UROS ISLAND AND LLACHON PENINSULA FULL DAY TOUR

The community of Llachon is located in a very scenic part of the Lake, in the peninsula of Capachica, which separates the Bay of Puno (or shallow section of the Lake) from the main Lake, or Lago Mayor; its scenery, beaches, typical accommodation and kindness of its families, allow for a comfortable stay. From the peak of the Inka Carus ceremonial grounds, one can admire the small archipelago where is located the Ticonata island with its rustic houses and its friendly people.
Llachón is a community of skillful and fine weavers and artisans, at the border of the lake, which offers the possibility of sharing the day to day work with visitors.

PROGRAM

You will be picked up from your accommodation at 7:00 a.m., to go to the port of Puno to take a tourist motor boat and to direct towards the wonders floating islands of the Uros. After a 1 hour motorboat ride, you will arrive at the Uros island in the Titikaka lake. Fishermen and hunters inhabit the floating islands of the Uros. The residents of the Uros are known as the “water tribe”, because they must construct its own Islands periodically, adding new layers of totora reeds, which grows in the lake, to create the conditions that ensure the islands stay afloat. The dense roots that the plants develop support the island. The roofs are waterproof and the houses are extremely humid because of the surrounding water.
They used it as home and trade centers for the natives, who use hand-made boats of the same material as their means of transportation. At present, they speak Quechua and Aymara. Following this exciting tour, after this tour we will continue our trip and we will arrive to Llachon Peninsula.

In Llachon, we will appreciate the Inca´s custom that still stay, the behavior and the interrelations of the residents. We will take lunch in the local community restaurant. After lunch, we will take a hike to the Akikarus tutelary hill, located to 3km from Llachon town, in this place we will appreciate the Commercial Center and Ritual Inkakancha, that has the form of a circulate template, inside we will observe two stone tables, one of them is circulate and the other one is rectangular, this is a sacred places where every year, in February, the residents renders tributes (ritual
ceremony) to the Pachamama (ground), as a gratefulness for the fruits offered.
Then, will we return to Puno, and in the way, we will enjoy a beautiful natural Andean landscape of the Inca’s sacred lake. Then, we will arrive to a beautiful beach of white sand. We will continue visiting the craft center.
After that, we will take a motorboat for 40 minutes bordering Llachon peninsula and we will appreciate the natural landscape that this peninsula offer us. Finally, we will return to Puno. Overnight. (L)
