This is the experience that we always suggest to anyone who can take time to enjoy, 
for we will visit not only Titicaca´s  floating islands of ´Los Uros´, but also `Amantaní´ and `Taquile´, 
and will stay, each one, couple or family, for the night, 
at a small house of a typical family, on one of the islands. 

The floating islands of ‘The Uros’ lay on the altitude of 3,812m.a.s.l., at 10km from Puno’s harbour (journey of 30 minutes). Here live about 600 People. 
 The Uros is an archipel of more than 40 islands, each one habituated, 
according to its’ size, by 2, 5, 15 or 30 families. 
These islands (as well as the boats) are constructed of pure Totora-reeds, 
 by their own inhabitants. This reed also serves as a food. 

This island is of great social, ethnical, panoramic and environmental importance, 
with huge handycrafts-potential. It lays at about 3 hours from the floating Uros. 
There are 2 small, sacred mountains on this island: 
"Pacha Tata" and "Pacha Mama", where we can see archeological remains, and places of worship. 
The island’s rough nature gives beautiful panoramas, in contrast with the great lake. 

This fascinating island in the Lake of Titicaca lays at 35km from the town of Puno. 
The panorama is really impressive, 
and its community lives in almost perfect harmony with nature. 
This community, where a kind of communism is custom, 
even until these times, manages to live their traditional way.
