I was impressed by Vijay K’s beautiful astrophotography work from Ladakh in an art exhibition and ever since … I wished to go stargazing in Ladakh. Finally, I was fortunate to join Ladakh Astro Photo Tour with BAC this year. Trip was very well organised. It was a good mix of day tours and night stargazing with astrophotography sessions. It’s even good one for amateur astrophotographers. Hotel locations were away from crowd with very good views of snow capped mountains, lakes, rivers and roof top booked for astrophotography. While, Ladakh trip was transformational for me and broaden my mind to accept that there is beauty in very simple but tough life. I was astonished by beauty of landscapes, rivers, lakes, stars, shooting stars and so on…. I learned a lot about myself as well as basics of astrophotography. Our group was blessed from mother nature as we saw snowfall, double rainbow and Milky Way galaxy. Thank you Vijay for making this happen for me! Wishing you the best for BAC success and will wait for more such amazing stargazing trips.. and astrophotography lessons.Posted on Murugan KrishnanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Attended the Ladakh astro pgotography workshop from June 21-29. The whole trip exceeded my expectations on two counts. 1. Significantly improved my astro photography skills. 2. The touring destinations covered the most important parts of Ladakh such as Leh, Pangong lake, Hanle, Umling La and Tso Muriri. This helped my wife who was only interested in travel, enjoying the trip. Vijay ensured that our stay was taken care with decent accommodation and food. Overall a 5***** rating for the event. Highly recommended.Posted on Niharika NairTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a wonderful experience at the Bangalore Astronomy Club stargazing event.

Great experiencePosted on Kiran SirurmathTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Stargazing event at Chiguru farm, Karnataka on 8th & 9th March 2025 was an amazing experience with clear sky in the night and early morning, We could see much of what was planned: Jupiter with 2 moons, Mars; Star - Sirius; Messier - M4, M41, M42; Earth's Moon. Vijay keep the group engaging and interested. We had my in-laws in their 80's enjoying the celestial spectacle and with the young crowd in the group it was an enjoyable experience. Thanks Vijay and teamPosted on Adarsh PatelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was a good experience to learn and watch different parts of the space. Thanks Vijay.Posted on Mehul PoddarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stargazing: Vijay was knowledgeable and experienced. The telescope was powerful, so the best view we had - of the moon - was phenomenal. All other astronomical objects might not look as majestic but its still a much closer view than the naked eye and is really enjoyable! We also got to see (naked eye) the ISS and many satellites pass by, which was fantastic! Extras: Our event was conducted at Chiguru Farms - Container room. The stay and food was really good. We also had a farm tour which was fantastic. The farm host, Raghu, was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and encouraged us to climb on tress, pluck and eat fruits. All in all, a great experience!Posted on Ankit RastogiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstandingly pleasant and knowledgeable few hours spent with Vijay Kapoor , founder of BAC at Chiguru , outskirts of Bangalore. At the start we were apprehensive on the pretty hectic schedule of around 12 hours we had on astronomical overnight star, planet, satellites, space station, galaxy, nebula and anything in night sky kind of unique gazing event. But thanks to Vijay's depth of knowledge on Astronomy, multi talent across photography, astro photography / arts / painting / dialogue, his ability to hold his audience through his meticulous approach, experience as well as stunning equipments he assembles, carries and calm demonstration. It's worth it. Great way to spend to break the monotony of usual weekend getaways around BLR and learn some planetary science. Well complimented by Raghu and staff from Chiguru as a perfect place to stargaze. BAC is 100% fun.
