Zen Stargazing is a Japanese-language stargazing experience based in the Aoraki Mackenzie Dark Sky Reserve, offering intimate tours in Twizel (Lake Tekapo tours available upon request). Founded by an experienced astronomy guide with over six years in the field, the business was created from a desire to offer more personal, meaningful encounters with the night sky – especially for Japanese-speaking travellers seeking relaxation and a deeper connection with nature.

At the heart of Zen Stargazing is the concept of “星空浴” (Star Bathing), a tranquil experience where guests are invited to lie back, gaze up, and simply be present under one of the darkest skies in the world. Unlike large group tours, Zen Stargazing offers small-group and private experiences that allow participants to escape from everyday stress and rediscover a sense of calm, awe, and wonder beneath the stars.

In addition to guided telescope viewing and scientific insights, the tours emphasise mindfulness and the fleeting beauty of each moment. Whether it’s a quiet evening shared with loved ones or a special celebration under the stars, Zen Stargazing provides a peaceful, personal journey – one that helps each guest feel more connected to the universe, and perhaps even to their own ‘North Star.’
