looking at the stars - great experience. The guide was forthwithe with information about the stars. The telescopes were top notch and easy to understand. This was one of the highlights of our trip out west. Take the time to do this, it well worth it.

Awesome Stargazing - Stunning view of the stars! Learned a lot about astronomy and even got to see a StarLink Satellite launch. Tour guides were very knowledgable and I appreciated the warm blanket provided. I saw my first shooting star. Would recommend to any one visiting Sedona!

Family Adventure Under the Stars - Our family had an unforgettable experience with the Sedona Stargazing Tour! The serene, dark-sky location was perfect for stargazing. Our knowledgeable guide made the night special with fascinating insights about constellations, planets, and galaxies. Seeing Saturn’s rings and Jupiter’s moons through high-quality telescopes was breathtaking! The tour’s personal touches, like cozy blankets and hot beverages, added to the comfort and enjoyment. This tour is a must-do in Sedona, offering a unique and awe-inspiring connection to the cosmos. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed it! - It was a well organized/prepared tour and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The host was very knowledgeable and the information he provided us about all the stars was in depth. We saw a space station! The telescope was meh, to be honest. Don't expect to be able to see anything like the photos of the planets posted on this tour description; you only get to see some bright dots, just barely magnified version of what you see with your eyes.

Absolute must for Star Gazers!!!! - We booked this the day before our visit to Sedona. Communication with company was great. Easy to find the location. Wes and Keenan were our Star Guides for the night. So informative and extremely knowledgeable. They guided our eyes right to the stars and the galaxies visible. We were lucky enough to see the Space Station go buy! My husband was lucky enough to notice a booster rocket in the sky. These guides really know their stuff. This experience is an absolute a must!!!

Weather for stargazing was too cloudy--but company handled well. They made sure our fee was refunded. Thanks! - The star gazing tour would have been great, except for the clouds--which were not the fault of the company. The first day, we were unable to find the site. The person in charge contacted us and allowed us to go the next night. Right after we started, it suddenly got cloudy and they had to call it off. They made sure we were able to get a refund due to weather from the place we booked it, trip advisor. They did everything they could do for us. Nicely handled by Sedona Stargazing.

Pricey without much to see - This was quite expensive (I knew that before paying), but I expected to see the planets much larger & clearer through the telescopes, maybe that was a wrong assumption since this is my first time using high-powered telescopes. I would say save your money & find a dark road to look at the stars (unless they come down on these prices).
