  • Is it a Big Bus that picks us up?

    Our main pick-up area is between Los Cristianos and Callao Salvaje and usually this will mean you get picked up by our 55-seater bus. On here though you will be entertained by our guide who will give you fun facts and anecdotes about the island from start to stars! Anyone outside of our normal area in the south will be picked up by our shuttle Van 8-seater minibus and again will get a guide who will give some fun facts about the island on the way up.

  • Do we need our own car for a self-driving option?

    We 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?

    Obviously the moon is very bright when near full Moon and does detract from some of the fainter stars. You will still see all the constellations easily and everything we show through the telescope, as a bonus you will also see the Moon, my favourite celestial object to view through a telescope and you will be Wowed by the immense detail you can see!

The low humidity and stable climate create exceptional night skies, making Tenerife a standout destination for stargazing and astrophotography.
