The 15 Best Uros Islands Tours from Puno

39 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.6 average  ·  from $7

The Uros islands are built and rebuilt from totora reed and lived on year-round, so a visit is a short call at somebody’s home rather than a sight. These 15 range from a two-hour boat out and back to overnights on Amantaní with a host family; prices, durations and what each actually involves are below.

1.Uros, Amantaní & Taquile Islands 2-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 452 reviews · 2 days · from $59Our pick

Two days on Lake Titicaca with Uros floating islands, an Amantaní homestay, and a sunset hike up to 4,130m.

“A terrific way to explore some of the islands in Lake Titicaca. The homestay with Vicky and her family on Amantani was terrific - comfortable room, good food, lovely family, and very fun to get dressed up and dance! The trip provided a good range of activities - walking, boating, cultural insights, shopping, eating, relaxing. Would definitely recommend to others - especially to take the time to spend the night on Amantani.”

Fast boat day trip from Puno to Uros and Taquile on Lake Titicaca, with bilingual guide, included lunch, and cultural stops.

“We took a great boat trip to Uros and Taquile with Freddy as our guide. He was very attentive and gave us great information about the two different groups of people we met. We were a bit hesitant to take this trip initially as it looked very touristy. However, Freddy made it clear that the people we visited now rely on tourism as part of their survival. The Uros people can no longer survive fishing as the number of fish in the lake has drastically dropped. They have turned to tourism, explaining their way of life and try to sell some handicrafts to survive. There are only about 2,000 Uros…”
