Great tour if you only have one day in Puno - Taquile was amazing and even though a bit tiring, adding Sillustani at the end of the tour was worth it. Our guide Samuel answered all our questions and was a great guide!

Great Puno tour - Great way to see the Puno area. You get small group attention from the guide although you share the boat at times with passengers not in our group. We visited a small Uros Island free from crowds. We had private lunch arrangements and handcraft demonstrations. Stillustani was well worth the trip. It made for a long day, but worth the effort. Hotel pickup and drop-off provided. Professional and knowledgeable guide.

Trip to Uros and Taquile - We took a one day trip by boat to Uros isle and Taquile with Inca tour and we had the opportunity to have Samuel as our guide. The tour was amazing, we had the chance to visit these wonderful places, eat local food and see stunning landscapes. Samuel wonderfully guided our group teaching us about traditions and history of these places. He was super helpful and a great guide, absolutely recommended!!

Great day of touring Lake Titicaca and Sillustani - We had a long but very pleasant tour on Lake Titicaca (Uros and Taquile) and then a quick walk thru Sillustani to view the stone tombs. Samuel was our guide and he was knowledgeable of the places we visited and explained a lot of the local culture and traditions. The day was a mix of travel and experiences at the locations. Definitely recommend this tour if you want to maximize your time in Puno and see as much as you can..

The Best Way to Spend a Day in Puno - Many thanks go to our wonderful guide, Samuel, for an awesome experience. The trip was outstanding and very well organized. Everything was great, from the hotel pickup all the way to getting dropped off at the end of a full day of incredible sights. The floating islands are touristy of course, but still worth seeing. Taquile was SUPER interesting, especially the people. And originally we thought we wouldn’t get to see Sillustani because of the protests, but the team made it happen, and we are so grateful! It was DEFINITELY the highlight. We would 100% recommend the tour and the Inca Lake team in particular. What a day!

Uros Island - Uros Island was very interesting and informative. We could have done without Taquile Island due to the time it took to get there and back and we didn't get a chance to see Puno tow Our guide Samuel was very knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. We didn't go to Sillistane - was not part of our tour

Good day trip, really interesting - The trip we went on didn’t include Sillustani. We had a great day. Anna, our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. The Uros islands were interesting, and the people there very friendly. Did feel a bit pressured to buy souvenirs though. The trip to Taquile island was about an hour and a half on the motor boat, which was very comfortable. Once there we trekked to see some islanders give a dance display and learned about the typical dress. We saw some weaving and there was a chance to buy souvenirs if you wanted. We had a delicious lunch and then returned back on the boat to Puno. One downside was the lack of direction at the beginning of the trip at Puno port. Overall though we would recommend the trip.
