Gorgeous sunset view and a starry night sky

Posted on: 2024/02/11

This is absolutely the best tour we ever had! It was cloudy before we ascend the Mt. Haleakala, but the mountain peak was above the cloud and we could watch the beautiful sunset. We even saw the shade of the Earth on the right side of the horizon after the sunset. Gorgeous!
Then the guide set up two telescopes for stargazing. We were the only group at the overlook area a bit away from the peak, it was a beautiful starry night just like a natural planetarium.
He offered us a hot drink and doughnuts, that was nice. We had a great time looking constellations, Andromeda and other nebulae, Jupiter with its stripes and four satellites and so on, very educational. I recommend this tour for anyone.
