Our exciting range of tailor-made Lake Titicaca tours are ideal for adventurous travellers looking for the definitive South American travel experience. A fascinating lake for so many reasons, from its breathtaking natural beauty to the importance that it plays in many Andean cultures, Lake Titicaca is located between Bolivia and Peru at 3856 metres above sea level. This gives it the title of the world’s highest navigable lake, and with an area of at 8,372 km², it’s also one of the world’s biggest.

Lake Titicaca is a sacred place for the Inca civilization. Incan mythology says that the first Inca king, Manco Capac, was born here, so it has been celebrated for hundreds of years as the birthplace of the sun. Yet the fascinating history of this sacred body of water provides further insights into the original Andean people, as its shores and islands, such as Amantani and Taquile, are still home to the Aymaras and Quechuas, some of Peru’s oldest peoples who predate the Incas by a thousand years.
