Day 2
Uros and Taquile Islands
Climb aboard the lodge’s boat for a short voyage out to the floating islands of Uros. Made entirely by hand from totora reeds and requiring near-constant maintenance, these unique settlements are home to a community who live entirely off the lake’s natural resources. Continue to the tiny natural island of Taquile to meet a community known for their weaving skills. Watch the dexterous locals at work, knitting and weaving textiles by hand, then sit down for a traditional home-cooked meal.
