Astro Experience
This is our most popular experience. Come to our beautiful lakefront site and share the stargazing journey with a small group of 10 guests. During the 90-minute guided tour there will be time for: naked-eye stargazing and listening to stories from all around the world, watching through premium telescopes, asking questions about the stars and the Universe, warming up with a cup of hot chocolate, posing for your photo.
The evening you want is fully booked already, but you’re motivated for a late-night session? Top tip: tours starting at midnight or later can be found under the date of the next day. For example: midnight start is 12:00 AM of the next day, 1 o’clock after midnight is 1:00 AM of the next day. Please, double check you’re booking for the correct date! The date always changes at midnight!
Bringing children with you? Awesome, children (6 to 16 years old) can join at a discounted rate! Minimum age of participants is 6 years. Use Coupon Code 1KID, 2KIDS, 3KIDS or 4KIDS if you bring 1, 2, 3 or 4 children, respectively. For example, if you’re a family of 2 adults and 3 children (6 to 16 years old), select 5 as the total number of participants, and use Coupon Code “3KIDS” to apply the discount at checkout.
