PUNO ISLANDS ITINERARY
 Day 01: Puno - Uros Island - Taquile - Amantani
Early in the morning you will be picked up from your hotel to be transferred to the harbor. We start off our boat excursion of Lake Titicaca by visiting The Uros Floating Islandť, a small community that has lived on these reed Islands for decades. Centuries ago the small indigenous Uros tribe conceived of the islands as a way to isolate and protect themselves from rival tribes, the Collas and the Incas. After strolling around the floating Islands, we continue our journey towards Taquile Islandť (2 hour aprox.), a traditional Quechua speaking community, full of ancient agricultural terraces and some ruins dating back to the pre-Inca times. The Taquile population was relatively isolated from the mainland until 1950s, and the notion of the community and family is still very strong among them. At the top of the Island, you will have free time to explore this place on your own and afterwards you will meet the group for lunch at one local restaurant. After lunch, we will continue now to Amantani Island where we will sleep tonight.(1L, 1D)
