Take a festive stroll through Dyker Heights

Once you arrive in Dyker Heights, a local Brooklyn guide will lead you through the most iconic displays, sharing fun stories about the neighborhood’s decades-old Christmas tradition. Along the way, enjoy complimentary hot chocolate and a holiday cookie from the “Brooklyn Deli” as you take in the sparkling lights. You’ll see Lucy Spata’s famous house, the one that started it all over 40 years ago, and wander past houses decorated with toy soldiers, reindeer, snowmen, and glowing nativity scenes. It’s like stepping into a holiday movie set, with each home adding its own twist to the festive fun. With the guided walking tour, you’ll soak up the neighborhood’s energy and creativity—an experience that brings holiday cheer to life.

Enjoy the scenic ride with onboard narration

The holiday spirit starts the moment you board the luxury bus at Times Square.

With onboard narration, you’ll get insights into these landmarks, adding a touch of NYC magic to your journey.

Wrap up your evening at Bryant Park’s Winter Village

After the lights tour, the bus will drop you back in Manhattan near the New York Public Library, right by Bryant Park’s Winter Village. Here, you can keep the holiday vibes going with a stroll through the market, a warm drink, or a spin on the ice-skating rink.
