 Verified Good tour company and guide
I booked a tour to Uros Islands and Taquile Island with Edgar Adventures. Ivonny responded to all inquiries very quickly. Their price was competitive among the various options we found. The tour was well operated. Our guide Tito Castro was well bilingual. He told us a lot about the unique local culture. The lunch we had at Taquile Island was simple but very delicious, unlike the lousy meals in most of the group tours. However I didn't enjoy the islands very much. The culture was very interesting but the scenery was just okay. The sun was brutal because of the high altitude. For anyone who decides to visit Lake Titicaca, I highly recommend this company.

 Verified An unforgettable experience!
I can't say enough about our incredible trip to Punu, and it was largely thanks to our exceptional guide. From the moment we met, their passion for Punu's history and culture shone through. His knowledge was extensive, and he shared captivating stories that brought the sites to life. The guide's attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our trip was flawless, from transportation to dining recommendations. Their warmth and genuine care for our group created a truly memorable experience. We left Punu with a profound appreciation for its beauty and a newfound friend in our guide. It was an unforgettable journey, all thanks to their expertise and hospitality.

 Verified Authentic Experience
I did the 2 day trip visiting the Uros floating islands, Amantani Island and Taquile Island, staying overnight with a local family on Amantani Island. Gerson, my guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He made the experience very enjoyable and the local family were very hospitable. Staying with a local family, eating in their kitchen and enjoying their food made the experience more authentic than a regular tour. The sunset hike was a definite highlight 👍🏻

 Verified Gran experiencia 3 días en kayak Titicaca
3 dias de autèntica aventura en kayak por el lago Titicaca. Lo contratamos en la missa oficina de Puno. Realizamos una ruta por dos islas, donde pernoctamos en casa de familiars logareñas, muy humildes y que nos trataron estupendamente y nos cocinaron especialitzades locales que estaban riquísimas. Dispones de un guia y un barco a tu disposicion las 24h. Agradecer especialmente a nuestro guia Guido toda la aventura!

The guide was exceptional and worked very hard to provide a wonderful experience. The house on the lake was a great place to stay and we benefited enormously from the company of the local family who helped to look after us.

 Verified RINASCIMENTO PERUVIANO
Grandissima scoperta! Ho scelto l'agenzia di Edgar per organizzare l'escursione sul lago Titicaca, non potevo fare scelta migliore! Lui stesso è stata la guida dell'escursione e sin dal primo momento ha saputo catturare l'attenzione dei partecipanti grazie all'amore per il suo paese e per il suo lavoro. Un pozzo di conoscenza senza fine, mai banale e soprattutto rispettoso delle popolazioni che abitano il lago e che abbiamo avuto il piacere di conoscere durante la gita. Non è semplice bilanciare turismo e rispetto delle culture locali, soprattutto in un'era dove il turismo di massa tende ad appiattire tutte le esperienze. Ho passato una giornata unica che porterò nel mio cuore per sempre! Faccio i miei più sinceri auguri ad Edgar e a tutto il popolo peruviano per il loro futuro!!!

 Verified Once in a lifetime
Edgar showed me around Lake Titicaca and was an expert on all of the history of the area, which was fascinating. It was a 5 star experience and one I will never forget. I am so glad I chose to explore this area, as I am not usually one for tours. I was even able to bring my dog to visit the floating islands, a once in a lifetime experience.
