We were required to pay for our young children (ages 3 and 4), which cost us $150 for both—bringing the total to $300 family ticket . For what we received, it simply wasn’t worth the money. The session involved standing in extremely cold conditions late at night while a guide delivered lengthy explanations. With around 15 people in the group, each person got less than a minute to view the sky through the telescope, which felt rushed and underwhelming. Overall, it felt more like a lecture than an engaging stargazing experience. Honestly, I feel I would have learned more comfortably watching a documentary at home. I would not recommend this experience—definitely not worth the time or money.
