Cairns Southern Hemisphere Stars Half-Day Natural Wonders Tour

We joined the stargazing tour and really enjoyed it. Stargazing depends a lot on luck and weather, so we were very grateful that the conditions were good on the night we went. The experience felt really special because it was so dark at the location that we could only see the silhouettes of the trees, with the distant brightness coming from Cairns city. Lying on a picnic mat under the open sky and looking up at what felt like countless stars was such a peaceful and unforgettable moment. Our guide was very passionate and knowledgeable, which made the tour even better. He shared useful tips on how to take photos of the stars, lent us his binoculars, and pointed out different stars and constellations, especially Scorpio. He also showed us the Milky Way, which was amazing to see. It was a very meaningful experience and something different from the usual sightseeing activities in Cairns. I recommend it if you enjoy nature, quiet moments, and learning more about the night sky.

Our tour was originally scheduled for the evening of the 16th. However, because the weather forecast showed frequent showers and poor conditions for stargazing, the tour company contacted us and kindly offered either a full refund or the option to reschedule. Fortunately, since we were not checking out until the 18th and really didn’t want to miss this experience, we decided to reschedule the tour. To get straight to the point, I highly recommend this tour! Our driver and guide was Japanese, spoke excellent English, and was very friendly and witty. He made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. He also helped us with the best camera settings for photographing the night sky and even took some amazing photos of us under the stars — definitely some of the best photos from our trip! We really appreciated the company giving us the flexibility to reschedule because of the weather. If you are visiting Cairns and have the chance to join this stargazing tour, don’t miss it!

導遊日文英文皆可溝通，去程跟回程約各一小時，拍照時間一小時。星空很漂亮。 The Star night is very beautiful, and guide can communicate with Japanese and English. Guide will pick up you at hotel then drive for about 1 hour to the spot,then photo time is about 1 hour.

知り合いにおすすめしてもらってこちらの星空ツアーを予約しました。ホテルの近くまで車で迎えに来てくれるので楽ちんでした。そして、とっても星空が綺麗で感動しました。ガイドのお兄さんが星空を綺麗に撮る方法も教えてくれて、iPhoneで撮ったとは思えないくらい綺麗で思い出に残る写真を撮ることができました。星座を眺める時間もとっても楽しかったです。楽しいツアーに参加できて良かったです。

호주의 깨끗한 별을 볼 수 있어서 진짜 좋았습니다. 중간에 일정 조절 위해 이메일로 연락드렸는데 바로 확인해주시고, 숙소까지 픽업과 샌딩 모두 해주셔서 정말 좋았습니다. 그리고 별을 보는 것 뿐만 아니라 예쁘게 밤하늘을 찍을 수 있도록 잘 알려주셔서 감사합니다. (왼쪽이 안 배우고 찍은 사진, 오른쪽이 배운 후에 찍은 사진입니다.) 핸드폰도 기종에 맞춰서 조절해주셔서 정말 예쁜 밤하늘 별 사진도 얻었습니다. 배운건 앞으로 다른 하늘 사진 찍을때도 써먹을 수 있을 것 같아요. (예쁜 사진 얻고 싶은 분들은 휴대폰을 고정할 수 있는 것도 가져가시면 좋을 것 같습니다. 개인 장비 가져가면 사진 찍는 법에 대해 더 많이 배울 수 있을 것 같았어요). 그 외에도 별자리에 대해 설명해주시고, 남 북 방향 잡는법도 알려주셔서 좋았습니다. 예쁜 기억 만들어주셔서 감사합니다. :)

The stargazing tour is really great and I enjoyed it a lot!!! Takuma is a very good tour guide and he told us a lot knowledge on the stars. We are able to see the milky way, southern star and shooting stars. He also taught us on tips for star photo taking.

真的是非常難忘的體驗，看見非常非常多的星星，真的令我興奮和開心。帶領員安全地駕駛，落車後，詳細講解星星的知識給我。並且教我怎樣用手提電話拍照星星，真的覺得帶領員細心和盡責。非常值得稱讚。❤️👏👏下次我再來澳洲，一定在報這個團，真的令我大開眼界。

当日は天気がわるそうだったので、急遽日程調整してもらい参加しました。快く調整していただきました。天候も良く沢山の流れ星や南十字星、天の川まで見れて大満足です。行き1時間、星空観測1時間、帰り1時間のツアーでしたが途中トイレが無いのだけ心配でしたが、問題なかったです。

出発する前に自然なのでイメージの写真が撮れないことやトイレがない、車の揺れがあることを事前に伝えてくださったのでよかったです！到着してめちゃめちゃ綺麗な星を見ることができて、オーストラリアに来て1番良かった思い出です！写真の撮り方も教えてくださり、思い出の素敵な写真が撮れました！本当にありがとうございます

本当に最高の星空ツアーでした！🌌✨ 星や星座についてたくさん説明してくださって、ただ見るだけじゃなく「知りながら楽しめた」のがすごく良かったです☺️ また、星空写真の撮り方もとても丁寧に教えてくださり、素敵な写真をたくさん撮ることができました！ ガイドさんも親切で、ケアンズ旅行の中でも特別な思い出になりました✨ ありがとうございました！
