See NYC Christmas lights, learn some history and be comfortable!

Published on Dec, 2024

Our guide John was terrific— full of stories and history of nyc. He was fun! It was great being driven around as we went to places all over the city which we would never have been able to see all of those Christmas lights on our own. Surprisingly we weren’t stuck in traffic other than the first 10 minutes. The driver Johnny knew what streets to take,etc. I highly recommend this tour to see NYC’s Christmas lights, learn some nyc history and be comfortable .

Great tour of New York City with Santa.

Published on Dec, 2024

This tour was absolutely wonderful! Our tour guide, “Santa Claus,” and our driver were incredibly informative, kind and thoughtful throughout the entire experience. We highly recommend it and would gladly do it again!

A must do during Christmas Holidays

Published on Dec, 2024

Do this tour by second day into Nyc- that way you havent already seen some of the lights yourself. Tour guide Lyonel clearly loves his job and is passionate relegating tales pf the different spots. If I had 1 critique it would be to remove the 20 minute dinner stop at a pizza joint- didnt relish the idea pf a rushed dinner between a tour which lengthed the tour unnecessary especially since the dinner spot had absolutely nothing to do with Christmas lights! Viator please do away with this “ dinner break”

Wonderful

Published on Dec, 2024

My tour guide was excellent! He was very friendly and knowledgeable. I would certainly recommend this experience to a friend.

Holdays Lights and More!

Published on Dec, 2024

We saw many more sights than we thought we would. The tour guide was very friendly and informative. We also loved the glass ceiling on the shuttle so we could see all the lights. I highly recommend!
