This guided stargazing tour combines the grandeur of Mt. Cook with a fascinating journey through the night sky. Using powerful telescopes, you’ll observe planets, star clusters, nebulae, and distant galaxies, all while learning from expert guides who will share the myths and science behind these cosmic phenomena.
Your guides will take photos of you beneath the beauty of the Milky way galaxy- the perfect memento of your night under the stars.
The Mt. Cook area provides an extraordinary setting, with the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps framing the sky, making this a stargazing experience unlike any other. A must-do in the Aoraki Mackenzie Dark Sky Reserve, a UNESCO-recognized site.
