Overview of your Puno tour:

Ticonata island is a dream come true, that is what I thought the first time that I visited it. It is a small and entchanting island close to main land, the natives have small motor boats to carry passengers; they started this business twenty years ago and kept the shape of their traditional houses that you will see in the photo gallery. This place has been hidden for so long and that is the beauty of it because you could be the only host with all the island for yourself. It used to be a burial place before inkas time. Its people are the best, they are quechuas, very kind and helpful, avid to share their culture, so, if you like culture and meeting people to learn from them about their traditions, way of life and history, this is the place for you, also I could say that if you wanted to relax and to have a solo time, this is what you were looking for!

Your Puno tour itinerary

- At 8:00 I will pick you up to go to the harbor, from there it takes 25 minutes to get to the floating islands. - In Uros we will spend about an hour and a half - Then we continue our trip to the northern peninsula to have lunch in a restaurant that belongs to the Quechua community. - Then we will head to Ticonata island, one hour and a half more. - When we arrive on the island the local families will welcome us, they cook usually vegetarian meals because they eat only what they can grow; but also they are fishermen. - In the afternoon they will share some of their traditions with you. - The next morning we will visit the local museum and walk around the island. - After lunch, we will head to land, which takes 15 minutes, and then our car will be waiting for us to drive back to Puno, one hour and a half more.
