Planet Voyage is an album by the German cross-cultural new age band Cusco. It was released originally in 1982, and is currently available under the Prudence label.

This album contains several of the tracks which were later reworked for the Mystic Island release, including Milky Way, Pisces, and Leo. The album also contains the track Venus, which utilizes what would become a signature synthesized panflute sound, and also electric rock guitars, and which has been featured on multiple compilations of Cusco's early material. The Prudence album release shows the original music copyright date as 1984, and many of the more relatively reliable Cusco discographies show a 1983 release date, but Arista consistently claims 1982 as its release year, and those other discographies do not show a date specifically for the Arista release.
