Expert Tips

“From Puno, you can spend a day visiting the tiny island of Taquile, one of South America’s most beautiful locations. Standing atop its terraced slopes, warmed by the bright sunshine, there are moments where you’d swear you were on an island in the Mediterranean – Capri or Sardinia. Sheltered groves look out onto water that is a dazzling blue, and rustic stone paths criss-cross grazing areas for sheep and cattle.”

“If you have time, make sure you visit Sillustani – 20 miles outside of Puno. Here you can see the line of Chullpas (funeral towers) that once housed the remains of the Qolla, a fierce warrior tribe vanquished by the Incas in the late 1400s. Qolla nobles would bind their dead in the fetal position and place them in uterus-shaped tombs, together with food and personal belongings for their journey into the next world.”
