Really nice morning! We... - Really nice morning! We wanted a few hours to for the Uros islands and exactly what we got! First you go to an island to visit a family who live there. The president was lovely and showed us her home. Next you visit a more touristy one - with souvenirs/restaurant. It was a great morning! I would recommend. The boat ride was great and the guide and driver very lovely.

Unique experience to learn about Uros Island - Lovely relaxing trip to Uros Island to get up close to this very unique aspect of the lake. Learned about local culture and customs and got to tour homes and talk to locals. Be sure to bring some extra cash - there are opportunities to partake of local crafts and handiwork and to take a ride on one of the local boats (an must-do).

Unique and very nice experience. - We did the Uros tour with Richard and it was a wonderful experience. Richard was very friendly and we loved hearing the story of the Uros from his own voice. We also had the pleasure of meeting Edith on one of the islands, who taught us more about her culture. Their crafts are beautiful and we were able to take some as souvenirs. It was a different and very special experience for us. We highly recommend it!

This tour was exactly as... - This tour was exactly as expected. A 3-hr. tour with pickup from our hotel to drop off at the hotel. And a 2-hr. boat ride with an exposure to the life and conditions of the Uros people who live on floating reed islands in Lake Titicaca near Puno. The English guide was very helpful in translating the native language for us. The lady whose island we visited was enthusiastic to show us her way of life. At the end there was a show of their handicrafts and since they were nicely made, we purchased some items. Bring cash for souvenirs and for tips. Overall, a good tour to get out while getting used to the altitude!

Too staged and commercialized - The Uro Island is too staged and commercialized that pressure the tourist to purchase totally unwanted souvenirs. We visited Lima, Cusco, Pisac, Urubamva, Machu Picchu and Uro Island and all of those places had exactly same souvenirs not so practical or appealing. If those locals just performed and displayed building process of floating island instead of pressuring tourists to purchase unwanted souvenirs. we could much appreciated and willingly offered bigger gratuities.
