About this activity

Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world, located at 3856 meters above sea level. Its shores and small islands are home to the Aymara and Quechua who come from ancient cultures that lived in this area long before the Incas dominate. Here visitors can explore traditional villages where Spanish is the second language and where ancient myths and beliefs persist even today. One of the peculiarities of Lake Titicaca are the small floating islands inhabited by a tribe called the Uros. In these small islands visitors are welcomed and can even ride in one of the famous reed boats.

Great way to see Lake Titicaca from La Paz

An outstanding day from Le Paz to Lake Titicaca by bus, and boat, with lunch included. We went by bus ( and boat) to Cococabana, a lively town, which is an important religion centre and from there by boat to the Isalnd of the Sun, an important Inca site. The walk on the island of the Sun does require a reasonable level of fitness as altitude can affect your breathing Suggest people take plenty of water and nibbles Our guide, Jaun, was knowledgabke yet low key, which I always prefer It would have been great to have had more information about the agenda for the day, for example we had no idea that we would not get back to LaPaz until 10 pm! Would highly recommend

Dayliss, la guia, excelente!

Es un dia largo. Sales muy temprano por la mañana y el frio se nota.... son 3 horas en autobus de ida y 3 de vuelta, pero vale la pena. El paisaje durante el trayecto y a la llegada, la isla del sol, el lago..... maravilloso!! Lo recomiendo al 100%. Ademas, esta agencia te recoge y te lleva al hotel, y los drivers son encantadores. No te lo pienses!

Be energized in the Sun Island

I booked the trip the last minute. They were very attentive and they picked me up from my hotel at the time they told me. The trip started from the bus terminal in La Paz. The bus ride was about 4 hrs, included the ferry cross. You have a guided visit through Copacabana beach in the Bolivian side. You also get to see lots of culture in town. Our Guide was very attentive and keen to explain everything surrounding the place. Then you have lunch in a nice town restaurant. Then the moment of the boat ride to the sun island comes, which is around an hour. It’s a bit chilly but worth it. The sights are espectacular and once you arrive to the island, be ready to walk at 4000mts above sea level, it will take your breath away! After a visit to the island, you can be amazed as well at the ‘Inca’s Garden’ to be ready for the boat ride back. The only thing I was crossing my fingers was to be able to see the sun set at 6:25. Unfortunately, your hauled back to the bus to leave at 6:30. To be honest, that’s the only thing I would’ve like to see before going back, but the tight busses schedule really took it away from me. It really bummed me down. I really don’t know when I’d be back, but it was a matter of 5 to 10 extra minutes. I still believe it could’ve have something extra for the price on a smaller transport. I have to say the guide was great, the sights amazing, but the cherry on top, the sunset, was not for me to see, hence the 4 starts. Despite all of this, i do recommend the trip, you’ll have a nice day of fun at the lake.
