For our team at All Ways Travel Titicaca Peru, socially responsible tourism combines a strong respect of Lake Titicaca’s culture and tradition.
DID YOU KNOW THAT LAKE TITICACA IS THE LARGEST LAKE IN SOUTH AMERICA BY SURFACE AND VOLUME OF WATER? WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO US IN TIMES OF COVID-19?
Lake Titicaca, Sacred Lake, Source of Life
We felt so overwhelmed the first days of lockdown in Peru! The realization of having to close our office and travel operations for the rest of the year was hard to take in. But we had to do it for the sake of our community and our own. After the shock at AWT TITICACA PERU, we quickly made the decision to transform this crisis into an opportunity. We have stayed at home, we have taken care of ourselves, our families and we have reviewed our purpose and rearranged priorities. We have plans and we are excited about the fresh start!
At AWT TITICACA PERU we will continue offering travel experiences that allow us to learn from each other and leave long-lasting memories. We will share experiences where children, young and senior will learn from the ancestral wisdom of the Andean communities and enjoy reconnecting with the magnificent natural environment of our Lake Titicaca. Our activities will continue to be respectful of people and the environment. Now with more impetus and passion! We will transform tourism into ACTIVISM.
HOW? We are already connecting with wonderful humanitarian and passionate local and foreign activists with whom we will implement various workshops and trainings to educate ourselves and our community. WHAT FOR? To improve our well-being, our health and share happiness with everyone! Do you want to travel with us? Lake Titicaca is waiting for you!
Cultural Immersion Tours
Our cultural tours have been created to offer our travellers the opportunity to have an authentic look into the lives of indigenous Aymara and Quechua speaking Peruvians who continue thousands of year’s tradition. Most cultural tours include a homestay overnight. The longer you stay the more activities you can enjoy with them. A homestay in a remote community is a unique and special experience if well approached with a good tour guide and a responsible tour operator.
Adventure Tours
Ask us about some of our kayaking or hiking tours. We have a variety of adventure options to fit all ages and fitness levels, with low-impact options for those who desire. Many of these tours are a merge of adventure and cultural/educational experiences. Some of these tours take us off the beaten path to be inspired and energized in nature. Immerse yourself in the beauty and wonder of the clear blue waters and stunning landscapes.
Classic Tours
Imagine you arrive in the floating islands and a very outspoken and age-diverse group of Uro people start singing for you in different foreign languages; Japanese, English, French or German. Would you hate it or love it? Today the visit to Uros floating islands is the most controversial tour in Titicaca! It is all about the cultural interpretation of their modern reality! For more intimate and immersive experience check our cultural Puno tours.
Lake Titicaca is a large, deep lake in the Andes on the border of Bolivia and Peru. By volume of water and by surface area, it is the largest lake in South America. Lake Titicaca is divided in two by the Peninsula of Copacabana: Lago Mayor (main lake) is the northern part and the Lago Menor (minor lake) or Lake Huyñaymarca is the southern part. Lake Titicaca has a surface elevation of 3,812 m (12,507 ft).
We are Local Peruvian Tour Operator specializing in Cultural Exchange tours of the Andean region of Lake Titicaca including the breathtakingly beautiful Islands. Our educational tours offer a genuine discovery into the lifestyles, dreams, expectations and challenges of the indigenous people of the islands of Lake Titicaca.
Our philosophy is that all cultures have a right to exist and that within every culture is hidden a treasure of knowledge and experience. We believe in a future in tourism that works together with and supports the indigenous cultures of Peru. Our major focus as a tour agency is to develop meaningful cultural exchange experiences such as our «cultural tours» and other Puno tours. We have also created a number of outreach programs for the indigenous communities of Lake Titicaca.
