Overview

The tour starts by boarding a heated motor coach with restrooms in Midtown Manhattan. It travels about an hour to Dyker Heights in Brooklyn, where the guide leads guests to Lucy Spata's house, known as the origin of the Christmas lights tradition. The group walks through the two most decorated streets while the guide explains the history, then guests have about an hour to walk freely and take photos of the elaborate displays. Next, the coach takes the group to Brooklyn Heights near the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, where there is a stop of about 25 minutes to view and photograph the Manhattan skyline and the bridge itself. The exact stop length may vary slightly depending on traffic conditions. Finally, the tour returns to Manhattan via the Manhattan Bridge and concludes at Bryant Park Winter Village. Here, visitors can browse over 150 market stalls selling seasonal food, drinks, and gifts. An ice skating rink with skate rental is also available, and the colorful Bryant Park Christmas tree is on display. The Rockefeller Center and its tree are within walking distance from this final stop. This guided coach tour lasts about 3 hours and 45 minutes and operates rain or shine.

1

Dyker Heights

This main stop includes a walking tour to Lucy Spata's house, the starting point of the Christmas lights tradition. The guide escorts guests through the two streets with the most decorations. Due to narrow streets, the bus cannot enter Dyker Heights, so guests walk for about an hour to explore and photograph the lights independently.
