Reviews: New Zealand Lake Tekapo 90-minute Chameleon Stargazing Tour for 14 People with Professional Telescope
Guest User2025-11-13
It was a fantastic experience. The teacher's explanations were very engaging, and I learned a lot. I learned how to identify the Southern Cross, Alpha Beta Centauri, and that the brightest star is Sirius. Gazing at the starry sky and listening to the explanations, and afterwards enjoying hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows, plus a group photo under the stars, it was all unforgettable.★

Reviews: Lake Tekapo: 50-Minute Mount Cook and Beyond Scenic Flight
Guest User2025-12-20
What an amazing trip. We really appreciated how much effort the team went to, to take advantage of the weather and get a flight out ! Thank you ! The flight itself was incredible. Justin was a brilliant pilot - he ensured we all had an incredible experience - and the scenery was spectacular. Truly never going to forget this.★
