The trips was an amazing way to see and learn about lake Titicaca and it’s people! Our guide Jose Carlos was great fun and very informative. Our host family on Amantani island we so lovely as well. Overall we had such a great time on the trip and would totally recommend it to anyone who wants to see the natural beauty of the lake and get to know the local people.

Unique and fun adventure. The stop on one of the Uros Islands was very interesting - such gentle people! The overnight home stay on Amantani was special, and the hike up to the temples of Pacha Tata and Pacha Mamá was challenging and beautiful. Excellent two days, with fabulous authentic and homemade food.

The fantastic Tour, the hotel where the manager is very apathetic, regarding the tip, it did not seem suggested to me, if not mandatory in all the places where the visit was made, I know that all those regions live from tourism but one feels obliged and spend a lot on tips.

This trip was very well organised. Staying with the local family was really nice. You stay with other people from the group too.

So enriching humanly speaking, a real homestay experience as I wanted
