Most \u201castrotours\u201d will take you to places where light pollution is at a minimum. \u00a0Some are set on protected lands such as Chile\u2019s remote Atacama Desert, site of the clearest skies in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 60 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyandtelescope.com\/astronomy-blogs\/astronomy-holidays-stargazing-tour\/10-dark-sky-parks-in-the-u-s-you-need-to-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" label=\"\u201cDark Sky\u201d parks (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"broken_link\">\u201cDark Sky\u201d parks<\/a> around the world where you can spot planets and stars more easily. From Ireland to Japan and around the U.S., you\u2019re guaranteed some dramatic celestial experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iceland, Norway, and Finland are the destination for many\nastrotours. Some even include a sleepover in a glass igloo to stargaze all\nnight long!&nbsp; Closer to home, Fairbanks,\nAK offers grand views of the Aurora Borealis. Ketchum, ID is another city with\nrestrictions on their exterior lights and streetlights (they point downwards).\nThis makes spotting constellations a snap. And the rocky coastline of Acadia,\nME features some of the darkest skies on the east coast \u2013 and some of the best spots\nto wish upon a star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Astrotours often include private access to world-class observatories (and their super-powerful telescopes), guided \u201ccosmic tours\u201d by experts and stays at nearby luxe resorts. In Allauch, France, check into the hotel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.attrap-reves.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Attrap\u2019R\u00eaves (opens in a new tab)\">Attrap\u2019R\u00eaves<\/a>, with their special clear \u201cbubble rooms.\u201d These unusual lodgings give you a perfect 360-degree view of the heavens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stargazing and the sea has always been associated.

The \u201cViking Orion\u201d (as in the constellation) features a high-tech\nplanetarium and resident astronomer who provides night-sky tours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last thing you&#8217;ll want to worry about when gazing at the heavens is losing an expensive ring in the dark.
