Great tour
We had a great tour with George, it was all very organised and well prepared. We were able to see multiple objects in the sky using the telescopes and learned a bit more about the southern night sky! We enjoyed our hot chocolates and toasted marshmallows too :) Thanks for having us!

I wish I could put 6 stars!
An incredible experience with a fantastic guide! I highly recommend this place—it was one of the most fascinating things we did on the South Island. We even had marshmallows and hot chocolate! We attended the 9:00 pm session, and the sky was perfectly dark for stargazing.

Great Experience
Hosts went out of there way to create a very positive, welcoming and inclusive experience. We were made to feel the experience was provided for each of us individually, including follow up information to keep.

Amazing tour!
Fantastic experience. The tour is very well organized and the guide George is amazing. We learned a lot from him and enjoyed the whole experience!
From Chameleon Stargazing - Shared Tour - Tekapo
Thank you for your kind words and George is as always amazing (and passionate about the night sky)! We hope that all the knowledge that you'd learnt from him will be part of you from here onwards, whenever you gaze upon the night sky. We hope to see you again soon :)

超赞的观星之旅
来到Tekapo，一定要观星啊，Chameleon stargazing tour是个超棒的选择，小团还有10点和晚上12点的选择，George有丰富的天文知识，可以解答我们的全部问题，也会根据当天晚上星空拓展很多天文知识。还有热巧克力和烤棉花糖给大家取暖，更棒的是一张观星照片留念！记得冬天来可以更好的看到银河，当然也更冷哈。有苦才有甜呀～镇上也有别的观星团，但有些要提前太久报名，在我不确定行程的时候，这很难。
