Amazing & informative experience! Would highly recommend doing this tour, it is definitely worth the hour drive from where we were staying in Palm Springs. Devon was so informative, we learned so much! The setup was great and comfy. We had the opportunity to cancel because the forecast looked like it may be too cloudy but we decided to still go and it was perfect! We even saw a shooting star which was the icing on the cake!

Learning more about our galaxy and seeing different formations- our guides were very friendly and knowledgeable

It was more than what I expected. The explanation of the planets and the history was very informative. The various telescopes that were used was eye opening to say the least. I introduced us to a new way of seeing our galaxy and everything in outer space.

We were not sure what to expect and this went beyond expectations. It was a wonderful learning experience for any age and we lucked out with a fully clear sky last night. It was awesome to see all of the constellations with explanations and our astronomer, Devon, was just superb.

Devon is the astronomer extraordinaire. We learned so much about the solar system and constellations. The team really made the experience smooth. Amazing digital telescopes showing beautiful details of galaxies, comets, and stars! Best night sky ever!

We were not able to go due to weather but the team was very professional in issuing a refund. Hopefully we can catch it next time.

We celebrated my daughters 12th birthday by coming to this experience. Everyone loved it so much we spent the rest of the week talking about it. Highly recommend!

The entire experience exceeded our expectations. The setting was beautiful, Devin was an excellent teacher and tour guide to the stars. She was able to easily answer complex questions, interject humor and switch between talking to kids and adults. The experience was SO much more that looking through telescopes (although the amazing telescopes were SUPER cool!) I loved laying back with my blanket and binoculars following Devin's laser pointer to experience an understanding of constellations like never before. They are going to send us photos of the evening later today. Easily one of the best vacation tours I've even been on! A shout out to the telescope tech, too!

We are so glad you enjoyed your time with us under the stars! Thank you so much for your kind words and making the trek to join us!

Be prepared to be amazed! Devon and Cramer work well as a team to bring you an exceptional and amazing sky tour. You’ll see nebulae and galaxies not visible to the naked eye as well as great looks at planets that are currently viewable. Your entrance is a look at our solar system spaced correctly by distance from the sun. Then a look at constellations visible to the naked eye, super cool looks at Jupiter and Saturn, then on to look at distant galaxies, nebulae, and a look at a double star…the stars orbit each other!
Very well done presentation. You’ll be surprised at how much you are able to see when in the dark of the desert. Highly recommended.
