Unfortunately this was just not close to being worth it for the high price.
This is a tough one to write since they were very nice - However, this was such an incredibly underwhelming experience for the 190/person price tag that I felt the need to warn others about it (as most people may just keep their thoughts to themselves if they have a negative experience).
To start off, it was close to being a full moon, and yet I saw they were still offering the experience this past Wednesday. I thus called them to check in about whether they thought it would affect the experience. The person I spoke to essentially said it would have a very small affect, and that the outer contours of the milky way would even still be visible. The gist of our conversation was that it would still be great viewing and a great experience and I shouldn't worry. Thus I booked it for my girlfriend and I.
To our surprise, however, the night sky viewing experience was completely corrupted by the moon. I live in Boston and have better night sky viewing in my backyard. I even think our guide was not prepared for the brightness, as the laser pointer she was using for half of the time was no match for the moon and was barely visible to most of the group. Thus for a good portion of the time many did not know what she was pointing at. Additionally the Milky Way was not all visible (contrary to what was said on the phone).
So with the night sky essentially a bust, I would have still hoped that the informational aspect would have been enlightening, but frankly that was underwhelming as well. Our guide fixated on the size of different things we were talking about. While of course some information about the relative size of things is important, it felt like half of the whole tour was the guide asking "if we say the sun is the size of a softball, what is the size of X?" It became tedious.
The main issue, however, was that the moon was way too bright to have a positive viewing experience. They should not run the tour around the full moon (or they should heavily discount the price) - I felt we were lied to on the phone.
If this was a $50/person experience, I'd still write it off as not worth it and a waste but I would not have felt the need to write this review. At $190/person, both my girlfriend and I were completely shocked. They need to be more honest about what the experience is.
