Excellent! - My wife and I were really looking forward to this when we booked our stay in Tenerife and it definitely did not disappoint! The usual sunset spot was blocked by some construction, but we were quickly informed as to where to go and had no issues getting there. We watched an amazing sunset and then drove a bit further to the stargazing spot. All of staff were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with how to handle everything. We can't recommend this enough

Great experience despite wrong meeting point - Everyone on the staff has been professional, informative and helpful. The only issue was that we were given the wrong coordinates for the meeting point. We almost missed the entire experience, but we were able to find the group just in time.

Super nice tour - Very well guided stargazing tour. Hans explained everything very precisely and understandably. It was very well organized and despite the relatively large group there was enough time to look through the telescope. Highly recommended.

Second time around and still loved it - This is the second time we have done this tour. It was even better than the first time. We saw different astronomical bodies through the telescope. The team are so enthusiastic about what they do. Dinner was great too.

Amazing trip and experience - This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while and so glad I did. We decided to go for the private tour so 8 of us on a mini bus. Aged between 12 and 70. We were picked up and taken up for the sunset at mount samara. The sunset was unreal. A perfect place to watch from. We all had a glass of cava while watching the sun go down. And got plenty of pictures. Then we went a little higher for the stargazing. It’s a pretty unreal experience just sitting under the starts. Hans our driver and guide was very professional and knew his stuff. I was shocked at how few people were actually at this area. It’s the kind of place I’d like to sleep at. Although it did get a bit colder it is summer and I managed ok in shorts and t shirt. Looking forward to seeing the photos that Hans took of us all. If you have a group of 8 well worth going as a private tour and only works out a little more expensive than going on the coach.

Amazing experience ⭐ - Amazing, sunset & star gazing experience - the stars were seemingly neverending & visibility so clear. Kieran was extremely knowledgeable & all staff were very friendly. Definitely a one in a lifetime experience & highly recommended. My only complaint would be that we were charged an additional €40 to move to the following night as I caught a sickness bug - I'd maybe understand this if we had taken up a space on the bus, but we were self-drive in our own car. I felt under the circumstances this was an unnecessary additional cost, especially as we'd already paid for a family of 4.

Waste of time. Scam operator. Only cares about money and not guests - I was a last minute booking. I wanted to see the stars so I ended up renting a car and was given a link to a parking lot where I could watch the sunset. It was windy. They offered the people driving alcohol (I refused as Spanish drinking and driving laws are strict) and we saw the sunset. Drove further up the mountain to find out it’s too windy and they were cancelling. I don’t understand why I wouldnt be given a 100 percent refund as I drove, you gave me nothing except two spots on a mountain. Tried to appeal to sensibility of tour operator and offered to leave a glowing review of the 0 pictures they took of me but apparently a Timelapse video of the sunset justifies a 25% retention of cost. If you’re driving yourself just know that you might get scammed out of your money and get NOTHING. They don’t care as we are tourists that will never come back. Just extract money from us, cancel and scam others. If I got any value I’d say keep some of my money but this is a way they can boost numbers as the infrastructure is in place for their bus tour and they just want to get more people thru. They reuse the cups. Who knows how well they wash em (they collected em but someone had one that was obviously dirty and was dismissed when he brought it up). They ask you not to recycle em. Complete waste of money. Would not recommend.
