I don't know what I can say that everyone else hasn't already said. This is just a really informative and awesome experience to have. The group was small, our astronomer was both smart and funny, and I believe a good time was had by all. This is definitely something worth doing in Sedona!!!

Sedona has a night sky ordinance that only allows lights to shine down only. Due to this ordinance, you cannot believe how many stars are in the sky. It's not uncommon to see shooting stars on a regular basis.

This was amazing to see. We were fortunate enough to have a moonless sky so we were able to see much more. Our featured planet was Saturn and you could even see the rings around it. Our enthusiastic astronomer Rick was very informative and even humorous at times. He made sure to point out all of the constellations as well... More

We decided to do this based on other reviews we had read while planning the trip. This was a very memorable evening and it was wonderful to look up and see so many stars. We don't get to see a sky like that living in the city. The guides were friendly and helpful. You could see satellites passing, and we... More

When they said we would see Saturn, I thought I would see some fuzzy light and use my imagination to see the rings...wrong....it was there in the scope,,,the way the real photos show Saturn to be..yes I saw Saturn, and nubile, double stars, shooting stars, all the constellations in the June night sky, the Milky Way, the Space Station meandering...

What a fun and different evening! My hiking group decided to do an evening of star gazing while staying in Sedona and really had a good time. Our leader, Matt, was very informative and entertaining. Could not believe the rings of Saturn -- wow! They provide blankets to keep the chill off, very helpful the night we were there.

The Sedona Star Gazing was really a very special experience. You are like in the middle of nowhere, watching the stars and the milky way. It made us feel so tiny and remembering that we are just a very little part of this universe. Our guide (and his son) made this tour really special and interesting. He shared his deep... More
