7 Nature & Parks in Puno That You Shouldn't Miss
Llamas, sheep and alpacas roam the plains of Puno, a port city in southeastern Peru. Their fleeces are used to make the area’s signature textiles, which make excellent souvenirs. You’ll do a lot of walking here, as many of the streets are too steep for cars. But the climbs are worth it for the excellent views of Lake Titicaca. Take a boat to the Floating Islands or get up close and personal with the four-legged locals at a llama farm.

I felt like at Uros every thing the locals say has been rehearsed before, some of their jokes were just for the tourists and it made me rather sad than laugh. From the uros islands, we took a 2 hour boat ride until getting to the Taquile island. From there we walked to the main square (you can definitely feel the altitude during the walk so take it easy), where you have a traditional lunch (fresh fish, french fries, rice, some vegetables). From there you can walk around a little and continue to where the boat picks you up. The circuit offers spectacular views of the lake, and you can see all the view to Bolivia. Probably one of the best things to do when in Puno, the views are impressive.
