3-Day Lake Titicaca Extension - Good Life Expeditions

Explore the History and Culture of Lake Titicaca

An excellent addition to any trip to Peru, a 3-day visit to Lake Titicaca will wow visitors. The highest navigable lake in the world, it is often compared to a small ocean as it is difficult to see the shore from one side to the other.

In addition to beautiful landscapes, Lake Titicaca is thought to be the birthplace of the Inca civilization and offers great historical significance and first-hand cultural experiences with local communities.

Itinerary In Detail

Starting from Lima, fly from the capital to Juliaca where you will transfer to a Lake Titicaca hotel. Starting from Cusco, fly to Juliaca or take a bus or train to Puno on the shores of the lake. Here you will transfer to your hotel.

To truly experience the lake, you of course have to hit the water. Visit the Urus islands, made entirely of reeds and still inhabited by the Urus people who built these mobile homes to evade the advances of more aggressive land-dwellers.

Further out into the lake are several remote islands, each with distinct communities that can be visited as part of Lake Titicaca tours with Good Life Expeditions. Taquile Island is known for its male weaving traditions, and is UNESCO protected for its ‘intangible cultural heritage’. Here you will spend time with the people and learn about their history and culture.

On your final day, transfer to the Juliaca airport for your flight to Lima and international connection.
