Fantastic experience we would recommend to everyone!
We are a family of 5 who went on this star gazing trip with Adal. He considered our different levels of knowledge about the stars, so everyone could follow his explanations and we all learned many new and interesting facts.
We got to know many star constellations above our heads, which we will be able to identify from now on thinking back to this experience and Adal.
With the telescope we had the unique opportunity to see objects we never saw before.
Adal is a kind and likeable person that can tell you a lot of stories, not just about the stars, but also about the island in general. He will answer any question you might have 😉

Great Stargazing trip with the knowledge guide who was inspiring and full of information about space and exploring it in history and in modern day. We enjoyed a lot walking in dark landscape only moon lighting our footsteps. Adal felt more like a friend than a guide and he was ready to answer and discuss about everything what came up with our mind. The trip was much better and more informative than the sungazing in one obsertatory we visited next day.

Gran noche!!!
Realmente fue incluso mejor de lo que esperábamos. Adal consiguió hacernos entender de una forma muy fácil y amena cuestiones que son realmente complejas sobre nuestro Universo. Derrochó simpatÃa y nos transmitió su pasión por el Cosmos.
Con el telescopio conseguimos ver estrellas (casi siempre en parejas o más aunque parezcan a simple vista únicas).
También nebulosas como la del Cisne, preciosa o La del Anillo, increÃble… y los gigantes gaseosos como Júpiter o Saturno….
Realmente fue muy inspirador que compartiera sus conocimientos con nosotros.
Observar el cielo nocturno en Tenerife es algo realmente precioso y que bajo mi puto de vista no se deberÃa dejar de hacer…. no es posible ver a simple vista la VÃa Láctea en demasiados lugares y contar con Adal absolutamente recomendable si quiere disfrutar de una experiencia única y enriquecedora.

I highly recommend Adal’s astronomy tour. He’s very friendly, knowledgeable and has good equipment. If you’re even remotely interested in astronomy, don’t miss this.

I highly recommend this activity! Adal is an amazing guide who can convey his immense knowledge in an easy-to-understand way. If you’ve never used a telescope before, seeing things from documentaries and astronomical photos with your own eyes will be a life-changing experience. For the rest of my life, I will remember the moment when I saw Saturn with its rings – it’s really there!
