Excursions from La Paz: Lake Titicaca Islands and Puerto Perez |
|
|
‘Roof of the Americas’, you will revel in the rich heritage and stunning landscape of Bolivia!
| Overview | |
|
Take the road less traveled as you explore Bolivia’s rich cultural heritage against the backdrop of the 6000-meter high Andes mountain ranges. This tour takes you across the haunting Altiplano (high plateau ranges) with spectacular views of Andean fields and small mud houses. Puerto Perez is a small village on the shores of the magnificent Lake Titicaca and was established by the English for the Lake Titicaca steamship service. From here set out on an exhilarating cruise along the sapphire blue waters of Lake Titicaca, the ‘highest navigable lake in the world’. Legends and mystique surround this lake, sacred to the Aymara Indians and the Inca civilization. The ancient islands of Pariti and Kalahuta along the shores of Titicaca are rich in archaeological treasures. Wander around remnants of stone houses, walls and terraces. This tour is a fascinating insight into present-day Andean lifestyles.
