Day 2:- Lake Titicaca: Floating Islands of the Uros and overnight at the Amantani Island

After breakfast, we take a two-hour motor boat excursion on the waters of Lake Titicaca to the unique Floating «Islands» of the Uros. These ancient inhabitants of the lake, known as the Water Tribe, have built their own «islands» by periodically adding new layers of a type of reed unique to the area called «Totora». Their homes and boats are also made from this material. After having experienced some of the ancient traditions of the local people, you continue your motor boat trip to Amantani Island. This island is inhabited by Quechua-speaking natives still governed by their ancient traditions, whose main occupations are the production of ceramics and textiles. The positive energy of this Island is so powerful that it is known as the «Love Island». Box lunch. Overnight at the house of a local islander to enjoy the hospitality of a typical Amantani home.
