Cusco by Night: Planetarium Cusco, Dinner, and Pisco Sour

4.Cusco by Night: Planetarium Cusco, Dinner, and Pisco Sour

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

Start at 3 pm with hotel pickup and a guide such as Valentin or Kenny. See Cusco’s market and Plaza de Armas, enjoy a Pisco Sour, then head to Planetarium Cusco for Inca constellations and telescope viewing before dinner. The tour lasts about five hours. Planetarium entry costs an extra $25.

“Valentin was great! I would definitely recommend this tour for people who would like to get away from the areas geared toward tourists, and who want to explore parts of the city with someone familiar with its history and people. Another plus for me was that the planetarium we went to is family-owned, and the woman in charge is such a nerd in a good way! I learned a lot and would have booked another tour with Valentin, had I more time in Cusco.”

“Excellent half-day excursion from the cruise port. No worries, the guide/bus was waiting for us when we got off the boat. Excellent guide Olinka and driver, very attentive and professional. Two parts: first by high-speed boat to Balasta Island where we saw penguins, seals, birds, and starfish—it was WOW. Then in the National Park (desert) we visited beautiful beaches. Very comfortable bus, really a very nice tour. Strongly recommend.”

The pace was great and the sunset viewpoint was beautiful:) The vendor for the music show was closed, and that was why we picked this specific walking tour so that was disappointing. Our guide recommended a local dance show for after the tour, which we attended and loved. The restaurant where we ended the tour with a pisco sour toast was very cute!”

“I chose this tour as I didn’t have much time to sightsee on a business trip. There is a lot of travelling but it’s great to see the farms and coastline as you travel (and catch up on sleep!) and all of elements are well worth the journey. The pisco tasting is very generous and the views at the oasis are breathtaking. Highlight was still the penguins! My guide was really kind and friendly. I was the only one on the trip and he was very chatty. The only downside was I booked the trip hoping to be part of a social group. However I still really enjoyed it being…”

At Casa Intrepid, a restored Cusco venue with original Inca walls, a local English-speaking bartender guides you through three Pisco tastings and a hands-on Pisco Sour lesson. You will measure, shake, garnish, and drink your own cocktail in a small group of no more than 12 adults. The class starts at 4 pm and lasts about two and a half hours.

“We had arrived in Cusco that day and were not sure we would be up to the tour, however, being prepared for acclimation to the altitude helped. We loved every minute of this tour with Lily, she was informative, took our recent arrival into account, which was particularly helpful when we were climbing San Blas for the first time, and kept us entertained. We saw a wedding in the little church at the top of the hill great timing, and the Pisco lessons behind the bar at the Pisco Museum, were lots of fun, the bartenders very entertaining and really helpful, I even got a Mother's Day present. Great night…”

“My wife and I had an excellent day with our guide Rosie and driver Kenji. Kanji and Rosie were friendly, informative and did what was needed to make the day a great success. Kenji was also a safe, very calm driver. The car was very comfortable. The whole day was awesome-- the Nasca flight, the dune buggy as well as the lunch and Pisco tasting. Highly recommended but be prepared for a long day. We booked a private tour and this is also recommended as there is quite a bit of driving.”
