Would you like to escape the daily grind and reconnect with nature and the all-encompassing Universe? 🌌
Our interactive garden planetarium program, ‘Our Solar System ☄️ and the Universe’ 🪐, will guide you through the endless celestial sea, sharing fascinating insights into the wonders of the night sky.
The program takes place across the half-hectare grounds of Astro Garden Balaton. Inside our garden planetarium, you can watch a captivating film produced by the ESA (European Space Agency).
With the help of our telescopes 🔭, you can view the setting Sun and—weather permitting—the Moon and the most beautiful sights of the current night sky. If it’s cloudy, we will treat you to an engaging presentation on space food and how astronauts eat in space!

Amazing experience with my family, thank you to Szabolcs ! / Hatalmas élmény volt a családomnak, köszönjük Szabolcs!
A wonderful evening with lots of information. Not only about the actual topic, but far beyond that. Hospitality is taken very seriously here, in the truest sense of the word. Thank you again for the wonderful time in your private space and for your warmth! / Csodálatos este volt, rengeteg információval. Nemcsak a tényleges témáról, hanem azon túl is. A vendéglátást itt nagyon komolyan veszik, a szó legnemesebb értelmében. Még egyszer köszönöm a csodálatos időt a privát teretekben és a vendégszeretetet!
Great experience – really worth it! We learned a lot during this tour. Everything was explained with so much passion and knowledge that it was easy to get excited. Even without speaking Hungarian, it was very interesting and fun! The couple who runs the planetarium was super friendly and kind. You can feel that they really love what they do. It was one of the best parts of our trip – we really recommend it! / Nagyszerű élmény – tényleg megéri! Sokat tanultunk a túra során. Mindent olyan szenvedélyesen és szakértelemmel magyaráztak, hogy könnyű volt belelkesedni. Még magyarul nem tudva is nagyon érdekes és szórakoztató volt! A planetáriumot üzemeltető házaspár rendkívül barátságos és kedves volt. Érezni lehetett, hogy igazán szeretik a munkájukat. Ez volt az utazásunk egyik legjobb része – mindenkinek ajánljuk!
Super interesting! Very friendly people. The host talks passionately about his own planetarium and tells you everything you can see through the telescope.... / Szuper érdekes! Nagyon barátságos emberek. A házigazda szenvedélyesen beszél a saját planetáriumáról, és mindent elmesél, amit a távcsövön keresztül láthatunk.... forrás: getyourguide.com
