Lake Titicaca
Peru
Peru
Concierge.com's insider take:
On the Peru-Bolivia border, Lake Titicaca is the world's highest commercially navigable lake (12,500 feet above sea level). At night, its star-littered sky has a hallucinatory clarity, and it's not surprising that the place is sacred to locals (according to legend, it is the birthplace of the Incas). The Uros islands were constructed from "totora" reeds by the Uros people so they could escape the Incas; today, a few hundred descendants still live on the islands. Take the hour-long boat ride from Puno to observe this unique way of life.
