Itinerary
Discover the brilliance of the night sky from one of the most unique astronomy sites in New Zealand. The Star Trek Stargazing Experience at Stonehenge Aotearoa combines science, storytelling, and wonder beneath the Wairarapa stars. Join our expert guide for an interactive astronomy introduction followed by a live night sky presentation using powerful laser pointers to identify constellations, planets, and celestial landmarks visible from the Southern Hemisphere. You’ll learn how ancient cultures navigated and understood the stars, and how their knowledge connects with modern astronomy today. Weather permitting, the laser tour takes you on a guided journey through the constellations above – no telescope required, just your own eyes and curiosity.

About Wellington
Wellington is New Zealand's capital, a compact harbour city of steep hills, a waterfront museum, a cable car and a famously strong wind.
Wellington wraps around a deep harbour at the southern tip of the North Island, with hills rising steeply behind the waterfront and Cook Strait beyond the heads. It is the seat of government, and the Beehive, the executive wing of Parliament, stands among the other parliamentary buildings. Te Papa Tongarewa, the national museum, sits on the waterfront. The wind is a local legend.
Top-ranked sights in Wellington: Mt. Victoria Lookout, Wellington Cable Car, Te Papa (Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa).
