AI summary of 14 reviews
Travellers consistently praise the knowledgeable guides who explain astronomical concepts accessibly and engage visitors of all ages, alongside the stunning views through telescopes of celestial objects such as planets, galaxies and the Milky Way. The tour stands out most often for its combination of clear night skies in the Blue Mountains location, quality telescope views, comfortable provisions such as hot chocolate and blankets, and the small group size which allows for personal interaction and attention. The most common caveat is the need to bring insect repellent, though some reviews note that guides may run slightly late, which travellers found acceptable given the opportunity to watch the sunset whilst waiting.
How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour. Some longer trips are made up of shorter tours we also sell, run back to back — where a review was written about one of those legs, the review says so.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
An inspiring tour at Wentworth Falls with an amazing guide and a lovely small group.
Felix was a fantastic, knowledgeable guide and we learned a lot. It was the highlight of our time in the Blue Mountains.
A great experience where I learned something new and saw the Blue Mountains from a different perspective.
My birthday surprise turned out to be stargazing at Wentworth Falls. The night cleared beautifully, and hosts Felix and Prash were friendly and knowledgeable, keeping our small group relaxed, fun and a little silly but still educational. Seeing planets and the moon through the telescope with my own eyes was something else.
A very enjoyable evening stargazing in the Blue Mountains. Our guides Emily and Tom, an astronomer, were full of knowledge.
A cold July school holiday night under a beautiful Blue Mountains sky. Our kids talked about it all the way home the next day, thanks to the team and our enthusiastic guide Prash.
