After enjoying the beautiful lake views, we wait for sunset to contemplate one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world!

What is the night on Amantaní like?

You stay in a local family home, in simple but cozy rooms with shared bathrooms. It is a cultural immersion experience: the family shares their customs and food.

How demanding is the tour?

It is easy difficulty: you sail by boat and walk at a relaxed pace. On Amantaní there is a 30-minute uphill walk and a similar one on Taquile.

What is the best time to do it?

It can be done all year round. The dry season (April–November) is the most recommended for Lake Titicaca.

How do I prepare for the altitude?

Puno is at 3,812 m. Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol and walk slowly; spending the first night in Puno before the tour helps with acclimatization.
