Lanie and Adrian were fantastic. So knowledgeable and entertaining. We were lucky to have a very clear, dark night and got to see some pretty amazing and beautiful things. I would highly recommend booking a tour if you're in town.

Laine and Adrian were amazing, unfortunately it was a relatively cloudy night so we weren’t able to see much. They gave us the option on if we wanted to go ahead or if we wanted to reschedule, due to my parents availability we decided to just go through with our booking knowing the likelihood of us seeing anything was relatively low. Adrian sat us down and showed us as much as he could, we came away from the experience with knew knowledge and keen for another try.

This was an incredibly amazing experience! Lainie and Adrian were very patient with us and explained everything thoroughly, their knowledge and passion is just mind-blowing. Highly recommend for every age, very personal and educational experience. On a clear night could clearly see the Milky Way spanning across the night sky with limited light pollution there, absolutely wonderful. Southern Cross is very clear and can see many constellations.
