Reviews
Luca was very friendly and passionate about sharing his knowledge and experiences about our space. We were lucky to see the aurora on the day of our visit. He patiently answered all our questions esp our enthusiastic son had too many questions. Very informative session, highly recommend him.
The guide is very informative, shared a lot of his experiences on light pollution and also how to see the moon and Saturn
Very good and professional introduction. Intimate hot drinks and blanket service. Enjoyed it under such a great starry sky
Well-organised tour with an engaging and thoughtful guide. He really highlighted the beauty of the night skies!
luca is good in his explanation. can see that he is passionate about what he is doing.
very good experience here and worth to come
The worst experience we ever hade. We just got cheated and the ride there was horrifying at night. When we reached at 10pm which is scheduled to start, there no one was there. Everything was closed. Please don't waste your money by booking this.
I don’t understand how they arranged this without providing transportation. The price of this tour is not reasonable at all.
Guide was new. needs some experience and then do this trips.
