Discover the deeper beauty and serenity of Taquile Island on this immersive 2-day tour across Lake Titicaca. While most visitors only explore Taquile in a few short hours, this extended experience gives you the chance to stay overnight in a local guesthouse and explore the island at your own pace.

Enjoy scenic walks to the remote beaches, ancient trails, and panoramic viewpoints rarely reached on day trips. You’ll also visit the famous Uros floating reed islands, where indigenous families have preserved their unique way of life for generations.

This tour is available as part of a shared group (SIC) or a private experience, offering flexibility for different travel styles.
