Telescope Rentals
Renting a telescope for a week is the best way to find out what you will actually use. You can test a smart telescope from your balcony, see whether a large Dobsonian fits in your car, or bring a telescope to the cottage for a holiday week without committing to a purchase.
Our rental fleet includes the Seestar S30 Pro smart telescope, the Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130 and the Sky-Watcher 300P Flextube Dobsonian. The Seestar can be shipped. The larger telescopes are pick-up only and may require a security deposit. Details are on each rental page.
