Northern Utah Telescope Tours
(e.g. Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden, Eden etc.)
NOT at the Dark Ranger Observatory Near Bryce Canyon.

Utah Has Become The Dark Sky State!

Southern Utah boasts 4 (Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Natural Bridges, and Hovenweep) of the  darkest places accessible by regular car in North America!  In total, 22 National and Utah State Parks  have  International Dark Sky Association designation, as do the communities of Torrey and Helper, Utah.

We the Dark Rangers® are among Utah's original night sky champions  which is why we  sally forth from our Observatory to offer private tours around the state but especially in Northern Utah including popular destinations like Salt Lake City, Park City,  and Eden.
These are Northern Utah bookings

Northern Utah Telescope Tour Cancellation Policy

 Because financial institutions are allowed to do volume based pricing, they put small businesses at a disadvantage. This mean we only get 94% of the money you see on your bank statement. We also have to pay an additional 1.9% for our transaction fees.

92% refunds  are given if guest(s) cancel(s) more than 42 hrs in advance. 58% is refunded if cancellation occurs between 42 and 4 hrs prior to start time. While rescheduling is always an option with price-locked store credit, there can be no same night refunds except due to weather.

BUT WHAT IF IT'S CLOUDY?
Northern Utah weather is more regional and less dynamic, which makes it  predict well in advance, than at our  Dark Ranger Observatory in southern Utah near Bryce Canyon National Park. Sadly cloudy nights are also more common in Northern Utah.  

When we can be certain your Northern Utah Telescope Tours is going to experience overcast sky, we will do a hard cancellation with a 92% refund. 

When we are uncertain, we will still go for it!  Yet, if the sky is too cloudy for us to be able to show you at least 1 example of each class of astronomical object (solar system, binary star, star cluster, galaxy, and nebulae) we will offer our cloudy night refund of 75%.
