Kayaking to Uros Islands

I had a wonderful time with Edison on the kayaking trip to the Uros Islands. It was beautiful and there was a lot of wildlife to se. Edison was very informative and professional, and he explained the history of the Lake Titicaca region as well as how the islands are built. The hotel in the Uros Islands was very comfortable and the food was good. I had a great time!
