Lake Titicaca

3 days/2 nights

Peru has a superabundance of delights, including vast Lake Titicaca, with its sparkling sapphire waters (60% of the lake lies within Peru). From Cusco, you'll travel to Puno. The following day you will tour the Inca terraces and ruins at scenic Taquile Island and the "floating islands" of the Uros people who build the famous "totora" reed boats. The Uros and other lakeside dwellers depend extensively on the totora reed. It is used to make fishing boats, homes as well as the famous floating islands of reed. Visit the pre-Colombian ruins at Sillustani before flying to Lima.
