A Galaxy, A Globular Cluster and A Tarantula

And That’s Just The Start

Few can guess the range of stunning objects they will encounter on an evening with Honeysuckles Astronomy Tours. Nights will vary according to conditions and number of guests in the group. But with each tour we aim to give a comprehensive range of sights as the time of year permits. Also, when there is time, certain objects will be viewed through several different eyepieces to give a varied view. It all adds to quality of the stargazing tour experience.

Bhavana and Sam were quite amazed with each successive star cluster, nebula and galaxy they viewed and were equally enthralled by the story accompanying each. Such was their fascination, we may expect to see them again at a later time in the year to see a range of different wonders.  The beach – by night hearing only the sounds of the ocean … and our home made omelet for breakfast capped off a great short getaway from Melbourne. For many Melburnians, a night with us is just the tonic they need 🙂

“Honeysuckles Astro Tour was an unforgettable experience! Bruce’s deep knowledge and his passion for astronomy made the night truly special. We had the chance to observe breathtaking celestial objects, including star clusters, nebulae, and distant galaxies. Our personal favourite being watching Tarantula nebula, DY Crux star and Sambrero galaxy. Bruce’s explanations were clear and engaging.

Beyond the stargazing, Bruce was a warm and welcoming host. His enthusiasm was contagious, and he ensured everyone felt comfortable and involved. He also kept us well-informed about weather updates, ensuring we had the best possible experience. The experience was topped off with a delightful breakfast made by Bruce which added a personal touch to the trip.

Anyone with interest in astronomy, this tour is a must-do. It’s a unique and unforgettable experience.”
