Can definitely recommend this tour company - I was a bit hesitant about the cost at first, as you can just put the trip together alone as well for a much less, but I have to say it was so worth it. I felt really altitude sick in the morning and it was so nice to not have to find the right bus etc. but have everything arranged. There was no one else on my tour and my guide was incredibly knowledgeable and tought me so much about the inkas and bolivian culture. I just had the best experience. For me personally the cost of the tour was 100% worth it.

Carlos, our guide, was... - Carlos, our guide, was exactly what a guide should be. He had a relaxed manor, was knowledgeable, informative, and worked at our pace. He was interesting and interested; we had great conversation throughout the day.
The short tour of Copacabana was perfect to understand the history of the town, its context in Bolivia, and how it works today.
The boat trip to Isla del Sol was stunning. The views of the lake and mountains were breathtaking, they were worth the trip alone. Time spent on the island was enough for us to see notable sights and have a beer! But, be warned, there are lots of steps!
The bus ride from Puno to Copacabana and from Copacabana to La Paz was straightforward and uneventful. The border crossing was well explained by staff and equally uneventful. From Copacabana to La Paz, be prepared for the delights of a boat crossing between San Paulo and San Pedro. Although it delays the journey, it is a real spectacle.

Trip with Friends to Copacabana and Isla del Sol - "What an amazing experience my friends and I had on the Copacabana and Sun Island tour! Everything was perfectly organized, from punctuality to transfers. The Guide was very friendly and showed his passion for sharing local history and culture. We spent fun times exploring Isla del Sol, hiking and admiring the breathtaking views of Lake Titicaca. It is perfect for those who want to explore with friends and live an authentic and well-guided experience."

Amazing trip with my partner - My partner and I just returned from a wonderful tour to Copacabana and Isla del Sol organized by Titicaca Tours, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the first contact, the care was excellent, with clear and quick information. The crossing of Lake Titicaca was magical, with stunning scenery and a very friendly Guide who shared fascinating facts about the history and culture of the place. The hike on the Isla del Sol was unforgettable, ideal to disconnect and enjoy as a couple. We definitely recommend the tour with Titicaca Tours to those who want to live an authentic and well organized experience.

Best decision you'll make on lake Titicaca - You could put this trip together in your own, but don't. Titicaca Tours take care of everything, all the guesswork, the uncertainty of cross border travel, the stress so that all you have to do is enjoy.
Worst case happened for me and a notoriously fickle border decided they one of my documents wasn't robust enough. TT got my message and within minutes had a guide there to take care of the issue, escort me through and get me back on track with the tour. If it had been just me, no Isla del Sol. Super nice, communicative, thoughtful and competent. Book them. I'm so glad I did

Travel awful Guide excellent - Let's start with positive, the guide was fabulous in Copacabana and helped with some difficulties with Visa issues. The bus travel is awful. We were not picked up from the hotel and the bus left without us. No guide on the bus just instructions which buildings to go to for immigration then he disappeared.
We were due to catch the 6 pm bus but again it left without us. Our guide helped us grab a taxi to flag it down. Ricardo was with us and kudos to him in so many ways.
I'm glad the car was waiting upon our return to take us back to the hotel but almost an hour later than scheduled.
