This is a truly Highlight-Experience: if you live in a big city then you will be amazed by the Southern Hemisphere Milky Way in it’s splendor. Imagine counting up to 6.000 naked-eye visible stars instead of the 30 that you may see in the urban light polluted sky – it is a big WOW!!!
We will go through the beauties of the night sky – looking for planets, stars, shooting stars, satellites, constellations and galaxies. We may elaborate on life outside Earth – based on Science and Philosophy, including the Fermi Paradox.
“Selfie-of-the-Stars”: an unforgettable picture of the group with the stars in the background taken with state-of-the-art photographic equipment will be handed over with resolution for social media usage (digital file).

5.00The experience with the Egon Filter guide is sensational. He is an excellent storytelling, was looking for this experience for a long time and he exceeded all my expectations. I'm thinking, including, of making the tour at another time of year to see the Milky Way in a different perspective. Long live Egon and this experience.

5.00The tour is amazing, it is a "travel" through the vastness of the universe, great for slowing down and contemplating the sky that we couldn't see in the city Egon is a great guide, photographer, storyteller, has a deep knowledge of what he is talking about

5.00Egon is an excellent guide and I recommend this experience with him to everyone. I've been on an astronomical tour in Atacama, and I can say, Egon has an unparalleled storytelling. The love and commitment he puts into his work is inspiring. At first, we are drawn to take a tour of the photos, and at the end, we go out enchanted with the whole history of the universe and teach and the photos are just a souvenir (because Egon is an excellent photographer). Immense gratitude!
Amazing!

5.00Incredible experience on the Astronomical Tour, which goes far beyond observing the sky. Storytelling makes everything even more engaging, connecting science, nature, and emotion in a unique way. Highlight also for the work of the guide Egon who, in addition to conducting the experience with mastery, records everything with an impressive look and technique. In addition to the images of an amazing sky recorded in memory are included breathtaking photographic records! Here at home was already for the portrait of the family's special moments.
View of a privileged sky.
