About this experience

Paddle through the floating reed islands of Uros in a sea kayak, getting close to the golden totora channels that wind between the islands. This 1h kayaking experience puts you at water level, where you'll feel the coolness of the lake —a quieter, more intimate approach than arriving by motorboat. The Uros families you meet will share how they build and maintain these remarkable floating homes. Then, a fast boat takes you across open water to Taquile that rises steeply from Lake Titicaca, its terraced hillsides home to communities known for their textile work—recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. You'll see men knitting the distinctive chullo hats and women weaving intricate belts, skills passed down through generations that tell stories through patterns and colors.The combination works well: kayaking to Uros gives you an active start to the day, while Taquile offers cultural depth and the chance to walk the island's stone paths.

Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puno.

How much does Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile cost?

+

Prices start at $136 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 Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile take?

+

Plan for about 9 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 Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 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 Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile?

+

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 Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 9-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile?

+

Around 0 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Full day tour Kayaking to Uros island and speedboat to Taquile 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 Islands on New and Comfortable SpeedBoat, Lake Titicaca Fast Boat Tour Uros and Taquile Islands with Lunch. 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.
