Stargazing Experience
Cool experience! We were lucky to have clear skies while learning about the stars and using the telescopes. It did cloud over later while we were relaxing in the hot pools. Great tour guide too!

Fun guides and a good evening
...only deducting stars (excuse the pun) because the price is a bit OTT for what you get - I'd say its worth about $80ea MAX :-)

Bad weather only VR experience
Due to bad weather only VR experience. But hot pool is good.

Stargazing on Tekapo Spring
因天空不作美導致連一顆星星都看不到，但AR介紹及導覽員非常認真的介紹以及說明Tekapo跟Mackenzie的歷史跟有趣的事，值得一推
