5.00My 18 year old son and I thoroughly enjoyed this activity. Our guide Alan was very informative and told us some entertaining Greek Mythology tales about the constellations. I feel pretty confident that I can now point out the Southern Cross and the Scorpion!
Excellent stargazing experience

5.00From the moment I booked for the experience all went smoothly. Lynette contacted me to confirm the weather for our outing. On Sunday morning she confirmed all is well. She arrived at our guesthouse. The experience was absolutely fantastic. Her knowledge and telescope was amazing. She is a lovely friendly lady. We will be back in September/October. Thank you for an experience of lifetime.

5.00It was a great experience (actually my first one), very didactic and complete. I had the privilege of seeing the constellation of Orion and Scorpio at the same time.
Best experience ever!

5.00My fiancée and I have never done stargazing before, so this was an exciting new experience for us both! The guide was very friendly and talkative which made the stargazing even better! The guide thought us a lot about the fascinating stars, galaxies, planets, constellations and globular clusters. If you find yourself in the Little Karoo, in Oudtshoorn, this is a MUST! Will recommend it to everyone!
