Amazing evening with Tom guiding us through the universe. Saturn, Magellanic Clouds, Southern Cross, Shooting Stars
My son wants to go "talk to astronomer Tom" every week now.

Stellar experience, highly recommended. Easy to book. Excellent communication from the team regarding inclement weather with options for how it was handled. We opted for the indoor planetarium experience but were luckily blessed with last minute clear enough skies for proper stargazing. Tom was an amazing astronomer, full of useful information and patient with my son's questions. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Nightsky on a different perspective. Beautiful experience with kids who are very keen in Austronomy. Moon was super close and real. However, wish we knew there was only 1 planet Saturn we got to see this evening. Next time I will look for midnight to early morningtimings to cover more. Overall, a lifetime memory ✨️

Just an amazing night with the Stars 🌟Constellations +✨Milky Way🌌 and Saturn🪐😍❤️ Clear skies allowed us to marvel with the above. Prash and Amol, the Astronomers present, were engaging and gave us plenty of interesting info. It was windy and cold but it was all worth it, the hot chocolate provided at the end : priceless! Just a special thanks to Caroline and Dimitri for the initiative, will be talking about it, will be showing the photos and for sure l'll be back. I want to wish them and their Team all the very best, always. Celestial regards 🌌🎇🌠 Paula🤓

Fantastic… the astronomer was very knowledgeable and calm. Saskia, who was our host, was very caring with us and the special needs we had. Of course we can’t control the weather but when our tour was moved to another day a refund for provided for those who could not make the new date. I can’t recommend this enough.
A great night viewing the night skies!

Our primary guide was Nathan assisted by Pasha. They were both very well informed, helpful and friendly. We were fortunate to have a clear night, so visibility was excellent, assisted by the telescope. The walk from the carpark to viewing site was very dark, so I would suggest you bring a torch or headlamp.
Celestial fun.

We've done a few of these Stargazing experiences and this one was excellent. Our guide Nathan was extremely knowledgeable and informative. A small thing but the supply of warm blankets was a nice touch.
Long weekend in Blue Mountains with friends.

The team were amazing. They had a cloudy night and still managed to help us see the stars as the clouds passed by. Not an easy thing to achieve. I was surprised by how many stars I could see actually. I assumed you needed to go deep into country NSW to see anything worth while. But that was not the case. If you need to see some stars but dont want the long drive, a cheeky drive to the blue mountains is worthwhile. Paul was a wealth of information as well, and the team were fab on the night. Hot chocolate for the win as well.
Terrific way to see and learn about the night sky

A really well organised and knowledgeable team teach you lots about the night sky and let you see stars “up close”. The session is a combination of talks, telescope viewings and hot chocolate - a great combo.
