It was 25 degrees (Fahrenheit) on the night we went to go stand in the field and look at the stars for almost two hours... and we didn't mind the cold one bit because we had such a great time. The tour guides provide chairs and blankets (although, if it's really cold like when we went, and you're not good... More

Matt was our guide, and he was knowledgeable and engaging. Literally gave a 180 degree tour of the sky. Very informative and enjoyable. Lucky for us the sky was clear. Plenty of stellar bodies to see and time was not a problem. Well organized and chairs and blankets were great. It was a warm day but at night Sedona is... More

Volunteers from the Sedona Chamber of Commerce's Visitor Center went on the tour on Wednesday night. They are all raving about it and how great Charlie was at pointing things out and very knowledgeable. Definitiely worth it. Thank you so much they really appreciated it. More

We loved this tour! Our accompanying astronomer was Charlie and he was very easy going, knowledgeable, and pleasantly accommodating of a pair of difficult members of the tour who thought Charlie could move the clouds and make the earth stop rotating  However, before you book this tour understand that this is an outdoor tour and it can be chilly...

I have to admit that I was originally a little put off by the price, but the experience was worth every penny. Our "guide" was Matt, and he was informative and funny. He had both the adults and the kids in the group laughing and interested, which is hard to do. I was a solo adult, and I had a... More

This was such a great experience! From the moment you arrive at the scene of the sky viewing until you leave - this group has everything set up for an optimal experience! You arrive at a good distance from town, yet only about 20 minutes away, and they have you stay in your car until its time to go to... More

if you want to experience Sedona's night sky with experienced star gazer's, this trip is definitely for you. I was a bit hesitant at first because I am used to observatories, and I didn't know what my mother and I were going to be in for, but I can definitely say that neither of us regretted going. This trip is... More

Astronomer very interesting and knowledgeable. Very friendly and accommodating. Paid particular attention to those at the telescope to make sure they see what he has pointed out. Answered questions from guests. It was a bit pricey but I would still recommend. More

I love the evening sky, but this was my wife's idea. We live in the country back east, thought I saw it all in the skies. Never could I imagine the sights, we had a great guide that was able to point out constellations as well as a galaxy seen with unaided eye with the help of a laser pointer.... More
