10pm update

It is mostly clear, our tour will go ahead. The meeting point is 70 Andrew Don Drive (please only use Google Maps), you will need to drive on a gravel road for 200 meters, then you will see a sign with a red light that says ”Chameleon Stargazing”, you need to turn right at the sign and enter the gate marked with 2 road cones. 

Once you enter, you will find a second sign, depending on which tour you are joining you will need to either turn left (English Tour) or keep straight (Mandarin Tour). Drive for another 100 meters and you will find the location with red lights on. We don’t have a toilet on site, please get ready before coming to the site. See you at 10pm
