What an amazing experience! - What an amazing experience! The team of night skies managed to convey an incredible passion for stars and astronomy Starting with a dinner with a fantastic view, we then went on to watch the sunset in an oasis surrounded by nature and then conclude the adventure with an in-depth observation of stars and planets Every member of the Night Skies team was knowledgeable, kind and helpful, but a special mention goes to Ronald who managed to make us look at the stars with different eyes

Excellent trip - An excellent excursion from start to finish. Craig was informative and entertaining on the coach. The food was rustic but delicious. Sunset was beautiful and the free photos really added to the experience. Kieran and his team were very knowledgeable about the night sky and we really were informed well as to what we were looking at and the use of the telescopes was amazing. no point did we feel rushed. Very memorable evening. Thoroughly recommended.

You must do this - Craig, Kieran and the team were really entertaining and knowledgable about the skies and Tenerife. Even though there was a clima, the team knew how to get the best out of the sunset. Stars were amazing. Learnt so much. Costs provided for those who were cold. Restaurant staff were friendly and efficient. A well run and organised team. Thoroughly recommend.

Very good guide - Amazing trip. Keiran the guide really made our trip. Thank you for a great time! Food was average but we didn't go up for a romantic meal. IT was a full moon so there was light pollution but it was great to see the moon and its craters through the telescope.

Amazing experience! - Amazing evening! Craig was a wonderful host; passionate and knowledgeable about Tenerife. The restaurant was an experience, which maybe wouldn’t book again. But the sunset with a glass of cava went down a treat! After then driving higher, we arrived at the star gazing spot above the clouds. I have never seen anything like it! Utterly amazing. This being both mine and my partners first time star gazing, and unless we’re wanting to make the trek to Hawaii or Chile it couldn’t get any better. Kieran went through everything with such detail and passion, was a brilliant tour guide! Professional photos were taken throughout the entire night, which were sent free of charge the next day too.

Self-drive tour - Information was sent in advance via WhatsApp. We joined the tour group at 7 p.m. at the La Granja restaurant because we wanted to drive in a rental car. The group was traveling in a large coach. The food situation was more like a canteen situation and the guests sat together at long tables. At 7.10 p.m. the plates were already on the table, there was a chicken leg and a piece of pork with some salad and 2 small potatoes. For dessert there was a chocolate cream tart. The food tasted delicious, the drinks were included. You could tell that everything was very timed, as the restaurant organizes it that way every evening (private party). As self-drivers, the food would not have been necessary for us. About an hour later, everyone drove together to a parking lot in a park further up. There was champagne there and we could watch the sunset. The guides took photos of everyone throughout the evening, which were available free of charge a day later. There are certainly nicer spots for the sunset, but there is simply no room for the coach there. After dusk, we continued up to 2100 meters to a parking lot on the street. There, the guides had already prepared 4 telescopes. The participants were then divided into an English and a German group. The German guide Hans had a huge amount of knowledge and you could tell he was passionate about this area :) Everyone was allowed to look through the telescope about four times in total and admire different stars/planets. It ended around 11:30 p.m.
