Astronomy Tour

Overview

A tour for all ages just outside of Boulder (accessible by Taxi, Lyft & Uber). Tours start at sunset and last for 2 hours. The show will explore the night sky with several large telescopes and a laser pointer. We will see and learn about planets, constellations, navigation, satellites, nebula, clusters, galaxies, maybe some shooting stars, and our universe. Through telescopes we will get up close looks at these objects and take in their beauty with our own eyes. The tour takes place at a easy to find trailhead (no hiking required) where phenomenal sunsets and wildlife are often seen. Guests are provided with a red flashlight, comfy camp seating, bug spray, snacks, hot water, tea, instant coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies. Guests are encouraged to bring questions, wonderment, and warm clothing (it can get cool after sunset)

This was amazing we seen a twinkling star in the telescope that was simply magnificent! It pales in comparison to seeing Jupiter and Saturn though so clearly! Very knowledgeable guide that helped us understand and simplify everything! No regrets, definitely 10/10 would recommend and will do again when I’m in the area.

This stargazing tour was so much fun and educational. Luke is a wealth of celestial knowledge. We could have stayed far after the tour ended to talk and learn more. Definitely a must-do when in the Denver area.

Luke was an amazing night sky tour guide! He's extremely knowledgeable & passionate. I liked having 4 spread out 🔭 & 1 pair of binoculars for the 17 or so people there. He reframed a couple of hours through the sky. Really neat!
