Discover the wonders of the cosmos on this enlightening dark sky tour! Discover the beauty of Australia's longest river on board a boat cruise amongst abundant wildlife. Enjoy a hearty traditional hotel meal and then, travel to a stargazer's delight and get lost in the starry night sky.
The magical starlit canopy above us tells a wonderful story. This stargazing experience will leave you starry-eyed as you learn more about the night sky from expert astronomers at the iconic River Murray International Dark Sky Reserve. Departing from the picturesque town of Mannum, enjoy a scenic drive that hugs the Murray River before boarding a slow journey boat cruise amongst abundant birdlife and nature. Take delight in spectacular views of the River as you arrive to your dining destination for the evening.
And then for the main event, you'll head to the heart of the internationally recognised Dark Sky location for an awe-inspiring stargazing experience. Renowned as one of the darkest places on earth, viewers can see up to an estimated 5000 stars at this site. Feel utter bliss as you get lost in the twinkling canopy above. You'll get to peak through an amazing telescope to view stars, constellations, planets, clusters and galaxies. Feel free to bring your own digital camera and tripod to receive tips on how to connect to the starry night sky.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
