Amazing experience - This was one of the best family experiences we have had. We loved all the stories and of course the view of the stars was fabulous. We highly recommend Tony - an unforgettable night. And we're so excited to dive into his book recommendations!

A fun learning adventure in the desert sky with incredible photos. - This was an incredible experience. I saw so many shooting stars and learned more about the night sky than I thought possible. Tony has so much knowledge about stories of the stars from cultures all over the world. I was entertained and also feel like I can read the sky at least a little now. Tony and his cousin looked after our group and made us feel comfortable in the night desert. The photo takeaways are incredible. The emails and directions were clear and helpful. The next time I'm in Joshua Tree I will do this again, because I know Tony has so much more to share. Thank you!!

Stargazing Tour Full of Wisdom and knowledge - I booked this tour for my boyfriend’s birthday, and he absolutely LOVED it. Tony and Kevin are deeply passionate about the stars, and this is contagious. The stories they told are very inspiring. They go beyond astronomy and offer a lot of wisdom and spiritual insight. The tour lasted much longer than expected because Tony had so much to share; he doesn’t count the hours, and we could have stayed all night. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to understand where we come from, where we are going, and our connection to the Earth and the universe. Thank you both for your generosity!

One of a kind experience like no other - Wow! What an incredible experience we had on this stargazing adventure. I actually went to one with a different company a week before and nothing compares to the experience that Tony and Cuz provided for our group. Being amongst the Joshua Tree Desert energy (not the parking lot like the other one) was a harmonizing experience, being able to see the stars with the night vision goggles was a one of a kind experience seeing beyond the naked eye while Tony told his stories of our ancestors and how to be able to read the sky like our lineage did in the past was incredible. Nevermind the amazing photos and pictures of the galaxies, nebulas and our group under the Milky Way. If you want to have an experience that you won't be disappointed in absolutely come to Tony!

Amazing night - It was an amazing night. The night vision googles are really cool. The handwarmers were also very much appreciated. I loved the stories and the fact that we got to have some pictures to remember our tour.

So cool! You should do this! - I booked this trip for my husband's birthday. At first it seemed pricey, but after the experience, I think it was totally worth it! The owners are kind and easy to work with; they communicate well, and everything went smoothly. Tony is an amazing storyteller, and we learned so much. The night vision binoculars were spectacular, and the telescopes were some of the best I had used. I've been to a few night sky experiences, and this is by far my favorite. I highly recommend you book directly through the company. I booked months in advance and used a safe number on my credit card through Google. Since Trip Advisor didn't run my card until right before the trip, the number didn't work any more, and without warning, TA canceled my trip TWO DAYS BEFORE I planned to go. We were coming from out of town and had rented a place to stay already. When I tried to rebook the stargazing tour through TA, there was no more availability, and TA makes it hard for you to contact them over the phone. My whole trip was almost ruined! Thank goodness Molli and Tony let me rebook through them at the last minute. They are amazing! Trip Advisor, not so much.

The best stargazing tour ever - This is the star tour you should take in JTNP!! Tony’s enthusiasm is contagious and makes the night fly by. They make it so comfortable with the best chairs ever and by giving you blankets and hand warmers! The pictures you get are just the final touch that makes this the best! Thanks Tony & Mollie!!

Out of this world experience - This is a great experience. None of us had ever seen the night sky like this! The night vision goggles allowed us to see stars, planets, and even galaxies! We also saw the moon rise over the mountains at Joshua Tree, and we caught a glimpse of a meteor burning through the sky. It was a fantastic experience for all of us.
