Lake Titicaca Tours
Lake Titicaca sits at 3,812 meters above sea level on the border of Peru and Bolivia, making it the highest navigable lake in the world. This vast, deep-blue body of water has been sacred to Andean civilizations for thousands of years — according to Inca mythology, the creator god Viracocha emerged from its waters to create the sun, moon, and stars.
What to See and Do
The most famous attraction on Lake Titicaca is the Uros floating islands, man-made islands constructed entirely from totora reeds by the Uros people. Visitors can walk on these buoyant islands, visit local families, and learn about this unique way of life. Beyond the Uros, Taquile Island offers stunning views and a community known for its exceptional textile traditions, recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage.
Tours from Cusco
Wonders of Peru Expeditions offers tours that combine Cusco with Lake Titicaca, traveling through the stunning Andean altiplano to Puno. Our guided excursions include boat trips to the islands, cultural interactions with local communities, and visits to the pre-Inca burial towers of Sillustani along the way.
