    Our best trip so far!

    We had an amazing tour guide named Samuel who spoke fluent English, Spanish and the native languages. This was a great asset to get to know the different cultures and be able to communicate with the native inhabitants. Samuel was very knowledgeable, informative and funny and we got to know Peru in a whole different light. The natives cooked traditional meals for us and made us feel very welcome. Staying in a traditional house was an interesting and cozy experience. I would fully recommend the tour! (also our boat driver was better than the one from the titanic :))

    Dawn with indigenous family

    Beautiful tour except having to wake up at the indigenous house. Worrying health situation, the market is on a wet floor, they do not have minimum conditions to prepare meals. The least you can get is diarrhea due to parasites and bacteria. The situation can be complicated by sepsis of abdominal origin and bacteremia. Really very serious

    Response from the operator: Lamentamos leer un comentario tan negativo y queremos asegurar a todos nuestros clientes que la calidad y seguridad son nuestras máximas prioridades. Tras una revisión de nuestros registros de operaciones, no hemos encontrado ninguna reserva o servicio a su nombre, lo que indica que este comentario ha sido creado exclusivamente para dañar nuestra reputación. Vemos que su perfil fue creado recientemente, para escribir este comentario. Es triste ver que, en ocasiones, se crean perfiles falsos con el único fin de desprestigiar a una empresa sin razones fundadas.

    Beautiful and Unique Experience at Lake Titicaca, Peru

    We were well cared for by Hugo and his team. They showed us the major sites in Puno. The next morning we headed out to tour the Uros and learn about those people and their floating islands. They are an interesting people to visit. The overnight stay with a family on Amantani Island was very memorable. The people are warm and welcoming. They were wonderful; we enjoyed living with them, eating with them, hiking and dancing. During the visit to Taquile Island we saw some of their expert knitting work and hiked over the peaceful beautiful country side. I recommend this experience and this group.

    Excellent personal guide to Uros

    Samuel was an excellent guide who we had exclusively during our two day tour of Uros. He was very informative, helpful and flexible to our needs during the tour, we would highly recommend him.

    A unique experience

    A unique experience. It has been a great tour, where we have had the opportunity to get to know the culture of the people who live in the islands of Lake Titikaka. Activity conducted by the guide Samuel who has illustrated us in a didactic and generous way.

    Response from the operator: Dormir en Amantani es una las cosas que se deben hacer una vez en la vida. Las estrellas en las noches son fantásticas y la cultura también. Nos alegra bastante que haya disfrutado del tour de Dormir en Amantani 2d1n, con nuestro guía Samuel. Le agradecemos bastante su tiempo por escribir este comentario, y esperamos verlo pronto por Puno y Perú. Saludos Afectuosos

    Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay cost?

    +

    Prices start at $94 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 Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 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 Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 11 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 Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay?

    +

    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 Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay?

    +

    Around 4 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay 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.

    What is included in Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Dinner; Breakfast; Comfortable and safe motor boat for the 2 days; and Hotel pickup and drop-off (center locations only). Not included: Cold Drinks; and Optional Reed Boat Ride (20 soles p/p). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    What languages is Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay?

    +

    Is Tour Uros, Amantani, and Taquile Islands in 2 Days with Homestay wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
