A Brilliant Night Out

We loved using the telescopes to see Saturn's rings, four of Jupiter's moons, a gas nebula and Mars. The information given about various parts of the night sky was interesting and clear, delivered with a certain amount of humour. Thoroughly enjoyable and educational. The time in the hot pool, lying back on hammocks gazing at the sky we now knew so much more about, was pure bliss.

A night to remember

Even though the evening was cloudy, this was still an amazing experience. The staff was awesome, funny, knowledgeable, and personable. The stars finally peeked out and we were able to see Saturn. The hot pool soak was relaxing and warm, even in the chilly night air. My two teenage daughters loved it as well

Great tour, made the most of a cloudy night

Tekapo Star Gazing did a great job with the tour, very warm and welcoming. Were greeted with hot chocolate when we arrived. Guide did a great job being attentive to how the clouds were moving to make the most of our viewing experience on a not so clear night.
