Astro-tour, also known as astro-tourism, is a growing role within the travel industry that caters to individuals fascinated by the wonders of the universe. It involves visiting destinations renowned for their exceptional night skies, often away from urban light pollution, to observe celestial phenomena such as stars, planets, nebulae, and galaxies. Astro-tourism destinations often include dark sky reserves, astronomical observatories, and remote locations known for their pristine night skies.
Activities may include stargazing tours, astrophotography workshops, and educational programs led by experienced astronomers. Astro-tourism not only provides an opportunity for unforgettable celestial experiences but also promotes awareness of the importance of preserving dark skies and protecting natural environments.
Contact tour operators or organizations that offer astro-tourism experiences. The fee charged is uniform for all guides. You can also talk to your homestay in Hanle to arrange a tour for you. See Staying at HDSR for details about the homestays.
