View full itinerary · DAY 1: UROS (FLOATING ISLANDS) – AMANTANI ISLAND
First, we will visit the ancient culture of the Uros and the famous floating island. Also, the islanders will give us a presentation about their lifestyle on their islands made by the inhabitants. Therefore, they were built with the totora cane that grows between the shores of the lake. Consequently, here we will learn about their existence in these small islands and how they have adapted to their conditions.
Afterward, continuing with our tour of the lake we arrive at Amantani island. Soon, we will meet the Quechua families who will offer us a cozy house-stay style accommodation. In addition, we will prepare traditional food for lunch. After that, we will make the short climb to the two summits of the island, while observing the daily lifestyle of the local people. Next, at the top of the island, we will visit two ancient pre-Inca temples, Pachatata and Pachamama (father and mother cosmos). As a result, in the evening, after dinner, community members will celebrate a small welcome party for us.
