I'm interested in visiting the floating islands of Lake Titikaka - Amanti and Taquile, in particular, with an overnight stay in Amanti w/a family. From all the info I've read, they suggest not booking tours with travel agencies. And to just book the arrangments with locals. Unfortunately, I do not have much time to spend there. Only 2 days and 1 night. So I am tempted to book in advance with a travel agency. What are my chances of being able to walk to the dock early in the morning to arrange for a trip that day with the locals? And how do you distinguish the tour boats from the local boats?
