TOUR SUASI ISLAND
Suasi Island is approximately
43 hectares and it is located on the so called Major of
the Titicaca Lakes at 2 and a half hours from Puno, 70
kilometres going by the Lake and 167 kilometres going
along the highway, at a height of 3810 metres above sea
level. It is a private island where ecological activities,
such as treks on which you will be able to watch the four
South American Cameloids, birds, Andean cultivations and
livestock breeding, are organised. You can also take part
on cultural manifestations, not to mention the experience
of tasting the exquisite Novo Andean cuisine, prepared
with local organic produce. It is a place where it is
possible to admire the immensity of the lake and where
to enjoy the night under a beautiful sky in harmony between
man and nature.
