    My husband and 8 year old son enjoyed an amazing evening with Caroline and Dimitri. We could have easily spent many hours looking at the stars with Dimitri to guide us and answer all of our questions. Quite a mind blowing and beautiful experience. Great use of the laser pointer to allow us to see the various constellations and looking through the telescope was fabulous. We went on a full moon night so I would love to do this again on a dark night to see the stars in all their glory. Thanks for a great night!

    This uplifting cosmic adventure had a profound impact on our multi-generational family group. We were lucky enough to secure a last minute private stargazing experience on a mostly clear night when the spectacular Milky Way arced majestically across the sky. Host Caroline is charming and Astrophysicist Dimitri, armed with his telescope and laser pointer, is engaging and knowledgeable. He was able to respond to our varying interests and taught us to confidently identify the Southern Cross, see globular clusters with the telescope and note the distinctive black parts of our home galaxy. As well as opening our eyes to the wonders of the stars, he opened our minds to cultural astronomy - a timely reminder of our humanity. Not cheap, but priceless.

    Very informative information about the stars we see in the sky. It was a small group so we were able to look through the telescope a few times to see the moon and a star cluster. The different stars were pointed out while relaxing on the beach, recommend if the night sky interests you and you want to know more about the night sky.
