“I loved the floating island and the culture and the biodiversity of the island. The family stay was very good but please be aware that there is no meat no WiFi and no television.. also be very aware that you do not have the use of the shower only the toilet which is not in your room so be prepared to walk down in the middle of the night to use it …my other concern was the amount of walking up hills that you have to do so that you can take advantage of the spectacular views.. not for the faint hearted this one….”

Review of a 36-hour Cusco to Lake Titicaca tour with sleeper buses, Uros and Taquile visits, family lunch, costs, and practical tips.
“This was such a fun activity and I'm glad I ended up going. I only paid $109 for a bus ride from Cusco to Puno and back. The bus was comfortable, but the bathrooms need some extra love... no toilet paper or soap to wash hands. Also, on the ride there, the bus was so hot. Here's something you should know, it's written that you have the optional to shower, well, you have to book a room at the hotel... it's not free. I do wish they would have provided a bottle of water at least. The breakfast was very plain, the food that we had (breakfast and lunch) wasn't…”

Review of Peru Hop’s 3-day Lake Titicaca trip from Cusco, with Uros, Amantani, Llachon, overnight buses, costs, tips, and drawbacks.
“La guida e il trasporto niente da dire ma l‘escursione in generale é stata pessima. Non siamo andati a vedere la popolazione Uros ma siamo stati solamente su una mini isola e poi da lì in un’altra isola dove c’era soltanto un ristorante. Praticamente una gita per spendere soldi in souvenir. Di fronte a noi c’era il villaggio Uros che abbiamo visto soltanto da lontano. Terribile.”

Review of the full-day Lake Titicaca tour from Puno to Uros and Taquile, with island fees, lunch, transport, hikes, and practical tips.
“Very interesting to see and be part of the lives of the wonderful people of these islands. The leader of the island gave us a great presentation on what daily life is like. They invited us in their homes and shared their lives. The people of the Uros are special and their lives are unique. You just have to visit and experience it for yourself. The taquile island is a hard climb up the side of a mountain on a rough sidewalk. You need to be in good physical condition to make it the top but once you are there the views of the lake are spectacular and the food…”
