This isn’t just stargazing, it’s a journey back to wonder. Hosted by the Deshmukh family in a peaceful Sahyadri village, this one-night experience blends astronomy, nature, and authentic rural life. Watch the sunset during a refreshing lake dip with floats, then eat a traditional Maharashtrian dinner
As night falls, a professional astronomer guides you through constellations, planets, and deep-sky objects using telescopes and laser pointers. Later, gather around a crackling campfire and indulge in our signature midnight chocolate fondue and s’mores, followed by warm Maggi or soup under a star-filled sky.
Wake up to birdsong and a hearty village breakfast. Join the Rice Life Cycle Workshop, where you’ll learn how rice is grown and harvested by local farmers. Every detail, from your food to your hosts, is real, heartfelt, and eco-conscious.
More than a getaway, this experience reconnects you with nature, community, and the quiet beauty of the cosmos—just a few hours from Mumbai.
