It’s from this location hugging the Earth’s equator that regardless of the time of year, the night sky is fully expanded, free from obstruction and closer to stargazers’ wide eyes than nearly any other location imaginable. While looking through a telescope mounted next to the tour vehicle, stargazers are treated to a clear view of neighboring planets, distant solar systems and the milky glow growing from the center of our own galaxy. In the distance, lions roar and the silent thunder of hippos’ steps can be heard on this planet while gazing up at another.

Maasai travel guides and visitors from India, the United States, Spain and Britain gaze up at the night sky, in awe of the amber glow of the Milky Way, revealed as nowhere else on Earth.

National Geographic recently chronicled the rise of stargazing’s growth among travelers to Kenya and the relative ease of finding a guide to take visitors on such a journey. From the wildlife filled valleys of the Maasai Mara to the towering slopes of Mount Kenya, the night sky has become a central focus point of travelers from the world over.
