Things to do in

Yumani, Bolivia

We had an amazing trip to Copacabana and Isla del Sol. The guide (Peter) was great and explained everything really well. It all went very smoothly with clear maps and good instructions. Things to note: It is a very long day but that’s necessary to get there so not really a problem. However, the bus ride is VERY bumpy so it’s unlikely you’ll be able to get any sleep whilst travelling there and back. You will need some cash to enter Isla del Sol and for snacks if you want to get any when you stop. Toilets also often cost money so small change helps. The hike up to Isla del Sol is tough, the actual walk is fine, a few steep steps and then a gradual incline, but the altitude (4000m +) does make it very tough! I am of medium fitness with very mild asthma, however it was really triggered by the altitude so I would definitely be aware of that if you need to be. For us it was quite chilly in the morning and very hot in the afternoon so layers are a good idea.
