Gran recorrido por las islas
Nos encontramos rápidamente en el aeropuerto por nuestro conductor, Wilson, que hizo que el traslado fuera tan suave como hubiéramos podido esperar. No solo era un gran conductor, compartió mucha información con nosotros sobre el área de Puno. También agradecí el contacto a través de Whatsapp porque había un fallo con el día de recogida correcto. La persona de contacto Titicaca hizo el ajuste y también se registró con nosotros antes de nuestra llegada. Esta empresa tuvo un precio competitivo y prestó un servicio excepcional.
Grand tour of the islands
We were met promptly at the airport by our driver, Wilson, who made the transfer as smooth as we could have hoped for. Not only was he a great driver, he shared a lot of information with us about the Puno area. I also appreciated the contact via Whatsapp because there was a glitch with the correct pick up day. The Titicaca contact person made the adjustment and also checked in with us prior to our arrival. This company was competitively priced and provided exceptional service.

Tour bien organizado desde y hacia el hotel
Todo el recorrido se organizó muy bien. Me dieron el guía de habla inglesa Juan en Bolivia que era de ascendencia Aymara y estaba bien versado en cultura local, historia y rituales, tradiciones y hierbas locales. Toda mi visita a la Isla del sol y a la iglesia de Copacabana fue impecable. Aprecio enormemente cómo se organizó el recorrido sin problemas desde la recogida del hotel hasta todo y la entrega a mi hotel. Este fue mi primer viaje en solitario y me lo hicieron muy cómodo.
Well organized tour to and from the hotel
The whole tour was very well organized. I was given the English speaking guide Juan in Bolivia who was of Aymara descent and was well versed in local culture, history and rituals, traditions and local herbs. My entire visit to Isla del sol and the Copacabana church was flawless. I greatly appreciated how the tour was organized seamlessly from hotel pick up to everything and delivery to my hotel. This was my first solo trip and they made it very comfortable for me.
Passeio bem organizado de e para o hotel
Todo o tour foi muito bem organizado. Na Bolívia, recebi o guia de língua inglesa Juan, que era descendente de aimarás e conhecia bem a cultura, a história, os rituais, as tradições e as ervas locais. Toda a minha visita à Isla del Sol e à igreja de Copacabana foi impecável. Apreciei muito a facilidade com que a excursão foi organizada, desde a coleta no hotel até tudo e a entrega no meu hotel. Essa foi minha primeira viagem solo e eles a tornaram muito confortável.
