3.Premium Stargazing Tour for 10

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 51 reviews · 1.5 hours · from $88

Meet your English or Spanish-speaking guide at Roque de Los Muchachos, 1,300 meters above sea level, and spend 90 minutes viewing planets, nebulae, star groups, and the Moon through high-grade telescopes. Guides such as Angelo and Antonio explain complex astronomy in plain language. Bring a car, warm layers, food, and drinks.

“Angelo is really knowledgeable and a good guide. We enjoyed learning about and watching the cosmos. The price was a bit steep for us and the temperatures under 5°C were a challenge. We'd like to do it again in a better time of the year (warmer, better night sky) and a smaller group. For the experience we had in January, we thought the price was too high and could've included an entry ticket to the visitors centre.”
