What to expect
Your guide meets you at the mountain location (details confirmed on the day) and sets up picnic blankets for the initial sunset viewing. Once the light fades, the telescopes come out. You'll take turns peering through high-powered optics—expect clear views of lunar detail, recognisable planets depending on season, and deep-sky objects. Between telescope sessions, tuck into BBQ food and a glass of wine. The pace is unhurried; this isn't a rushed tour but an evening activity with substance.
