Do we need our own car for a self-driving option?
Discover ToursWe advise you to have your own transport as we do go to three different locations in one evening for the meal, the sunset and stargazing. Taxi would be very expensive as it would need to wait for you at the stops. There are no buses where we go either!

Does the Moon affect our night sky and how many stars can we see?
