LAKE TITIACA 🇵🇪 South America's Most SURREAL Destination? (Puno + Copacabana Travel Guide )

We explored both sides of Lake Titicaca, from the floating Uros islands in Peru to the beachy town of Copacabana in Bolivia. Along the way, we met the incredible Uros people, faced a surprise border crossing challenge, and ended up in a place that felt more Caribbean than high-altitude lake. This was one of the most unexpected and beautiful journeys we’ve taken in South America. 📞 5% off of Holafly eSIMS with code TOURISTTOLOCAL: https://holafly.sjv.io/RGdLDv 🏨 Where we stayed in Copacabana: https://expedia.tpx.li/nx7zIiDQ *Looking for tours in Lake Titicaca?
