The experience

Join us for a 2 hour night walk and a special stargazing experience on Waiheke Island — far enough away from the city lights to have a stunning night sky.

Delight in a dark sky experience on a Waiheke Stargazing Tour.

We pick you up from your dinner location, accommodation, or the ferry at sunset and transport you to our stunning private for your stargazing experience.

You enjoy a customised tour using telescopes, binoculars and the naked eye to view the night sky with our specialist guides. Learn all about the Southern skies and discover planets, constellations, distant stars and galaxies on a memorable tour, which can be extended by negotiation.

And why not make a night of it and let us book dinner on Waiheke for you to complete a wonderful evening?

Language:English with others available on request.

Recommended for: suitable for all fitness levels & ages.
