Head to the Karoo Desert for a one-of-a-kind stargazing experience. You'll be joined by an expert guide, and equipped with a specialised telescope through which you can view the universe!
Experience the beauty of the unspoiled desert night sky during this one hour stargazing adventure in Oudtshoorn. You'll venture into the Swartberg Mountains with a professional guide, who will help you identify stars, galaxies and planets.
Your experience takes place in the Karoo Desert: a vast, natural landscape under clear skies that makes the perfect spot for gazing at stars. You’ll be equipped with a specialised telescope, and accompanied by a skilled guide who will talk you through everything you see in the sky. As you take your perch in the perfect viewing spot, you can peek through the telescope and marvel at the sight that awaits you on the other side. Your guide will take you through the universe's place in human history, and how we've been using the night sky to navigate the world for thousands of years. Marvel as they point out the different constellations, planets and galaxies, the telescope bringing them into focus.
