Blue Mountains Stargazing

Tom and Eleanor made such a great effort to make everyone comfortable. Then Tom's unfettered knowledge of the sky was what made the night. His patience and understanding with people of the group from various levels of understanding really sold it. From questions about the moon to technical descriptions as to why stars twinkle and planets do not... Something for experienced 'nerds' or first time stargazers a like

Amazing experience! Clear skies, and seeing moon craters through the telescope was incredible. Couldn’t spot other planets because of the bright moonlight, but it was still so worth it. The hot chocolate was a great start! The astrophotographer’s storytelling and insights into modern Hindu astrology were awesome. The hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Unique and unforgettable experience with breathtaking views of the Blue Mountains. Booked online with relative ease and received clear instructions on the meeting point. We got there on time, greeted by a friendly staff member who let us know our tour guide was running ten minutes late (they did also notify prior this may happen) but this posed no issue as our star gazing spot had the most incredible view of the sunset over the National Park. Our tour guide was an incredibly knowledgable and walked us through the map of the stars. We were a relatively small group which proved to be to our benefit as everyone got to take a turn looking into the telescope comfortably. The night was extremely clear so we got to see the moon, shooting stars, a variety of constellations, Saturn, Jupiter and even some far away galaxies. We also were served hot chocolates and given blankets. Just a recommendation to wear insect repellent because you are in the bush! Overall a great experience that is suitable for families or friends.

Star Gazing was amazing! Our hosts were really amazing and very accommodating. We were provided hot chocolate and blankets. Our hosts pointed out constellations, stars, nebulae and even the planets in the solar system. They also had a telescope setup and we could see Saturn, Jupiter, some stars and nebulae as well. The sky was very clear and we were able to see everything very clearly. Our hosts was a wonderful story teller, who explained the cultural roots and legends behind names and provided scientific insight about what we were looking at etc I would recommend bringing a beanie and wearing a couple extra layers and it gets quite cold.
