Sun Island Excursion - Full Day |

|
‘Tibet of the Americas’, Bolivia’s unrivalled beauty will play host as you explore its rich history
| Overview | |
|
Unrivalled beauty will accompany you on this tour through Bolivia’s dramatic landscape. Drive along the magical sapphire blue waters of Lake Titicaca, amid the otherwise barren Altiplano (high plateau) and savor the spectacular view on the snow dipped Andes in the backdrop. As you meander past the Jesuit villages of Juli and Ilave, you will see churches and architecture reminiscent of the colonial era. Spanish influences are also seen in the colonial church built from the red Andean stone at Pomata. Continue on past the border town, Kasani to the festive Copacabana. An important pilgrimage site, it is also popular for glorious fiestas! Mystique and magic now awaits you as you set off for the ‘Isla Del Sol’, Island of the Sun on the crystalline waters of Lake Titicaca. Cradle of the Inca civilization, you will be transported back in time as you explore the ancient ruins, ‘fountain of youth’ and the Pilkokaina palace of the Incas. The legends and folklore of these ancient people will continue to fascinate you as you arrive at the Strait of Tiquina, housing the naval base of the Bolivian army. Arrive at Puerto Perez on a barge and explore the home of the Lake Titicaca steamship service. As the sun sets on the tour and over the baronial Andes, your senses will be infused with wonder at the sheer beauty of Bolivia.
