All of us at Evening Sky Tours have a passion for the night sky, exploration, discovery
and astronomy. We are all avid astronomers and our guides enjoy sharing our love for
the night sky from a prime observing place like Sedona. Our tour can be a very spiritual
experience for many people and helps people reconnect with their place in the Universe.
Evening Sky astronomers are the most qualified experts in Arizona and you are
assured an entertaining and educational evening of astronomy. Our guides have
decades of experience leading tours, and several have worked for NASA and JPL.
We limit the number of
guests at any given tour
to 10 guests to 1
astronomer so that you
will be assured a
personalized experience.
"My family and I visited your
area in August. Next to seeing
the grand canyon, our favorite
activity was the evening we
spent with you. It was a thrill to
be able to see so many stars,
since we live in Atlanta, Ga. we
don't see what you have there.
My children are 5,8 and 10 and
loved looking through the
giant telescope. The 10 year
old has taken a huge interest
in astronomy and has asked
for a telescope for Christmas.
Our guide that night was at
one time from Atlanta and he
helped me take photos of the
milky way ."
