Visiting Lake Titicaca is a completely unique trip that allows its visitors to become immersed in the beautiful scenery while learning about indigenous groups that live on floating islands. The Uros people create man-made islands out of reed plants and still live on them today!
Considering that Lake Titicaca is located at an elevation of 3,810m above sea level, before doing any intense activity be sure to acclimatize adequately to the altitude. Be open minded and respectful when learning about new cultures while visiting the lake which is home to many indigenous groups that allow visitors to discover their lifestyles. The lake has a fascinating history of having religious significance to the Inca civilization.
