Plaza de Armas
We return to the streets and walk to the main square of Cusco, where the central topics of learning will be, the Cusco cathedral basilica dedicated to the virgin of the assumption and built between the years 1560 and 1654 with a curious mixture of baroque, gothic and Renaissance styles. We will also talk about Tupac Amaru ll, an Inca descendant who carried out, the first great indigenous revolution in Latin America between 1780 and 1782 and whose body was tortured and dismembered in the central part of the main square. After we had learned some interesting facts, we headed to a local cafe and tried the famous Peruvian cocktail: Pisco sour! Pisco sours are made with a grape brandy called Pisco and then whipped with lemon juice, syrup, and egg white. We will also try the Maracuya sour, an alternative similar to the Pisco sour and that is quickly gaining many followers. There are also many delicious non-alcoholic options.

Angela's Way
Our guide Angela is what you need for this tour. Patient, kind and really sweet. She meet us at our hotel and explained what we wanted to know are far as safety precautions. That right there was phenomenal. While walking around the market, we didn't feel pressured to buy anything. It was all natural. From the chocolate, to the bread that we snacked on while walking, to the special juice. That's a must try! We got history on the Incas Empire along with some of the churches that stood strong against the earthquakes. We then went and tried the famous Pisco sour on a beautiful rooftop with view that you'll have to see for yourself to believe. We then traveled to the planetarium where we enjoyed a night under the stars. To end the tour we had pollo and fries. She made sure that we made it back to our hotel lobby and we couldn't have been more happier with her as our tour guide. Our experience was during the winter months so I strongly recommend bringing a sweater for later in the night.
Response from the operator: We are so glad that you experience with Angela our charismatic, patient and knowledgeable. We are trying all the time to give the best possible to our tourists

A fun, and informative, night out in Cusco.
This tour provided for me an opportunity to enjoy many of the highlights of Cusco n the short time that I had. I got to see the historical highlights of Plaza de Armas, the wonders of the southern skies at the planetarium, and the gastro-intestinal curiosities of the local market. The best part was Eric, the guide. Spending the evening with him felt like spending the evening with a friend, a huge benefit for someone traveling on their own. I would definitely recommend this tour for someone who, like me, has little time but wants to see the highlights!
Response from the operator: We are very happy that this experience in Cusco has been very enriching and pleasant for you, Andrea. We will continue to work hard to continue creating positive experiences for all of our customers.

City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors cost?
+
Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors take?
+
Plan for about 6.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cusco is not rushed.
Is City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cusco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does City Tour with Planetarium and Peruvian Flavors start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cusco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cusco?
+
On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Peruvian Cooking Class Cocktails and Market Tour in Cusco, Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cusco?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cusco?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
