Yosemite nights : 90 - minutters stargazing og historier tur
Beskrivelse
Begynd dit stjernesøgende eventyr ved at møde din guide, så sæt dig tilbage og se, hvordan dalen forvandler sig. Tusindvis af stjerner dukker op, stjernebilleder skærpes i synet, og i den rigtige tid af året strækker Mælkevejen sig over hovedet. Lyt, mens din guide deler fængslende historier om vores menneskelige forbindelse til nattehimlen. Lær, hvorfor Venus og Jupiter skinner lysere end nogen stjerne på himlen. Brug dine hænder til at måle stjernerne, som polynesiske navigatører gjorde. Brug binoculars for at få et nærmere kig, så dykke endnu dybere med live teleskop visning! Hør fascinerende historier om universets historie og struktur, og hvordan vi har fundet mening, formål og glæde i det. Og glem ikke at holde øje med satellitter og skyde stjerner over hovedet!
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
På en klar, måneløs nat i Yosemite Valley, lyser himlen på en måde, som de fleste mennesker aldrig har set før. Du vil se langt flere stjerner, end du er vant til i byen, med store konstellationer som Orion og Big Dipper skiller sig ud klart, og i den rigtige sæson et tåget bånd af Mælkevejen strækker sig over himlen. Granitvægge af El Capitan og Half Dome bliver mørke silhuetter indrammer stjernerne, mens lyse planeter, Pleiaderne, og endda den svage Andromeda Galaxy vises med lidt vejledning og en laserpekker. Du vil sandsynligvis fange et par skydende stjerner eller satellitter, der drifter forbi, mens selve dalen er stille: kold luft falder ned fra klipperne, floden i baggrunden, og følelsen af, at næsten alle andre har gået i seng og forlod denne version af Yosemite kun for dig.

Very interesting night tour - was very clear night, great for star gazing and learning about starts and planets
Hey Anna, it was so great having you and glad you were able to join us :)
Had an amazing experience on this guided star-gazing trip. Zeke was very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. He made sure we all had a great time, serving us up with some interesting scientific facts, cultural stories, and some delicious hot chocolate. The meetup spot is also very convenient, in the Sentinal Bridge parking area, right next to the vast open space right in the middle of the valley. Views were awesome, even though we had a half moon, stars were still very clearly visible in the sky, and were mesmerizing behind the backdrop of Yosemite’s mountain peaks and Yosemite Falls. Definitely a worthwhile experience, good value for money.
Hey Auon, It was such a pleasure!! Definitely let me know if you end up getting that telescope!
We had a wonderful night of star gazing last night!! Zeke was knowledgeable, engaging and we enjoyed learning about the night sky. He took time to answer questions, point out different constellations and even sent us telescopic pictures of the night sky. He had chairs, blankets and even hot chocolate!! 😊 I’m would highly recommend this tour!!
Hey Bonnie, It was an absolute pleasure having you. Thank you so much for joining us and hope the rest of your time in Yosemite was amazing!
Zeke was fantastic! He was incredibly knowledeable and answered all of the questions our children had. The sky was beautiful and moon-less so the stars were really bright. He made hot chocolate for everyone that wanted it. The telescope that he brought was really neat too and we were able to see a galaxy. Worth it!
It was so great having you, thank you so much for coming!!
Our tour guide Zeke was awesome! Great views of the stars.
Hey Erica, It was so great having you and your family. Thanks for all your great questions, and hope you had a great trip home! All the best, Zeke
Great way to finished our day touring and exploring the park. The breathtaking scenery now highlighted at night.
We were so glad to have you :)
This was such a neat experience for the end of a long first day in Yosemite. We were offered chairs, or blankets to sit on, and hot cocoa. Our guide was friendly, accommodating, great with children, and a good storyteller. Our guide took an image of two galaxies colliding, located in a constellation some of their stories were centered upon and sent them to us to keep. I definitely recommend this to anyone, whether you’re going to Yosemite as a family, traveling solo, or with friends.
Hey Miyuki, Thank you for the kind words and it was so great having you!
Zeke was a wealth of information of the night sky to galactic portions. Not only over Yosemite but worldwide. Watching the sky grow dark in the meadow with the waterfall dimming in the foreground was perfect. Our small group was fully engaged and help add to the knowledge that Zeke shared. It was a perfect way to end our already amazing visit to Yosemite. Thank you Zeke
Hey Gloria, It was so great having you and Moses! You were both a pleasure to talk to. I will definitely have to check out Zeke's coffee as soon as I get a chance ;) Safe travels home!
This was an incredibly intimate experience and worth the price. Zeke is a great storyteller, conversationalist, and we really enjoyed the laser he used to point out the stars and constellations. His assistant, Lexi, was also very charming and sweet. One major highlight was how accommodating he was with my now fiancé. He filmed the proposal in front of the beautiful Yosemite Valley waterfalls! We’ll never forget this.
Hey Abi, It was such a pleasure having you, and we all felt honored that you shared your special night with us. Safe travels, and hope to see you next time you come to Yosemite!
Zeke is an awesome guide and very nice person. He is knowledgeable, helpful, entertaining and made the experience very enjoyable. I would book other adventurers with Zeke. Below are 2 picture from right before the stargazing as Zeke suggested we check these areas out while waiting for dark.
Hey Tammy, It was such a great time exploring the park with you and Scott. Can't wait to meet the grandkids if you ever end up bringing them out this way!! All the best, Zeke
