Get
involved in a world class astrophotography experience! 

The
location of our astrophotography tour is truly stunning. Get ready for pure
darkness and incredible 360° views over 50,000-acres of farmland nestled in the
gold-rated Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve. This tour is
pure magic if you are wanting to learn or extend your astrophotography skills.

Learn
how to take jaw dropping pictures using our telescopes and digital cameras or
even better bring along your own camera and if we can use it, we will. 
Tours will be customized depending on the weather and what you want to learn. This
could include wide-angle imagery of the night sky, imagery of the Milky Way or
constellations, capturing star trails or night-time lapse animations and to top
it all off we will also help you process the images post-capture!

Our
fully guided 3-hour experience departs nightly with a maximum of 4
adults.  This tour is downright essential if you want to sharpen your
astrophotography skills and is suitable for beginners through to advanced.

tours are limited to adults (16+) only. If using your own camera, then you will
