A passion passed down.
A wonder shared.
A journey into the heart of the stars
In a world that moves ever faster, there is still one timeless and universally captivating spectacle: the night sky.
The Moon Experience was born from a simple belief: the most beautiful moments reconnect us with something greater than ourselves.
Our adventure is first and foremost a family story, with a passion for astronomy passed down through generations. Hector and I, Olivier, are respectively the grandson and son of an astronomer who worked at the Nice and Calern observatories. Above Nice stands the magnificent Great Dome, designed by Charles Garnier and Gustave Eiffel — a monument to humanity’s exploration of the universe.
Hector continued this legacy with several internships alongside the lunar laser-ranging programme teams at the Calern Observatory.
Today we share this sense of wonder with guests at some of the finest establishments.
When a guest approaches our telescope, they do more than look at the sky. They step into a story billions of years old: of sailors guided by stars, civilizations that named constellations and dreamers who sought to understand the universe.
With our high-precision Celestron telescope, we invite guests on a celestial journey to discover Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s moons, the major constellations, distant stars and the galaxies that fill our universe.
When the Moon lights the sky, the experience becomes especially striking. Its craters, mountains and shadows reveal themselves with extraordinary clarity, offering the rare sensation of bringing another world within reach.
Our evenings are more than astronomy observations. They are personal moments of discovery and conversation, enriched with stories, mythology and explanations everyone can enjoy. Hector and I guide guests personally in French or English, in an atmosphere that is warm, elegant and intimate.
Designed to blend naturally into the prestigious setting of your establishment, each evening becomes a distinctive experience, where thoughtful hospitality meets the magic of the universe.
The Moon Experience is an invitation to slow down, dream and rediscover wonder. A moment outside time, bringing generations together — and leaving every guest with more than a memory: the feeling of having touched the stars with their eyes.
