Puno-Aramu Muru-Tiwanaku-Puma Punku- La Paz
I was extremely pleased with the tour. Alfonso was very accommodating, allowing us to skip the first stop in Peru so that I could have a full hour at the Aramu Muru site; this was very important to me. The visit to Tiwanaku and Puma Punku was excellent—Gerald explained the entire history of the pre-Inca civilizations (Tiwanaku, Aymara, Quechua, Inca, etc.). As I am very interested in history, I was thoroughly satisfied. Of course, I also want to thank the drivers, Isidor and Gustavo. Gerald and Gustavo were very kind and helped me purchase a SIM card and find an ATM. Gracias por Todo ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Response from the operator: Dear Nikolina, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with Titicaca Tours! We’re delighted to know that you enjoyed your journey through Aramu Muru, Tiwanaku, and Puma Punku, especially the fascinating history and cultural heritage of these remarkable sites. It’s a pleasure to hear that Alonso, Gerald, Isidro, and Gustavo made your experience even more memorable with their flexibility, knowledge, and thoughtful assistance. We’ll be happy to share your kind words with our team. Your satisfaction means a great deal to us, and we truly appreciate your trust in Titicaca Tours. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in Peru or Bolivia! Kind regards, Ronald Ticona

Well organized tour from and to hotel
The whole tour was organized really well. They gave me English speaking guide Juan in Bolivia who was of Aymara descent and he was well versed with local culture, history and local rituals, traditions & herbs. My whole Isla del sol trek and Copacabana church visit was impeccable. I greatly appreciate how seamlessly tour was organized from pickup from hotel to everything and drop off to my hotel. This was my first solo trip and they made it very comfortable for me.
Response from the operator: Dear Manpreet Bedi, Thank you very much for sharing a nice review. We are truly delighted to know that your journey to Copacabana and Isla del Sol was smooth, well organized, and enjoyable from start to finish. It is especially rewarding to hear that Juan, with his Aymara heritage, was able to enrich your experience by sharing his deep knowledge of local culture, history, traditions, and ancestral practices. Encounters like these are exactly what we aim to provide authentic and meaningful connections with the destination. We are also very pleased that, as a solo traveler, you felt comfortable, safe, and well taken care of throughout the entire tour. Ensuring seamless coordination from hotel pickup to drop off, is one of our top priorities, so your recognition means a lot to our team. Thank you once again for trusting us. It would be our absolute pleasure to welcome you back in the future for more unforgettable experiences around Lake Titicaca. Sincerely, Experience Manager Ronald Ticona

Many thanks to our guide...
Many thanks to our guide Ricardo. He is very helpful and enthusiastic in making our trip unforgettable. Highly recommend to book a tour so you can have everything arranged smoothly for you. For us, it wouldn't be possible to visit Sun Island if we had not booked this tour. It is a very long journey with two bus rides, two border offices, a 4-hour boat tour, plus you need to find a place to store your suitcases and have lunch. Luckily our guide took care of everything and he is so knowledgeable to provide a lot of information about the history, the culture and mysteries of this area. Thumbs up for Ricardo. Also the tour organizer Wilson is very professional and helpful. He gave us all the detailed information before the tour and answered our questions quickly.
Response from the operator: Dear Jenny, Many thanks for taking the time to share such a detailed and meaningful review of your experience. We’re truly pleased to hear that your tour was smooth, enriching, and memorable. This journey is indeed complex, involving long distances, border crossings, and several logistics along the way, so we’re especially glad that Ricardo was able to take care of every detail and make the experience comfortable and stress free for you. His enthusiasm, deep knowledge of the history, culture, and mysteries of the region are qualities we greatly value, and your “thumbs up” will certainly make his day. We also sincerely appreciate your kind words about Wilson, whose professionalism and clear communication before the tour play a key role in ensuring our guests feel well prepared and confident. Thank you for recommending booking an organized tour and for trusting us with such an important journey. We would be delighted to welcome you again for another unforgettable adventure in Peru or Bolivia. Sincerely, Experience Manager Ronald Ticona

Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puno.
How much does Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day) cost?
+
Prices start at $130 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puno usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day) take?
+
Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puno is not rushed.
Is Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puno, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day)?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puno can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puno and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Copacabana and Isla del Sol Tour from Puno (Whole Day) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puno within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Puno?
+
On Outty we rank every Puno experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tour to Uros and Taquile Islands in a Fast Boat, Uros and Taquile Speedboat Day Tour in Small Group, Uros and Taquile Islands on New and Comfortable SpeedBoat. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Puno?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Puno?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
