Description

Inside the lake Titicaca, inhabited by people of solidarity men and women who share their culture, and their ancestral traditions. The traveler has the feeling of having taken a leap in time, to relive a piece of the great story of the children of the Sun. These natives are great navigators and masters of the fabric that preserve their wisdom in the designs and decoration of their clothing and in their traditions. The island is also of great scenic value due to its location in the immensity of the lake.

This trip is very popular because of the opportunity to interact with the natives who still maintain their innocence of mind and heart, due to the very simple and quiet life style they lead. The houses are very simple and cozy, all overlooking the lake, this combination of culture and nature makes this place a charm.
