Unforgettable Experience - I went with my son to the planetarium and we loved it. First he started with a very dynamic explanation. Then we went to a dome and finally saw everything learned in the beautiful Cusco sky, not only with telescopes but with a laser that aimed at the stars directly and see the constellations. I'll definitely be back, it's an amazing experience.

Peru - I am from South America - The trip to the planetary of Cusco was amazing, besides knowing a lot about the constellations, we understand the history of Peru, its vegetation and customs alongside nature.

A MUST while in Cusco! - This was one of (if not THE) best of our experiences within Cusco. I've been to several planetariums (including one here in Washington, DC at the Air and Space Museum), but the staff at the Planetarium Cusco provide an experience like no other. I wish I could recall all names of those I encountered, but I remember Johana providing an informative, entertaining history of the Incas' view of the universe followed by Ana's comical, educational talk within the dome itself. The visit ended with an opportunity to look through multiple telescopes. For the first time, I saw many constellations in the southern hemisphere. An unforgettable experience I'll undoubtedly remember for the rest of my life!

Excellent visit to the Cusco Planetarium - If you are a lover of the starry skies, you cannot miss this experience in Cusco, but even if you don't know anything about the subject, the fantastic planetarium team will tell you about it with a lot of humor and dissemination. There you will learn many things about the Incas and their relationship with astronomy. Very good time and a different experience outside of mass tourism.

NURSING STUDENTS TAKE CUSCO PLANETARIUM - SUCH A INSIGHTFUL AND GREAT EXPERIENCE! IT WAS SUCH A GREAT WAY TO LEARN ABOUT ASTRONOMY AND LEARN ABOUT INCAN CULTURE AND HOW THEY NAVIGATED TIME AND STARS WITH THE STARS AND PLANETS ! THE TORU GUIDES WERE MAD FUNNY AND VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. THEY ARE GENUINE ASTRONOMY LOVERS AND THEY RUN THIS BUSINESS SOLELY BY THEN W/O GOVT AID UNLIKE MUCH PLANETARIUMS ! I SAY HELP SPREAD AND HELP THEIR LOCAL CUSCENIAN BUSINESS AND LOVE FOR ASTRONOMY!

Something different and fun - Super good and beautiful experience. You learn a lot about astrology and the Incas. We learned, we saw stars and constellations, and many constellations were explained to us. They are super attentive, they answer any questions and you can see the passion they have for what they do. I definitely recommend it for both adults and children. Something different and fun you can do in Cusco.

Costly and basic - It consists of a very basic talk of certain aspects of the Incas, a projection of the constellations and a view by a telescope. It's a very expensive visit. My Impression is that it's overrated.
