The 3 main tours around Puno in Peru are to 3 islands in Titicaca lake, The flotation islands of Uros, Taquile island and Almantani. Uros can be made just in the morning, it´s very close to Puno´s port. Taquile is 2 and a half hour by boat and is usually made combined with Uros and takes a full day. Almantani... More

The floating islands were amazing. A wild life style to say the least. It is very commercial, not like US commercial, but the locals try to sell you their crafts. This was just a part of our Peru trip. We enjoyed it but I don't know if I would do it again if I was planning a trip. It was... More

Peru with Gate 1 was fantastic. Guide was wonderful and so were the accommodations. Saw things that I never imagined were there. The floating islands on Lake Titicaca were amazing and memorable.

We have just spent an amazing few days on and around Lake Titicaca. What a wonderful experience from having lunch on Sun Island to visiting the inhabitants on the floating islands, it is a truly magical place.

The lake Titicaca and its Islands (especialy Uros Islands) are wonderful and unique. Just 2 negative points we remarked: very much tourist-oriented, and there is a littering problem with pollution of the lake. Sure, on a trip to Peru, this great lake and nature reserve is a must, but I sincerely hope that the problems are recobnized.

We made a special trip to Lake Titicaca on our route throughout Peru. We left the same day we arrived because it was so awful. Sure, the lake was pretty once you got past all of the pollution and trash littered around the shore. There were crappy little restaurants and cheesy, broken down carnival-type rides around the shore. We were... More

Beautiful and unique place. We visited the well maintained floating Uros islands however found the tour too touristy and pressured to buy the islander's ornaments. We also toured Taquille Island -not to be missed - we had a nice long walk, a lovely lunch, there was Bolivia on the horizon, beautiful flora and fauna and the islanders are known to... More

Me and my friends booked a large boat just for ourselves, for $300, at the desk of the Sonesta Posadas del Inca Hotel, in Puno, Peru. The trip was awesome, superb landscapes.. we visited the Taquile island, and we were allowed to drive the boat on our way back. We took a lot of great pics, especially with the lake... More

I visited Lake Titicaca with a G adventures tour group. The views of the lake are beautiful! WE visited the Uros Islands (reed floating islands) which are fascinating. The islands are made of reed and soil only. The islanders sell impressive ornaments made from reed and also beads and tapestries. Haggle for a good price! We had lunch and toured... More
