Chad is a great resource and story teller of the science and legends of the stars. He provides comfy chairs and blankets to view the sky. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Thanks Chad & Victoria!

My husband and I really enjoyed the Night Sky Tour with Chad. He squeezed us in last minute on our last night in Sedona, and we were so grateful.

The night was super cloudy at first, but Chad continued telling star stories from various traditions. There was never a dull moment, since he combined both knowledge and humor throughout his presentation.

Eventually, the clouds disappeared and we had the clearest visibility. With our naked eye, we were able to see many constellations, the milk of the Milky Way, and even a shooting star!

Do yourself a favor and book this tour- you will learn so much and have fun. ✨

For this 50 something gal and her 20 something daughter, Chad was the perfect guide for our exploration of Sedona! He was entertaining and informative, eager to share his passion for this very special place. We did both the private vortex tour and the night sky tour. With Chad we were able to go places we would not otherwise have known about and also that we would not have been able to access. He shared a special ceremony with us, enlightened us about local Indian traditions, and always made sure we were comfortable. He was easy to communicate with before, during, and after our tours. Highly recommended!!!

I would highly recommend an evening with Chad! He was super knowledgeable and a great storyteller. Even my non-astronomy friends enjoyed it! The sky in Sedona at night is amazing and he helps to make it all make sense. We even saw several shooting stars! My only suggestion is to dress warm and avoid drinking before the tour as there are no easy facilities. We had to high tail it out ?!!

A long overdue shout out to Chad for his Night Sky Star Story and Galaxy Tour! It was one of the highlights of my trip to Sedona for my 50th birthday back in January.

Not my first trip to Sedona, but I wanted a different experience this go round. I had read so much about it being an International Dark Sky Community and how amazing the night skies were out there, so I started my research. I had read about some more remote places you could go see the night sky on your own, but being a solo traveler, I preferred to be in a group for this and was also interested in actually learning about what I was seeing. I came across Chad's tour on a tour site and appreciated the detail with which he went into. On even further research, I discovered Chad’s own website, Adventure Explore and Soar Tours, which I found fun and interesting. I understand the importance of supporting local businesses, especially a sole proprietor, and decided to book the tour with Chad.

I appreciated that he checked in via text the day of the tour, looked out for me getting to the meeting site, and back to my car safely when leaving. (safely only meaning that I was the only person by themselves in the group and it was very dark out-hence the amazing night sky views). I have to mention it was a cold winter night in January, but Chad came prepared. We had chairs, hand warmers and more blankets then you could imagine.

I had read other reviews about Chad being a great storyteller, they weren’t wrong. This was a combination of astronomy, local folk lore, mythology, and interactive fun! I even got to see several shooting stars. The sky was breathtaking and magical. I would say this was more of an “experience” than a tour and worth every minute! Thank you Chad for being so passionate about what you do and sharing it with us!

This was one of the most extraordinary evenings I’ve ever spent. Chad’s presentation was virtually a tour de force of the entire universe. There was so much packed spiritually, scientifically, and philosophically into this extraordinary 2 to 3 hours, it feels like my perspective on life has been forever changed. I would love to take this night sky tour again and again! Thank you, Chad!

I went with my wife and two daughters on Chad's vortex tour on our trip out west. We had an awesome time. It was probably the best tour I've ever been on. Chad was extremely knowledgeable not just on information related to the Vortex tour, but he could tell you anything you wanted to know about Sedona. He put in a lot of energy and enthusiasm while making sure everyone's questions were answered and that everyone was involved. The mysteries of the vortexes are an experience in and of themselves with all the Native American lore surrounding them. I don't know if it was from Chad or the vortexes, but we all left feeling energized. Keep up the great work Chad!
