| SAILING ON LAKE TITICACA |
According to most of our clients' comments, if this lake would be located in any other developed country in the world, it would be filled with: people in jet-skis, wind-surfers and hydrofoils. In our experience, there is no better way to enjoy Lake Titicaca than sailing with local sailboats navigating freely its blue-cobalt waters and - prefereable - camping on its shores. Please contact us sending your schedule, expectations and we will organize you the best sail trip on the sacred Lake Titicaca. No previous sea kayaking experience is required, although life-vest are provided, clients should know how to swim. Please contact us using our

| ARCHAEOLOGICAL TRIPS |
Agriculture
and farming helps them to organize their society, families and villages
politically stable are formed, and the dependence on the agriculture and
nature make them to develop a kind of animism, that will became their
religion. Generically called Aymaras, three main lines of inhabitants
occupied the highlands: Chiripas, Wancaranis, and Tiwanaco. Around the
time of Christ (discovered objects in Tiwanaco date from 1572 BC to 1200AD),
the Aymaras find the need to have spetial places for their gods and all
together start the building of the temples in Tiwanaco (Kalasasaya, Kantatallita,
Akapana, Kerikala, Putuni and Pumapunku). The Tiwanacus develop sciences
like natural medicine, physics including hydraulic, acoustic, astronomy,
and get very skillful on architecture and other crafts. They lived a very
peaceful and well-organized existence with no kings or individual leaders
but a group of priests and old wise men, some people called that: “the
perfect socialism”.
For an inexplicable reason they abandon their city during the Eleventh century AD. And create many small familiar groups called “señorios” They will become later the villages of this days. The Incas appear like a hundred years later but stared no longer that 60-80 years in the bolivian territory when the Spaniards arrive in the Andes at the end of the fifteenth century, starting the colonial time of the Andes, and lasting until the beginning of the nineteenth century when one by one all of the Andean Countries become independent.
