Great experience - It was a very interesting and nice experience. The guide was very friendly and seemed professional. You should definitely wear warm clothes because it was very cold.

A night to remember✨ - It was one of our most interesting experiences here in Tenerife. We really enjoyed the activity and learned a lot of interesting facts. The spot for observing the night sky was perfectly chosen and we could enjoy the wonderful conditions for observation. The guides very carefully explained everything we were observing through telescopes and our naked eyes and easily answered every question anybody had. The guides conducted the activity in a way that is interesting to both those interested in astronomy and those who have no previous interest in it. The groups were small so everybody could ask questions, observe the objects in the sky through telescopes without feeling overwhelmed or rushed and the atmosphere was really pleasant. The fact that the guides have a vast knowledge about astronomy and could easily answer any question was very impressive! We could watch the sky and listen to the facts and stories all night :) Highly recommend! 🪐🌌

Super impressive! - That was a great experience! After traveling to the meeting point i met there with Miguel and his Colleague. The tour with maybe 12 People started to the told time, we went a little out in the surrounding, where they put the telescope. Even if i was not that much into startgazing, and are more into photography and nature as such, Miguel was so impressive, he knew everything about stars, history of their names, and the solarsystem, he could answer every question i had. One noticed that he is doin his hobby as a job, because he was so well informed and also a fun person. I enjoyed that a lot! The conditions were very good, so i had much luck with that experience and would highly reccomend it if you are there on holiday! Sebastian

Star Gazing here is a must ! - Excellent organisation: the observation point was chosen very carefully, you could tell it was kind of a crater, where no light was disturbing the star gazing; very friendly MC, loads of information on astronomy! Great experiance !
