Great views but dress more warmly than you think you need.

It was colder than I expected, but the views were spectacular when explained. I got bumped from a cloudy night to another night, so there were more people than would have been ideal. The explanations were laser assisted and the views thru the telescopes of proxima centauri were great (amongst other views). The guides helped get my phone to get a pic of the moon via the telescope. before the even i had learned how to use night mode on my phone and got a great pic of the milk way as a result - because i knew what i was looking at.

Ok

It's ok, I thought it was a serious astronomy tour but it is more about nice pics with the milky way behind, wine and snacks and some stargazing. All tours are like that though. No one is doing the very far away tours. Everyone stays about 10km from San pedro only and you still have the city glare. People were nice and passionate about it though.

This tour truly exceeded...

This tour truly exceeded our expectations. Ilian was a very knowledgeable, experienced and passionate guide with an excellent command of English. We learnt a lot about the stars in the southern hemisphere. There was a varied assortment of sweet and savoury snacks. We went home with wonderful photos. To top it all, there was a little surprise act included too.

My Dreaming of Milky Way Come True

My main purpose of traveling to Chile this time was to do stargazing. So, I reserved 3 different stargazing tours for the 3 consecutive nights I stayed. This tour was a success, and the other two tours were canceled due to clouds. The team did a superb job in explaining what we could see and taking photos for everyone with a spectacular Milky Way background. This one tour gave me everything I dreamed of for this trip. Thank you a lot.

Must do star gazing, check the lunar cycle of you can .

A must do event. Scored 4 because the big moon lights up the sky, no fault of the organisers. Nonetheless fin, but suggest you look at the lunar cycle if you want a clear sky with no moonlight. Enthusiastic guides, but a late night. We had fun. Recommend. And you get great photos at the end, thank you

Unreliable

Tour company allowed us to book and contacted us 13 hours later (the day of) telling us there was no availability. Therefore we were unable to book an additional tour.

Nobody picked us up. We were just waiting for a call/email/whatsapp and no response. Requested a refund, and they rejected the refund as well. This is a scam, stay away

Beautiful sky and great learning

The sky was absolutely beautiful and the information was delivered well. Our group learned a lot about space. Tha pace of.going from station to station was a little quick, but I really enjoyed the tour nonetheless.
