"A well-organized tour with great sunset views and stargazing. Jan is very knowledgable and passionate about astronomy and did a great job of adjusting the viewing based on conditions. She made sure everyone was comfortable and warm with extra clothing, warm drinks, and regular bathroom breaks. If you have no experience stargazing you may enjoy the tour less. I found it hard to fully appreciate what I was looking at despite Jan's clear descriptions. But my partner who has a little experience enjoyed it much more. Our original tour was cancelled due to a cloudy forecast, but Jan helped us reschedule to another day. I'd recommend booking this earlier in your trip so you're able to make an alternate date if needed."
"The tour was meticulously planned and provided an enjoyable experience. Our tour guide was highly knowledgeable, and we appreciated the provision of warm clothing, sparing us the need to pack excessively. While the telescope was intriguing, it didn't exceed expectations. Although I believe it's somewhat overpriced, overall, I would still recommend it."
"Really had a great time. Expertise of our guide, who was knowledgeable and even gave us tea. She had us come a day early to avoid wing gusts atop Haleakalā. The telescope was amazing. Seeing the stars above the clouds, as well as the sunset will surely be in my life’s highlight reel. Post experience Jan sent us a highly informative Power Point recapping all of the magic that we witnessed, then led us safely back down."
"Very knowledgeable stargazing, even got pictures from the telescope at the end! Really enjoyed it. Jan is very prepared with warm gear and hot drinks."
"The best tour we’ve done thus far on our honeymoon! Jan surpassed all expectations (which were high given that one of my husband’s best friends set the bar high as he explained of his experience on Mauna Kea), and she went above and beyond every step of the way. She shared her knowledge and passion for astronomy, and she welcomed our constant questions with excitement. We’d go back again in an heartbeat!"
