Located in the centre of the Andes and at an altitude of nearly 4,000m., Lake Titicaca covers an area of 8,300 square kilometres and has a depth of almost 300m. The western area of the lake contains a fascinating artificial island world known as the 'Floating islands of the ancient people of Uru'. The 'islands' are floating mats of dried-out Totora, a reed-like papyrus that grows in the dense areas of the lake's marshy shallows. It is no wonder that the Inca people believed that this watery region was a holy lake. In Inca mythology, the 'Children Of The Sun', Manco Capac and Mama 0cllo, emerged from the depths of Lake Titicaca to create their glorious and mystical empire.

Traveling to Peru, Puno-lake Titicaca
Our experience from our trip to the highest navigable lake in the world, with a surface elevation of 3,812 metres! The hospitality of the people at the Amantani island was admirable and we will never forget them! But..the altitute sickness was inevitable..Enjoy!
PUNO, PERU | Things to do at 12,500 feet up!
Puno was one of our favorite spots on our Peruvian trip! With only 150,000 people, it's small enough to not feel cramped like a big city, but large enough to have great sights and food.
We began our day at 12,500 feet up by struggling with some altitude sickness. Once we found a delicious cafe just outside Plaza de Armas, we began to perk up!
After a quick pitstop at our AirBnb, we ventured even higher in elevation to Mirador El Condor which has a gorgeous overview of the city and Lake Titicaca.
Then we returned to central Puno and enjoyed a tasty lunch with a great view. Several Coca de Mates may have been consumed as well!

Vacation Peru: Taquile Island - Titicaca Lake - Puno - Peru
Vacation Idea: Taquile Island or Isla Taquile is located on Titicaca Lake - Peru. It's 45 Km far from the shore and the city of Puno. The Island has about 2.200 inhabitants and is located at 4050 meters above the sea level.
You can get a boat tour to get to island, this tour will also take you to Uros Island, it is a long tour that will take you the whole day, you are going to spend a long time inside the boat due to the long distance.
Once you get to Taquile, just go easy, specially if you are not yet aclimatized, you will have to climb around 400 steps in a steep stone stair to get to the village, if you try to do it vary fast you'll dizzy, do it slowly, and stoping at some points to catch your breath.
Once you get to the village you will have one of the best views in Peru, the huge Titicaca Lake, the stone constructions, the color contrast of red, brown, green and yellow.
Once in the main square you can visit the local market and buy some souveneirs and clothes handmade by the locals that wear the locals costumes the whole time.
After some time, your tourist guide is going to take you to your home to have a nice lunch, where you can choose fish (Ceviche) or scrumbled eggs. Usually a local play some music and make some jokes along the lunch to entertain the tourists.
Also, just make sure to get your sun scream with you in a hot and sunny day.
