It was good if you are a beginner. The astronomer was very knowledgeable. He answered a lot of questions from the audience. However, there was only one telescope which we could use only three times during the session. The objects the astronomer chose to show were Jupiter, Mars and Orion Nebula. The planets are not that interesting to look at as they are just fuzzy balls. Saturday n is probably an exception to that due to its rings. Deep sky objects like nebulas, star clusters and galaxies are much more interesting. I wish they had another person who would control the telescope and pointed it more often to different objects. The telescope we had ended up not being used most of the time and we expected to listen to the astronomer. I knew most things his was talking about. I just wanted to use the telescope as much as possible as the sky was great that night

I saw a shooting star for the first time! The guides Tom and Britt were both lovely. Tom made the night very interesting with his commentary and his was fascinating. Britt was a perfect host. Highly recommended.

I expected to see many planets but we were shown only Jupiter. Even that was not zoomed in enough. It was a tiny one and appeared like moon. I want to see planets again in an observatory with a better telescope which can zoom in more. Would have given 4 star if he had shown Venus and Mars too which was present in the sky that night. He only pointed them out but did not show via telescope. I don’t know if Mercury and Saturn was present in the visible spectrum that night as he did not point them out or even mention about where they are currently. We had a very interactive group and I didn’t get a chance to ask him about these planets. I really appreciate how knowledgeable he was as he answered all the questions clearly. Mostly we saw different stars. It was interesting to know some facts about them though. I spotted one shooting star too. Overall good experience but wish we saw more planets. Blue mountains is so cold even in February. I suggest people to go in hot weather (Dec and Jan) if you can’t stand cold weather conditions. We did 8:30 pm tour and my hands literally froze by 10 pm. I appreciate the tour staff for providing hot chocolate and blankets for all.

We had Tom & Kieren conduct our stargazing activity. Such interesting information & a passionate presentation about planets and stars and even learning which are satellites in the night sky. Very happy we had picked the earlier timing so that we could arrive before it got dark, watch the sky change colours and then begin the activity. A telescope was set up for us to view Jupiter & its moons as well as the nebulas. Although the price was a bit steep for my family of 4, it was a unique experience as we come from overseas where we don't get really dark skies due to city lights. We would recommend this experience for families with children 8 or 9 years at least as a lot of information is given. Us adults enjoyed it very much including our teenager.

Absolutely must do experience!!! We watched the sunset over the mountains, received a yummy hot chocolate to warm us then the magic started. I’m a lover of our universe and the thought that we are but a speck of dust. Tom was our educator and he was fantastic!! Apologies to the other person working I’ve forgotten their name. Tom gave us tons of information peppered with humour, stories of legends and answered so many questions easily. I’m ready to do it again!!!! Highly recommended for all ages. Oh and I have a mobility challenge and use a walker- I was a little nervous about getting there. It’s an easy 500 metre walk with paved paths so suitable for all mobility aids and wheelchairs. If needed you can be dropped off right at the viewing platform and your car returned to the car park

The star gazing experience was amazing. Tom our star guide was excellent with an outstanding knowledge of our universe and beyond.

Tour guide was factual and entertaining. He was really good at answering all questions that came his way. I loved the little discussion on a few subjects about the night sky that late evening.

We had a great time, my teen son loved it too. We arrived a little early to see sunset also across the escarpment. The Astronomer told great and interesting stories and facts of course.

It was an informative, intimate and enjoyable experience. The team updated me during the day when weather didn't look great. Thankfully it cleared up and we got a great view of the sky. Served us amazing hot choc with a telescope and binoculars for us to use. Highly recommend!

Very enjoyable evening, the guide was great. It was very interesting getting to learn about the all things space! Would highly recommend

Can't wait to go again in the winter. Was a really nice experience with a knowledgeable guide to the stars who answered all our questions. We were lucky to have a really clear night.

Loved every minute we spent at the Wentworth Falls lookout, where the stargazing session took place: cloudless skies, mild temperature, and a terrific tour guide. Tom was friendly and remarkably knowledgeable about celestial bodies and star navigation. I've already booked my second' star tour' in a few weeks!

We booked a couple of times during Winter but kept choosing cloudy days so luckily we rebooked on one of the special Geminid nights and what a treat. We had Dimitri as our guide and learnt so many cool facts, not just in regards to classical astronomy but cultural as well which made things even more interesting for our daughter, (and I)! The telescope was super fancy allowing us to see the moon and planets like never before and there were plenty of chairs and blankies to go around along with hot chocolate. Thoroughly recommend if you're looking for something a bit different that is suitable for the whole family.

We went on the tour hoping to see the meteor shower, unfortunately we weren't lucky enough to see them however our guide Tom was amazing. His knowledge and passion for astronomy was clearly demonstrated while providing information and relaying the stories across the sky. Really enjoyed this experince and would attend again in the future to an early morning session with a better chance to witness the meteor shower.

Loved it!! Learnt so much compared to other stargazing trips I've been to, would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who likes looking at the night sky, and if you don't well go anyway because then you'll start to like it.
