Overview
Exclusive 2-hour stargazing photo experience on the Big Island of Hawaii. Includes high-resolution photos.
Explore the mountains of Mauna Kea or Mauna Loa (which ever area has the best weather.) Have no fear, this tour doesn't go to touristy areas with lots of people around. This is one of the best stargazing photo spots in all of Hawaii with no other buses or vehicles around.
Once guests step foot onto the "Martian" soil, they'll be handed a parka jacket along with a hot chocolate, tea, or coffee. The guide will talk about how the very spot they are standing at is one of the most unique spots in the entire Solar System (and most people don’t even realize it.) After that, the guide will point out a variety of space objects and take photos of them. Participants will also get the chance to get some photos of the group under the stars.
