And our gift to you! Within 48 hours we will upload your photo onto our public Flickr website and then email you a link to download your digital copy of your photo so you can share with your family and friends, and of course on social media.

But wait, we’re not done. The perks of our tours keep on coming! We cap our tours at 10 people so our ratio of telescopes to guests is tiny; one of the lowest in the Tekapo region. Meaning, everyone will have plenty of time on the telescopes and plenty of opportunities to ask our guide questions.

Have kids? AWESOME. We are super passionate about sharing the night sky with the kiddos, we have a minimum age of three years old.

Our stargazing locations are super dark, with some of the lowest light pollution in Tekapo. We’re pretty pumped to run our tours from within the gold rated Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve, some of the darkest skies on the entire planet.

Our Stargazing Tour Includes:
Complimentary transport to / from the Silver River Stargazing office in Tekapo to the stargazing site located just minutes away from Lake Tekapo Township
Use of our toasty warm down jackets
A guided tour of the night sky
Use of our14”modern telescopes
Small group tours
Little to no light pollution
Vast 360° views of the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve
A photo taken under the stars for you to share with a digital link made available.
