点评:As a local, I’ve often taken the incredible dark sky sanctuary above Aotea for granted. But when family visited from overseas, I decided to book a Dark Skies tour with Good Heavens—and I’m so glad I did!
We timed our booking with a Blood Moon, though the moon itself stayed hidden behind low sea cloud. Thankfully, the stars more than made up for it, putting on rather a good show. Our guide, Deb, was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and able to answer all my amateur astronomy questions in a way that was easy to understand. Sitting under the stars with hot chocolate and homemade brownies was a lovely, cozy touch as the evening cooled.
I came away with a newfound appreciation for the night sky and a better idea of what to look for next time I gaze up. Whether you're a visitor or a local, I highly recommend this experience! 🌟✨

我们把预订的时间定在了血月期间,尽管月亮本身隐藏在低海云后面。谢天谢地,星星弥补了这一点,上演了一场相当精彩的表演。我们的导游 Deb 非常棒——友好、知识渊博,能够以一种易于理解的方式回答我所有关于业余天文学的问题。夜晚凉爽时,坐在星空下,喝着热巧克力和自制布朗尼蛋糕,是一种可爱而舒适的感觉。
我对夜空有了新的认识,也对下次仰望星空有了更好的想法。无论您是游客还是当地人,我都强烈推荐这种体验!🌟✨
