Hi Yanjun Liu, thank you for taking the time to give Silver River Stargazing a review. We are very pleased you enjoyed your tour & we hope to see you again in the future! Kind Regards Lake Tekapo Farm Tours
Big thanks to the team for letting us come earlier than our scheduled session to improve our chances of seeing the stars! We drove up to the viewing site first, but it was too cloudy, so they had to cancel the tour. Luckily, they gave us a full refund with no fuss. We still decided to stay for a bit and managed to catch a few stars later on. Shoutout to Kieran for sharing so much interesting info—it made the experience even better! Great service and super accommodating team—would definitely recommend!
Hi Joli, Thanks so much for the kind words! it was a real pleasure to have you guys on the tour despite the weather and I'm so glad that you managed to see some stars in the end!
Thank you for your 5-star review! We are glad you had a great experience with us and hope to see you next time! The Silver River Stargazing Team
The experience was amazing! Our guide Roslyn was so informative and delivered it in such an engaging way. We were so lucky to have such a clear night and even got to see the southern lights by total chance. The sky was incredible and we learnt lots about the stars and the telescope set us gave us some amazing views which were explained to us.
Hi Kiera! Thank you so much for your lovely review!! So happy you enjoyed the tour, the sky that night was spectacular!! Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip :) - Ros
Super interesting and fun explanation by Adrien, who clearly was an expert!
