At nearly 3,800 meters and with minimal light pollution from the surrounding shore, Lake Titicaca holds some of the clearest night skies in the Andes. A private evening crossing to the Uros islands, built entirely from reed by the communities who live on them, reaches the islands once the day’s visitors have already returned to Puno.
Reaching the Uros Islands
The Uros Islands are built entirely from totora reed, harvested and layered by the communities who live on them, and a private evening crossing by boat reaches the islands once the day’s visitors have already returned to Puno.

If this destination has sparked ideas, the itinerary can be developed into a private journey tailored to your interests and travel style, with hand-picked stays, thoughtful routing, and experiences curated around what matters most to you.
Why the Sky Is Different Here
At close to 3,800 meters and with minimal light pollution from the surrounding shore, Lake Titicaca offers some of the clearest night skies in the Andes, with the Milky Way visible in a way rarely seen at lower altitude.
An Island Built From Reeds
Standing on a floating island after dark, with the ground itself shifting slightly underfoot, adds a dimension to the experience that a mainland stargazing evening cannot replicate.
Arranged by Do Not Disturb
This evening is arranged as a private boat crossing and stay, coordinated with a local guide, and confirmed around the rest of your Lake Titicaca itinerary.
