PRODUCT DETAILS
Every look through the scope is a look back in time. The Moon's light left a second ago. Starlight left years ago. Tonight, it arrives in your eye.
A local astro guide comes to your event, sets up before guests step outside, and stays on site the entire time. Guests look through the telescope at the planets, the Moon, and the stars, and capture them on their own phones through the scope lens. The evening also includes infrared and thermal wildlife viewing, a group photo under the stars, and your Astro sign and moon phase captured at the event and delivered as a digital file.
The experience is built for weddings, evenings at an Airbnb, hotel retreats, and company gatherings in the Estes Park area. Events run a minimum of 1.5 hours. If bad weather rolls in, one hour of time is added on at no charge.
Events start at $340. Distance to travel, longer time on site, and additional viewing devices can change the final price.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
What’s Included:
Your tour includes a certified and professional wilderness guide, walkie talkies, satellite communication devices in case of an emergency, snacks, water, rain ponchos, medical kit, reservation and timed-entry permit fees, backpacks, headlamps(if needed), binoculars for wildlife viewing, as well as group and candid photography. Of course, no adventure is complete without a few dad jokes to keep the mood light! We brew fresh coffee/tea at our halfway point on every trip, and hot chocolate if requested.
After booking, we’ll connect via phone or email to discuss your desires—whether it’s focusing on wildlife, capturing an awesome group photo, or summiting a mountain.
