Puno Bed and Breakfasts - Reviews and Rates

We woke up Friday morning and after a brief stroll through town, left Aguas Calientes for the return trip to Cuzco. We met a family from Colorado on the train who had just completed the 4 day hike along the Inca Trail up to Machu Picchu. They had a college-age son who was accompanying his parents in their early 60's on what seemed to be a yearly...

We took a few days away from Cusco city to visit the Sacred Valley and more amazing Inca ruins at Pisac and Ollytamtambo, and then back to Cusco for a couple of days. On our final day the demonstrations we had seen throughout our stay in the city had built up to a huge rally in the central square. Many people from various trade unions, student g...

Wow, this place is fantastic! And just to think about 12mths ago I thought this place was only found on shlackers T-shirt!! We stayed in Puno which is a dodgy town nearby to the lake. Really dirty and dusty and very poor area. Day 2 here we met up early and went down to the dock on a Sth American Tuk tuk ' kinda like a rickshaw type bicycle whic...

Hi everyone! I am writing from Puno, Peru on the shores of Lake Titicaca. I got up very early this morning to take advantage of the hostal´s breakfast before taking a taxi to the Inca Express office. I was sad to leave Hostal Amarú and Cusco! I thought about every time Peter and I travel and we move on to a new place....we say "See ya, Moscow, w...

We´re in Puno now which is a city on the edge of Lake Titicaca in Peru. The big thing here is to go out on the lake and visit the various islands and people who live there. We spent a full day today on the water in our private boat, beginning at the floating reed islands. A long time ago a group of indigenous people were chased from the shores o...

I arrived in Puno and decided it was gut check time. Floating Islands of the Uros or connect straight to Arequipa. I decided that although it could be a tourist trap, living on a floating island made of reeds would make for an interesting excursion. I checked into a cheap hotel and wandered around looking at prices and getting acquainted with th...

hi friends! i hope you´re all settling into the summer, particularly those of you graduates who are getting real jobs and real lives. i´m currently in peru and despite the simplicity of that statement, it has been quite the adventure to get here. i got to the airport only to find out that with my salvadoran passport i needed a visa to get into b...

The bus to Puno started so well but alas it wasn{t to last as 2 hours from Puno we broke down. Everyone got off the bus and waited while the drive looked under various parts of the bus and banged at it with a small spanner and then disappearing to go and find a mechanic. Me and Sarah sat in the sun for a bit, then moved to the shade, then as the...

I took a trip to Puno, about eight hours from Cusco. It was amazing, these are the pictures from that adventure. "Lake Titicaca, oh Lake Titicaca It's between Bolivia and Peru Lake Titicaca, oh Lake Titicaca With waters so tranquil and blue Lake Titicaca, oh Lake Titicaca Why do we sing of it's fame? Lake Titicaca, oh Lake Titicaca 'Cause we rea...
