On this tour you will have the opportunity to sail by kayak in the north peninsula, in Llachon's community and the best thing is that you do not need to have previous experience, you just need desire to accomplish this goal. This is the only place on earth where you'll see this kind of man-hand creations, actually, many or all the visitors that I went with, told me that it was their life dream to visit Uros because they saw the photos in books when they were students or when a teacher taught them about a remote place in the middle of the lake. There is so much to say about the islands, their origin, and their people. It's fascinating what human beings are capable to build and how they managed to inhabit this area for so long. Come and discover it! This is a half-day tour that usually starts at 9:00 hrs and finishes at 12:00 hrs. But you can pick the start time.
- At 7:30 hrs starts the tour picking you up from your hotel to go to the harbor of Puno. - By boat it takes 25 min to get to the floating islands - Once there, the locals will tell us about their costumes, customs, religion and how they live and how they made these islands with their own hands. - You will have time to buy handicrafts (optional) or to take a reed boat, or to take a walk and to take photos. - Then we will head to Llachón in the north peninsula (by boat). Here, in the main sector of the community we will meet Jesus, a native gentleman that has the kayaks for the tour, from here to the end of the peninsula takes one hour and a half (one hour kayaking and half to take a rest in between) - Lunch in Llachon is Jesus's house. - Around 14:00hrs departure to Puno (by boat). 16:00hrs arrival. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to customize this tour.

To go to the harbor I pick a van for one to four people and a sprinter Mercedez Benz or Renault, for more than five. About the boat, it is a traditional boat and all of them have the same capacity (20 people), it does not have air conditioning or heater but is comfortable and it has a basic toilet, bus seats, a roof to take photos and a liscensed captain.
