What To Expect

Looking for something different? Get an exclusive Star Safari—just for you and your special ones! We invested in the best equipment so you can enjoy an exceptional experience. For stargazing, we have powerful telescopes and top-quality attachments. For your entertainment, we have VR headsets and the best planetarium software. And a bonus—we are in the middle of an internationally recognised Dark Sky Reserve on a hill with outstanding night sky views. It's as dark as it gets, only 10 minutes from Martinborough.

Bring your observing list, or let us make one for you.

By the end of the session, you will know what's in the sky and how to orient yourself to the stars. Star Safari is a 90-minute experience with the Universe while seeing the best the amazing southern sky offers. If the weather is unsuitable for stargazing, we explore our sky in virtual reality. You get to ask questions. We deliver a learning experience just for you.

We are Hari and Sam, and we look forward to hosting you.
