A timely excursion with a very friendly and pleasant guide. The explanations were clear, understandable, and very good. We really enjoyed both the observation itself and Lucas's explanations. The weather was quite cool, though.

Teide Stargazing Experience

Do you know where the Big Dipper is? Is it true that the Polar Star is the brightest star in the night sky? You'll solve these and many other doubts from the base station of the Teide cable car, where we'll enjoy a magical evening at an altitude of more than 2300 metres.

As soon as we meet we'll listen to a brief introduction about the secrets of the firmament. Afterwards, the time will come to use the professional telescopes to see the stars from a unique perspective. You'll be surprised!

We'll learn how to orientate ourselves on a dark night without the need for a compass, as well as see the constellations of the zodiac signs and much more. Moreover, if you come in summer you'll see perfectly one the Milky Way arms.

The activity will end ater 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Excursión puntual, con un guía Muy amable y agradable. Explicaciones claras, entendíbles y muy buenas. Nos gustó MUCHO, tanto la observación en sí, como las explicaciones de Lucas. Eso sí el tiempo bastante fresquito . Translate this opinion into English.

Mejor de lo esperado. El dia estaba con lluvia y nubes pero a la hora de la actividad estaba completamente despejado y precioso. Vimos con telescopios muchas estrellas y nos explicaron muchas constelaciones. Fenomenal el guia, muy claro en dus explicaciones y muy stento en las consultas que le hicimos. Genial.

Una experiencia maravillosa! Nos cambiaron el día ya que había condiciones meteorológicas adversas y sin duda mereció la pena cambiar de planes para ver ese espectáculo que en pocos lugares se puede ver. Nuestro guía, astrofísico, a medida que iba explicando podías ver su dedicación y atención. Translate this opinion into English.

A wonderful experience! They changed our day since there were adverse weather conditions and it was definitely worth changing our plans to see this spectacle that can be seen in few places. Our guide, an astrophysicist, as he explained you could see his dedication and attention. Opinion translated. Show original.
