Star gazing with the goggles. shea was very interesting I would recommend maybe letting people know they will take their own car to the viewing spot and also maybe more chairs (a long time to stand)

Great adventure

Vicki_N, Apr 2024

It was very informative about the reason things we see in the sky are not satellites because of their orbital height. We also learned about the surrounding areas and what to look for as well as interesting information about UFO activity in general. Great learning experience and well worth the time and cost.

Fun experience for all ages

Carley_E, Apr 2024

Shay was an awesome tour guide, lots of energy and enthusiasm and fun stories about her experiences. The UFO tour was a great group of people, having a good time but the view through the military googles was wild !

Fantastic experience

John_j, Mar 2024

Amazing to see with your own eyes how much alien traffic is above us and landing around us. Very unigue experience - very pleased that we have a much better understanding of our solar system.

Glad to meet guide whom i...

Jacquelynn_L, Mar 2024

Glad to meet guide whom i found I was related to. Evening was very enjoyable. Would recommend to all

Terrible

Robert_G, Mar 2024

Nothing, they left early, departure is 645, I arrived at 640, and they left workout me, and did not even offer a refund. So I did and they are refusing to provide it.

Life Changing

Patricia_T, Mar 2024

Great experience. The equipment allowed us to see UFOs. The narrative was informative as well. We had some cloud cover and received a voucher to come back. I would definitely go again.

Awesome star gazing and UFO sightings!

Trina_D, Dec 2023

This was spectacular! Shay was extremely informative and kind. The shop had some of the coolest item (go early to get some shopping in). I could literally sit and listen to her information for hours! The equipment was top notch. I'm looking forward to my next visit to Sedona and this tour will be fist on my list!

Wow!

Kathy_F, Nov 2023

Wow! What an eye opening experience! We absolutely loved the tour. Thank you so much for an amazing experience!

Worth it!

Rowena_G, Nov 2023

Worth it. My husband could be a tour guide now as he has found most of the UFO’s in the sky. It was a very good experience.

Believers and skeptics alike will enjoy this tour.

Katy_B, Nov 2023

This tour exceeded my expectations. Suitable for even the biggest of sceptics. Its worth it just looking at the wonderous nights sky with the high powered night vision goggles. The story sharing, guidance and information shared by our host Shay was just great. Theres such a passion for what they do that is evident. Often imitated, dont settle for second best. Pick the ORIGINALS. I would take this same tour again on another trip to Sedona!!!

This is a great tour, we...

maureen_c, Oct 2023

This is a great tour, we saw lots of stars and the andromeda galaxy. We had great views of UFOs in our atmosphere.

Definitely Go!

Angelique_B, Sep 2023

We had such a wonderful time - it's truly an experience that out of towners and locals alike should have! I've been recommending the trip non-stop since participating.

Scam

Judy_R, Sep 2023

It felt like a scam. Her speeches were lengthy and outlandish. I left wondering if anything she said was true. There were 16 people and 4 chairs. Sitting on the ground wasn’t allowed, so most people had to stand for 3 hours. There were 8 night vision goggles, so everyone had to share. Definitely a tortuous waste of time.

Rude lady, night vision is cool

Tom_F, Aug 2023

The night vision goggles are awesome to look at the night sky with. This is not a stargazing tour at all though. It's just a very rude woman who lies and tells everyone that the satellites you can see with night vision are alien crafts. And not even with a jokingly playful (just for the kids wink, wink) tone. We went on the night of the Perseids and she didn't even talk about it. We weren't even in a very dark area, the city was very visible.

Super Cool!

Margarita_R, Jul 2023

Thank you Shay for a great experience! We learned so much from you and this tour. We loved hearing all the stories you shared! Especially loved using high tech goggles to watch UFOs. Super cool! It was a super cool tour. We're definitely coming back! Thank you so much for a memorable experience!

Eye Opening Experience!

Vivian_K, Jul 2023

It was eye opening. The Tour Guide is excellent and very knowledgeable. Really had a great time ....though I think i was looking up for too long and had a bit of a neck strain (hahaha)

Chey was great friendly...

Gina_M, Jul 2023

Chey was great friendly and a great tour person Knowledgeable great location as well caring for safety of everyone

Great night under the stars!

Claudia_E, Jul 2023

It was very informative! The night googles and the stories shared were the best part! We saw a beautiful sunset right before the experience started and the guide kept us laughing the entire night! This is a must do!

Fun Experience

Heidi_R, Jun 2023

We had a great time! Fun to see through the high tech goggles. Wear closed toe shoes that are comfortable. We stood the whole time. Worth the experience.
