Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need experience in geology or astronomy?
No. Our guides explain everything from the basics, and the trips work for all levels.
Can I keep the fossils or minerals I find?
Rules depend on the site and the type of specimen. Your guide will tell you what can be collected and what must stay in place. Ask us before the trip for details.
Can the trip be private?
Yes. We offer private and small-group options. Contact us with your dates and group size.
Is stargazing possible every night?
It depends on the weather and moon phase. We choose the best date and location with you to give you the clearest sky.
Who Are These Trips For?
Our day trips suit curious travelers, families, students, amateur geologists, fossil enthusiasts and photographers. No scientific background is needed. Your guide adjusts the explanations to your level, from first-time visitors to experienced collectors.
What to Bring
Comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, plenty of water and a camera. For stargazing, bring warm clothes, as desert nights get cold even after hot days.
