The Observatory is located on a hill, can be quite tiring to walk if you don't drive. They run daily night and day tours with the chance to use the telescopes to look at the heavens. The guides are astronomers who explain not just the constellations but also how they work and their fields of study. On our visit, we were lucky enough to be able to use two telescopes, one of them being among the oldest telescopes in Australia! Seriously, don't miss this if you are in the vicinity.

An amazing evening visiting and looking through 2 telescopes and then the planetarium. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we had lots of questions answered well. Fascinating exhibits and the place is walk around. Great value for money.

Enjoyed the family tour, Jason was a passionate and overall a stellar guide. Even though it was a rainy day we didn't go off our rocket that we couldn't launch the rocket. The tour was out of this world and had a great vibe... Some would say it had a great atmosphere!

A charming building well signposted in a charming part of Sydney. Exhibits were interesting and interactive and the building and grounds were well maintained. The young lady in the front desk was very helpful and friendly. We will return when we have more time.

Was so awesome to see the clusters of stars and the moon close up. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and I loved his sense of humour. Had such a great time learning about the universe. Also when I asked they let me try capture a photo of the moon using my phone through the telescope - that was really cool because it turned out great!
