Centuries ago, the small indigenous tribe of the Uros conceived the islands as a way to isolate and protect themselves from rival tribes, the Collas and the Incas.
The people of the Uros harvested the reeds of Totora in the shallow waters of the lake, woven those together majestically and thus built floating island platforms with reed houses and canoes, thus creating their own little world. After strolling through the floating islands, we continue our trip to the island of Taquile - Puno (2 hours approx.)
