Very detailled replica of a drug user, as seen in the photo. Movie was very exciting, mainly because of the sound effects.

Remarkable to learn how different cultures adapt to their environment and use the available resources. The idea that you can build a floating island, rebuild or relocate as necessary makes settlement fluid and flexible. Absolutely stunning location, yet you'd need to be super resilient to deal with high altitude and extremes in temperature.

Really cool museum! Everything is in spainish as well as English, 20 soles per person is a bit steep, but I thought it was worth it

Excellent museum and a great place to understand the sacred coca leaf

Had a great cup of pure chocolate.

Doesn't always open when it is meant to be open, at least on Sundays...

(Translated by Google) Interesting tour of the fantastic top floor but I would like them to add light suits (Original) Interesante recorrido el último piso fantástico pero me gustaría que agregen trajes de luces

Worth the visit! Our tour had us visit for two hours. During this time the president of the island (population 25 :)) gave us a detailed explanation of how the island was constructed with reeds (see picture). When big boats would go by you could observe how the island would gently sway in the waves of the lake! It felt very safe but a bit surreal. The families were very nice and even showed us how their homes and church were built. Please keep in mind that the islands are very dependant on tourism to subsist! This is a double-edge sword. You see how many things are catered to tourists but you also have to recognize that this is how the Urus are able to maintain their culture! Visit with an open mind and do try to purchase souvenirs that will help support the community. As is the case in most of Peru, be sure to bring S1 for the restrooms! ;)

This is sadly just a major tourist trap now. Whatever they used to be, now it is pandering to foreigners and travelers. You can't even really say at least you see the lake, as you don't go out very far. If you do go, don't take a tour. Just book a collectivo at the docks.

Unique experience. You get an introduction on how these little reed islands were constructed. This is a community relying on fishing and tourism. A nicely made table runner sells for 80 soles after a bit of haggling. At the airport, a similar one costs over 250 soles. The group will be divided into smaller ones, you will then get invited to have a look at their homes, you can take pictures, after that the locals will sell you their assorted products. We had the optional reed boat ride for 10 soles each. Cash only when you're there. Each little island will have their opportunity to welcome tourists and sell their products.

The overall landscapes and the 2 minutes of explanations about how the islands are build can be interesting. Don't pay to go there though, since it will probably be a mandatory stop if you go to Amantani or Taquile. The main purpose is to make your buying things there. Hard to make the difference between the natural and the artificial : People claim that they live there, but other information say the opposite.

(Translated by Google) Lake Titicaca, the highest in the world, in a region called Puno, is located on the island of Uros. A group of people with a unique life, live on islands built artificially with titira, a kind of reeds that grow in the waters of the lake. Ancestral knowledge transmitted from generation to generation, ranging from the construction of the floating islands themselves, as well as the construction of houses and boats, all made with the same ecological material. The women dressed in multicolored clothes, receive the visitors in a friendly manner, offering textiles made by themselves. The dragon head design boats are so eye-catching and you have the privilege of being able to sail in them rowing. For the rowers are themselves, the aurochs who sing happily as they advance in coordinated rowing. It is my true privilege to visit this unique place in the world. (Original) El el Lago Titicaca, el más alto del mundo, en uba región llamada Puno, de encuentra la isla delos Uros. Un grupo de personas con una vida singular, viven en islas construidas en forma artificial con titira, una especie de juncos que crecen en las aguas del lago. Conocimiento ancestral transmitido de generación en generación, que va desde la construcción de las propias islas flotantes, así como la construcción de las viviendas y los barcos, todo hecho con el mismo material ecológico. Las mujeres vestidas con ropa multicolor, reciben amistosa ente a los visitantes ofreciendo textiles elaborados por ellas mismas. Las lanchas con diseño de cabeza de dragón son tan llamativas y se tie e el privilegio de poder navegar en ellas a remo. Pues los remeros son ellos mismo s, los uros que van can ando alegremente mientras avanzan a remo coordinado. Es I verdadero privilegio ñider visitar ese lugar único en el mundo.

(Translated by Google) These islands are inhabited by the Uros, one of the oldest cultures on the continent which dates back to times before the Incas. The inhabitants of this floating community claim to own the waters of Lake Titicaca. The subsistence of the Uros community is based on fishing and hunting; They are also dedicated to the production of woolen tapestry fabrics and the stuffing of animals It is very interesting to see the social structure, how they solve their differences, which in severe cases consist of splitting the reed island and the inducers must be separated from the rest. (Original) Estas islas son habitadas por los Uros, una de las culturas más antiguas del continente la cual se remonta a épocas anteriores a los Incas. Los habitantes de esta comunidad flotante afirman ser dueños de las aguas del Lago Titicaca. La subsistencia de la comunidad de los Uros se basa en la pesca y la caza; también se dedican a la elaboración de tejidos de tapices de lana y al disecado de animales Es muy interesante ver la estructura social, como solventan sus diferencias que en los casos graves consisten en partir la isla de totora y los inductores se deben separar del resto.

(Translated by Google) For me it is too touristy an approach. They sell you what once was. That it must have been wonderful, but it is no longer. However, they try to deceive you by saying that it is so. On the other hand, I ended up with the feeling that someone exploits the need of many people without any scruple or serious regulation. So many descendants are used and perhaps ridiculed by dramatizing something that does not represent a current reality and that departs from the true culture and historical identity of the Uros Islands. (Original) Para mí es un enfoque demasiado turístico. Te venden lo que alguna vez fue. Que sin duda debió ser maravilloso, pero que ya no es. Sin embargo tratan de engañarte diciendo que así es. Por otro lado terminé con la sensación de que alguno explota la necesidad de muchas personas sin ningún tipo de escrúpulo ni regulación seria. Por lo que muchos descendientes son utilizados y quizas ridiculizados teatralizando algo que no representa una realidad actual y que se aleja de la verdadera cultura e identidad histórica de las Islas Uros.

(Translated by Google) Simply majestic (Original) Simplemente majestuoso

(Translated by Google) The landscape is beautiful, as a walk to observe the floating islands is very good. However it shows that they have lost their own customs and it is already very commercial. They pressure you to buy and that is not bad considering that they need sources of income, but it loses authenticity, since it is perceived that it is not so interesting to explain their culture but to sell. (Original) El paisaje es hermoso, como paseo para observar las islas flotantes está muy bien. Sin embargo se nota que han perdido costumbres propias y ya es muy comercial. Te presionan para comprar y eso no es malo teniendo en cuenta que ellos necesitan fuentes de ingreso, pero pierde autenticidad, ya que se percibe que no interesa tanto explicar su cultura sino vender.

Interesting museum with the history of coca, its historical and modern day uses, including instructions on how to process the leaves to obtain cocaine and crack. The tour starts with a short video, English and Spanish. On the top floor there are costumes, which you can also try on and have a photo taken. Entrance fee is 10 Soles.

Very interesting history of the use of Coca....and the misuse of the processed products. You will learn about the proper use if this is incredible plant by native Americans. Wish I could take some home. It's loaded with calcium. Who knew!?

Unique place to touch the true knowledge about the sacredness of the coca plant, its beneficial applications and distorted misuses. Rare collection of magnificent costumes and account of the traditional ways of aymara people. Do not miss it.

Really interesting museum about the history and current use of coca, with good English descriptions and a lot of information on local customs. There is a special exhibitions of costumes that are used in Puno's Candelaria festival on the first floor. S/10 entry.

A great small museum in the heart of Puno where you can learn about the traditional uses of the coca leave and it's place in the Peruvian history. Even more interestingly, you can see examples of the different costumes and dances that are part of the folklore of the region. The museum owner can tell you a lot about local traditions and how they are celebrated today. Highly recommend visiting this museum while in Puno!

Interesting museum with the history of coca, its historical and modern day uses, including instructions on how to process the leaves to obtain cocaine and crack.

Not only are the exhibits extremely interactive and fun, but the staff is beyond friendly and do a great job of explaining things.

interesting museum about the history & use of coca. Learn about the proper use if this is incredible plant by native Americans.

Interesting little stop for a bit of history if you have some time to burn.

Super ingesting museum where you can understand how important was and is coca for the andean culture. Also you learn about other interesting historical facts as well as the properties and benefits of coca for the human body. If it wasn't enough two engaging and more contemporaneous topics as how is cocaine made and the origin of coca cola. Last but not least an explanation and exhibition of different dances and costumes of the andean's folklore

Cost 10 solas to get in but unless ure super interested to learned about the tea leaves you should skip the place.

Lots of explanations about Coca Small place with non relevant artifacts, so not only Coca

Knowledgable place

(Translated by Google) A museum that you should visit if you are in Puno ... very interesting (Original) Un museo que deben visitar si están en Puno..muy interesante

Interesting, but the information content is shocking for a Museum. Sometimes doubtful, others plain wrong, referencing Wikipedia as their source (??!!). The carnaval costumes were the best part.

It’s a small three floor museum. Mostly boards show the Coca culture and history. But plenty of information. Third floor is display major costume for Puno area dances. I was welcomed heartedly. When I got to the third floor the museum staff tried to let me know that I could choose one set of the displayed costume to try on. She also took pictures for me with my cellphone. It’s a lovely experience.

(Translated by Google) If you are in Puno, visit it! There are not many places to go in the city of Puno and although when you enter there is a lot of info to read (there are whole panels written from floor to ceiling) they also show you a video about the typical parties (it can be in English or Spanish) and in Upstairs there are typical costumes that are what they wear and let them try on. That was fun!! (Original) Si estás por Puno pasa a visitarlo!

(Translated by Google) The museum is small and the tour is self-guided (one goes reading the posters). You can watch a half old video about traditional dances of Peru.

Simple museum, gives an overview of the history and use of coca, which was quite informative. Explanations in Spanish and English. The upper floor also has some traditional clothing to show, less interesting given the lack of explanations. You also get a free coca tea. 30-60min for a visit

Great little museum, really interesting. Appreciated the included mate de coca.

(Translated by Google) Cool. Well explained. I saw two of the videos that put you at the beginning of the tour and it's almost the same as you see in the museum, obviously in the museum there is more curious information and information. In the end they allow you to use some of the costumes of the typical dances, which is very fun. The entrance has a cost of 10 soles. (Original) Genial. Bien explicado.

Short trip from Puno harbor. We got a presentation of how the island is built and how does it not sink (all was in Spanish) and for 10 soles we could be part of small boat ride with traditional boat with the president of the island where we collected some reeds and tasted them as well.

One of the most unique places I have seen. A must do when visiting Lake Titikaka.

Uros is known for its floating islets made of totora reeds, which grow in the lake. The views are lovely and it's nice to meet locals who speak about their way of life here. However, like most reviewers, I felt that they're being exploited.

Beautiful village. Recommend

The Uros floating islands are located in a small corner of the world’s highest altitude navigable lake, Lake Titicaca. There is no other place like this on earth. You can shooth emazing photos. Uros people preserved a floating lifestyle for many hundreds of years. You can take boats from Puno to the floating islands. Very interesting and unique experience. Must do attraction.

The Isla Flotantes was fascinating and gives an insight as to how people live and how they continue to maintain these islands. The trip takes you out of the city to experience a very different lifestyle, if only for a brief moment. We travelled from Puno by boat across to the islands which doesn't take long (40mins or so) The islanders are friendly and welcoming and show you their ways of living and invite you into their homes as part of the tour and to show you around. Great ride on the mercedes benz!

We loved our visit to the floating islands! The woman who showed us around her home was so hospitable and welcoming. She had us try on her clothes and get a picture. She spoke multiple languages. She was a very hard worker raising kids while maintaining the home and making souvenirs while her husband spent the day fishing and collecting trees to keep the home afloat. She was very proud of her home. It was a humbling experience. We loved it!

(Translated by Google) Incredible culture. My trip to Peru had as objective to visit Uros Islands, all my expectations were met. Fascinating the way it is built. There is a plant on the island that people use to strengthen their teeth. Wonderful crafts. Amazing colors I would like to go back. It's really worth it. Fantastic look. (Original) Cultura incrível. Meu passeio para o Peru tinha como objetivo conhecer Ilhas de Uros, todas as minhas expectativas foram atendidas. Fascinante a forma como é construída.

(Translated by Google) It is the first tourist visit to Lake Titicaca, you have to understand that, it is a tourist attraction. But it is very interesting how the floating islands are built, their boats and the customs that they used to have. The custom is to buy souvenirs from the inhabitants to help them financially. (Original) Es la primera visita turística del Lago Titicaca, hay que entender eso, es una atracción turística. Pero resulta muy interesante como se construyen las islas flotantes, sus embarcaciones y las costumbres que tenían antiguamente. La costumbre es comprar recuerdos a los habitantes para ayudarles económicamente.

(Translated by Google) Maybe I went with too many expectations or expecting something much more surprising, but the truth is that my experience in the Uros Floating Islands was quite poor. An absolutely make-up and soulless show, so much so that I had the impression that when night came, they took off their uniforms and went home by bus like someone leaving a boring job. The islands are several, each of them belong to small communities of 3 or 4 families that have built their rooms, kitchens and others on those structures made of reed (totoras) that float and are anchored, but that can well move from place . The island that each one plays is in luck and this has probably influenced my experience as well. The truth is that I felt badly received, as if they didn't want me to be there. The guide who received us, something like the leader of the community, gave us an initial talk where he told us more about his story, he was the only one who showed a little more charisma, but only because everything he told us had at last Sell ​​us an excursion to other islands, more private, to spend the night there. Then they took us to see the houses. A woman from the community with very little desire showed us just where she lived and how she did it. He seemed to recite from memory a text he had already said thousands of times. Finally, they took us to their craft stalls to sell us the things they made, but always very reluctantly. In closing, we did not want to go to the island as the "capital" officer of the complex because it had a cost, so we decided to wait on the island for the tour to end and we came to find the rest of the contingent. But it was not like that. They insisted so much, but so much, that we got on the boat that really was an ordeal and we had to go up to meet it. The capital island has some places to eat, a couple of places to sleep, but the same sadness that we saw in the others. I repeat, it was probably my one-off experience, but I would not recommend it. I am convinced that a few years ago it had magic and warmth, today it is a bland and soulless show that does not justify the investment. (Original) Tal vez fui con demasiadas expectativas o esperando algo mucho más sorprendente, pero lo cierto es que mi experiencia en las Islas Flotantes de los Uros fue bastante pobre. Un show absolutamente maquillado y sin alma, tanto así que tuve la impresión de que al llegar la noche, se quitaban los uniformes y volvían a su casa en bus como quien sale de un trabajo aburrido. Las islas son varias, cada una de ella pertenecen a pequeñas comunidades de 3 o 4 familias que han construido sus habitaciones, cocinas y demás sobre esas estructuras hechas de caña (totoras) que flotan y que están ancladas, pero que bien pueden moverse de sitio. La isla que le toca a cada uno va en suerte y probablemente ello también haya influido en mi experiencia. La verdad es que me sentí mal recibido, como si no tuvieran ganas de que esté ahí. El guía que nos recibió, algo así como el líder de la comunidad, nos brindó una charla inicial donde nos contó más de su historia.Él fue el único que mostró algo más de carisma, pero sólo porque todo lo que nos contó tenía por fin vendernos alguna excursión hacia otras islas, más privadas, para pasar la noche allí. Luego nos llevaron a conocer las casas. Una mujer de la comunidad con muy pocas ganas nos mostró así nomás donde vivía y cómo lo hacía. Parecía recitar de memoria un texto que ya había dicho miles de veces. Finalmente, nos llevaron a sus puestos de artesanías para vendernos las cosas que hacían, pero siempre de muy mala gana. Para cerrar, nosotros no queríamos ir a la isla que oficial de "capital" del complejo porque tenía costo, así que decidimos esperar en la isla a que la excursión finalizase y nos viniese a bsucar con el resto del contingente. Pero no fue así. Insistieron tanto, pero tanto a que nos subamos a la lancha que realmente fue un suplicio y tuvimos que subir para ir a conocerla. La isla capital tiene algunos lugares para comer, un par de lugares para dormir, pero la misma tristeza que vimos en las demás. Repito, probablemente haya sido mi experiencia puntual, pero yo no la recomendaría. Estoy convencido que hace unos años tenía magia y calidez, hoy es un espectáculo sin alma e insulso que no justifica la inversión.

Good, if you like being guilted out of your money. The community is definitely just for touristic pleasure. It is so obvious that the people don't live on the islands. It is most definitely a Tourist Trap - We went there on an afternoon out of interest for the way the islands are built and maintained: Instead we got a theme park with child labour: Children doing their families bidding and begging for money. Grotesquely persistent "island people" trying to sell you rugs and other textiles produced in mass on the main land. But enough is not enough. These people are not thankful for the money the tourists bring - They are not reliant on the money from the "artesanal goods" to buy medicine as they claim - An absolutely appalling thing to insinuate by the way! It would be better if they would just speak truth and say that nobody lives on the islands anymore and it is all just theater to keep what was once real alive - A spark of honesty might just help save this increasingly unpopular attraction. Word of mouth amongst travelers is already very negative. Bad news travels fast.

Really interesting museum about the history and current use of coca, with good English descriptions and a lot of information on local customs.

Costumes are amazing. My kid liked the dress very much. Design are mind blowing.🤩🤩🤩
