Experience an unforgettable evening that begins with a sunset from a panoramic mountain viewpoint in La Palma, the world's first Starlight Reserve. As the sky changes colour, relax with a complimentary glass of local wine while taking in the scenery. Once darkness falls, your certified Starlight guide will introduce you to the wonders of the night sky, using a laser pointer to identify the brightest stars, constellations, and planets while sharing astronomical facts and local legends. Then, through powerful telescopes, you'll observe the Moon (when visible), planets, nebulae, star clusters, and distant galaxies beneath some of the clearest, darkest skies on Earth. Thanks to La Palma's protected skies, high altitude, and exceptional atmospheric conditions, this is a truly magical journey from sunset to the stars.

Once there the experience was amazing and inspiring. Views of the Milky Way were literally out of this world. The travel time, motion of the road drive and change of buses could have been communicated better but so worth it.

The experience of looking at the night sky and seeing the milky way with the naked eye was unbelievable! It was so beautiful and we got to see and learn a lot with the telescope. We had children aged 7&10 and they loved it! It would have been useful to know that it takes an hour and a half to get up from the base as we had no idea on timings and that you are there until 11-1130pm. We didn't realise it was so late back. We for the hotel at 2am!! Highly recommend trip!!

Having been to the info centre previously and watch the video we expected to see more and it to have a bit more of the wow factor. Still a great trip

Really great trip. Very informative guides. Was given all the right information re how cold it was etc. So was well prepared in advance

Loved seeing the night sky - amazing! Loved seeing planets and stars through the telescope, especially Saturn and Jupiter. Excellent astronomer-guide. Rather a lot of standing around - more talk and/or refreshments would be good. Suggest also more photo opportunities on the way - limited chance to photograph observatories and dishes MATS to lie on would be great! Then we could really see the night sky in comfort

This was an amazing experience, the stars from the mountain top are unreal. Using the telescope was easy and it was extraordinary to see the moons of Jupiter, a dream come true, an experience I will never forget. It is cold up there! Blankets were provided but I was glad to have jumpers too
