Your Travel Experience with Bamba
Day 1
After breakfast, our adventure begins with a convenient pickup from your Puno hotel. We head to the bustling lakeside port, where a comfortable motorboat awaits to whisk you across the serene expanse of Lake Titicaca.
Marvel at the engineering marvels of the Uros—entire islands woven from reeds, floating miles from shore. These unique habitats were originally created for protection and now showcase the ingenious survival skills and culture of the Uros people. Explore the islands, meet the locals, and gain insight into their ancient way of life.
Board the boat again for a scenic journey to Taquile Island, passing breathtaking landscapes. On arrival, savor the stunning, secluded beaches and pristine views unique to this UNESCO-listed locale.
Step into the welcoming world of Taquile’s inhabitants. Settle in with a local family for an overnight stay, gaining insight into authentic daily life and ancient weaving traditions. In the afternoon, join an optional hike with panoramic lake views or simply unwind in the calm village atmosphere.
Day 2
Begin your day with a hearty, homemade breakfast alongside your host family. Participate in daily chores—help tend crops, care for animals, or even try traditional building techniques under expert guidance.
Gather for a delightful lunch and share a heartfelt traditional farewell, complete with coca leaves and local wine—a special tribute to your hosts.
As your journey across Lake Titicaca comes to an end, you leave with more than photographs—you take home the warmth of the families you’ve met, the stories woven into every tradition, and a deeper appreciation of this extraordinary region’s living heritage. The colors of Taquile’s textiles, the resilience of the Uros, and the serene beauty of the world’s highest navigable lake will stay with you long after you return to Puno. Thank you for joining us on this immersive cultural adventure until next time, may the spirit of Lake Titicaca continue to inspire you!
