★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 75 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $95Our pick

Explore Cusco after dark with a local guide, Inca star lore, telescopes, dinner, and a Pisco Sour for $95 per person.

“The Cusco by Night tour was an excellent beginning to our trip in Peru. Kenny showed us around the market and gave a tour of the Plaza de Armas, then we went up to the best roof top to view the city as it was coming alive at night, and tried our first Pisco Sour. The planetarium is small (and cold!) but Kenny and the planetarium crew are very passionate about the stars and it showed. Would highly recommend.”

Explore Inca constellations at Cusco Planetarium, then use professional telescopes for a short, memorable night under Peru’s southern sky.

“Pretty decent and enjoyable experience. The app does say the tour goes for 4 hours but we were barely there an hour and a half (2 hours including transportation) so we were expecting to see a little more, but it was still a very enjoyable experience and a nice thing to do on an evening in Cusco.”
