Family star gazing - Fun night under the Milky Way for me and my city kids! Entertaining and educational. The hour trip through Zion at dusk was beautiful. They have a restaurant too to enjoy beforehand

Super informative and friendly evening with the night skies - Dylan was a wealth of information about the night skies. It was awesome to just lay back and contemplate the universe for a while. The supplied blankets were also very welcome. It was great to be able to look at the planets through the telescope at the end too.

Starry nights in Zion - We had a great time! It was a clear night and we were able to see shooting stars and satellites. Miles pointed out so many constellations along with their story. Truly a great time!

It's full of stars! - Had an awesome night seeing the stars and constellations. The view was stunning as there is very little light pollution and you can see so many stars. Myles talked about what planets we could see, difference between comets and meteors, and many mythology stories behind the visible constellations.

Amazing view of the night sky! So many stars and a wonderful tour guide! Highly recommend! - We loved our tour guide Kodi. She was kind, interactive, funny, and informative. The stars were absolutely incredible! We saw so many shooting stars, the Milky Way, and the constellations. They also provided us with hot chocolate and blankets. Such a wonderful tour! Would highly recommend!

Ok, but not worth the money. - The stars were beautiful, but the adventure could be done without the price tag. The hot chocolate was just packaged Swiss miss and it was very cold. Plus the guide spent a long time on satellites instead of constellations.

Lack of service - I called to check if it was on, as a snow warning was in effect. I was told that they would check and call me back. No one ever did. Later, at 5:30, I called back to no avail.
