Grand Teton National Park Private Stargazing Tours
What your day looks like
Wyoming Stargazing offers year-round Private Stargazing Tours at your convenience. Let us come to your private residence or bring you to one of the premiere stargazing locations in Grand Teton National Park. We’ll set up one of our large telescopes (bigger than all the other guys!) and entertain you and your guests by showing you all that the fantastic night skies of Jackson Hole have to offer! Throughout the night we’ll show you planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and more. We’ll also have iPads ready with the Star Walk application so you can continue exploring the heavens while your friends and family are entranced through the telescopes. Compared to the often well-attended public stargazing programs and larger Group Stargazing Programs, Private Stargazing Tours give you the most individualized attention from our enthusiastic astronomers, allowing you to finally get answers to all of the questions you’ve ever had about the Universe. There will be little-to-no wait time to look through our telescopes, which means that during the evening we’ll be able to show you even more of the extraordinary objects in the sparkling night sky!
