Very worthwhile trip 😊 - A great tour! Even the drive over the plateau and the pass from Cusco to Puno is worthwhile by day. In between you will visit indigenous and Christian sites worth seeing. The whole following day on Lake Titicaca is an absolute highlight, the floating islands of the Uros, another beautiful island far out in the lake with views of Bolivia in the distance, beach and bathing facilities. The food was excellent both days, hotel appealing, guides very nice and competent. The bus is extremely comfortable, I'm not really a fan of night rides if it can be set up differently in time, but the seats fold down to loungers where you can sleep well, curtains create some privacy.

Great experience at Lake Titicaca - Very nice circuit, I recommend you. Very nice hotel in Puno in front of the cathedral which is really to see. The boat on Lake Titicaca great with the vistas of Uros and Taquile and the trout dish very good.

Would recommend it - Loved the experience and would recommend it. I only wished it was specified more clear that it is 2 days, 1 night in Puno and 1 night on the bus sleeping on your way back to Cusco, so it is technically 2 days and 2 nights. Day 1: They are very punctual, which also means you are very very rushed at all stops. Not enough time for pictures. The lunch was good but the restrooms (men/women) were very very bad. The restroom on the sleeper bus going back had the urinal right in your face if a lady has to use the facility which was very unhygienic and nasty - so ladies beware. Other than that, the tour guide was really nice, the equipment (motorcoaches) were new, the hotel was clean and quaint, the tour to the Uros island was nice. You do feel a bit pressured (even if they say no pressure) to buy something because you feel bad and the family really insists you buy something to help them out. But they are all very nice, the guide to the islands, the boat, and the highlight was also Taquille island with the locals setting up a dance demonstration, use of some indiginous cacti for cleaning, the crafts and the lunch was great there. The family was so accommodating, friendly, very clean, great food, clean restrooms with soap and paper (big bonus), and the views....amazing. I would still recommend the trip as it does take you to experience other people in their environment and you are being exposed to their ways, which is awesome.

Great trip well organised to lake Titicaca - Lake Titicaca ( TitiKaka ) trip from Cusco to Puno The trip was well organised with taxi meeting me in Cusco Plaza at 6.15 a.m. this took me to the coach and I recent ticket via WhatsApp and communication throughput the trip. The coach journey with five stops was well paced and the scenery is epic and you are 2.7 miles at highest point with views of many mountains and Apus. A taxi met me at the coach stop in Puno and took me to my hotel in the main square, 3 star and perfect for a night stay. In the morning another taxi picked me up and took me to the port at Puno and we had a great guide who explained the trip. The floating islands are amazing and great to see families living on them and the boat ride to Taquile island is spectacular with views to Bolivia, lunch was delicious 😋 and we returned after a long day to port Puno and I explored Puno until 9 pm when I was picked up again by pre-arranged taxi and shown how to get my coach ticket sorted out for the night coach, the coach was very hot and bumpy, not a good night sleep. overall 5 star for the trip to Lake TitiKaKa. Thank You Kev ( EnglishMystic )

TITIKAKA - The tour was very good, the trip to Puno was on a very comfortable bus with a very good guide. The hotel very comfortable and well located. The trip to meet the people who live on the islands of Uros and Taquile was amazing. The Peruvian people are very polite and caring. I recommend the experience.

Excellent excursion - The bus is extremely comfortable and our guide was amazing and knowledgeable! We stopped several times on the long drive to Puno. Once in Puno, our hotel wasn't equipped for people with mobility issues but we survived. The island tours were wonderful and the ride back to Cusco ( overnight) was very comfortable.

Great experience visiting the beautiful lake and floating islands. - Was a wonderful experience visiting the Floating islands and meeting the locals in Uros. Also enjoyed Taquille island. We were picked at on time by our guide from our hotel and we were taken to our boat. The lake itself is quite beautiful and the floating islands are stunning. The trip included lunch on one of the islands. The lunch was good. They had options for vegetarians as well. We were dropped back to our hotel in time for dinner by evening.
