in Lake Titicaca
The highest navigable lake in the world at 3,812m: floating reed islands, indigenous homestays, and ancient cultures spanning the Peru-Bolivia border.
Travel better in Lake Titicaca with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Lake Titicaca spends about ~$20–45 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Lake Titicaca.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Lake Titicaca (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Indigenous Communities
The Uros, Taquile, and Amantaní communities are not theme parks. They are living cultures with ancient traditions. Ask before photographing people and their homes. Participate respectfully in any activities offered. Your visit should benefit the community, not exploit it.
Leave No Trace
The islands are fragile ecosystems. Take all rubbish with you. There are no waste management systems on the floating islands or remote communities. Do not disturb the reed structures on the Uros islands. The lake is the lifeline of these communities, so keep it clean.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Lake Titicaca travel guide.
