We were the only 2 of us taking the tour and they did everything they could to make this an amazing trip. Our guide was amazing and he did everything to accommodate us in every way. Even when that meant helping us with hiring a taxi to go atop the mountain to take in the beautiful sight of the Copacabana harbor! Highly recommended!
Sun Island is a way more beautiful than I expected it to be. A real jewel. You feel like in the middle of the Adriatic sea in Croatia well, I am a Croatian!, not in the middle of the Titicaca lake tons of flowers, colors, Mediterranean-type flora, feels totally different than Altiplano vistas you get used to around La Paz. The trip by bus from La Paz was great the entrance to Copacabana spectacular, and a lunch in local restaurant with a view of the lake and a taste of sopa chairo and a trout just excellent. Our guide was excellent Mr. Rivera, and as there were only two of us with him - we had actually a private tour. Highly recommended trip.
