Leave Manado’s lights behind for an evening under the stars, watching them come out over the coconut palms at a dark spot chosen for the night’s weather.

Michael times the outing around the weather and the moon: nights with little or no moon show the most stars. Clear skies are never guaranteed, so he confirms on the day. Pickup and return are from your Manado hotel.
