Questions & Answers
What is the best time of year to visit Lake Titicaca?
The best time to visit Lake Titicaca is during the dry season, from April to November. During these months, you’ll experience clear, sunny days with average temperatures between 20°C (68°F) during the day and 4°C (39°F) at night. While the sun is intense at this altitude, the weather is ideal for island exploration and outdoor activities. The peak tourist months are July and August, so consider visiting in shoulder seasons (April-May or September-October) for fewer crowds while still enjoying favorable weather conditions.
What should I pack for a 3-day Lake Titicaca tour?
Essential items include warm layers (thermal underwear, fleece jacket, windproof outer layer), as temperatures can vary dramatically between day and night. Pack sun protection (high SPF sunscreen, hat, sunglasses) due to the intense high-altitude sun, comfortable walking shoes, and a small backpack for day trips. Don’t forget any necessary medications, a refillable water bottle, and respectful clothing for visiting communities (long pants, modest tops). Camera, power bank, and basic toiletries are recommended. A small gift for your host family is appreciated but not required.
