What are people saying about New York City

Robert_J, Jan 2026

Family Christmas Break

It was a great tour of the meat packing area and dyker heights in brooklyn!!!! I was a bit skeptical about the tour of the meat packing area but it was very interesting to hear about the changes that occured in that part of Manhattan over the years. All seen from the comfort of the bus. The Dyker Heights had some hill walking so keep that in mind. Well spent money, even the 17 yr old son enjoyed the lights.

New York City Christmas Lights Private Horse Carriage Ride

Kirstie_E, Jan 2026

Absolutely brilliant a must do when in New York.

Mohammad was a brilliant guide and was really friendly. He was waiting ready for us when we arrived. We Had a blanket to keep us warm and even had a bit of Christmas music playing which was lovely. Michelle the horse was absolutely beautiful the carriage was spotless. We really enjoyed the whole experience and highly recommend to do this when visiting New York especially at Christmas time. We had lots of opportunities to have our pictures taken which look fabulous even at the tree and got to see the light show at jacks. Thank you so much we will be doing the same next year when we visit.

Brooklyn Christmas Lights Walking Tour (Dyker Heights)

Nancy_A, Dec 2025

Even better than I expected!

Wow! I've been wanting to do this for a couple of years and so happy that I finally did! Ryan was a great tour guide - he's been a tour guide for I think 18 years and you could tell the enthusiasm that he had for the city, the neighborhood and this particular tour. He explained a lot of the history of the neighborhood and the lights and also was great maneuvering a large group through very crowded streets and sidewalks. Definitely recommend and so happy that I did it!

Elf and Home Alone 2 Movie Locations Tour in Central Park

Christina_F, Dec 2025

An Absolutely Incredible Experience!!

This experience was out of This world! We are Native New Yorkers and were simply blown away by the professionalism, attention to detail, creativity and the creation of a memorable holiday experience for our family! We will remember it for years to come, and we would love to do this tour again! Our drivers safely whisked us through Central Park during the peak of the holiday season, pointing out MUCH MORE than just the “Home Alone 2” and “Elf” movie details…these talented guides not only entertained, but were amazingly well versed historians on film, architecture, celebrities, music and MORE. I would give more than 5 stars if it was an option! We had SUCH a great time! Well done and THANK YOU!!!

NYC Christmas Lights Tour by Limousine, SUV Or VAN. Dyker Heights

Margaret_S, Dec 2025

Great Tour with Oleg

This tour was excellent. Our driver was Oleg and he was very caring, making sure we were comfortable and warm. It was a very, very cold and windy night. I have difficulty walking and he was very accommodating in helping me in and out of Van. The Van was spotless and very easy to enter. The tour was for my family and teenage grandchildren. They were delighted once we were in Dyker Heights. I could go on and on, but I will say the tour was excellent, but a bit expensive.

Brooklyn Dyker Heights Christmas Wonderland Bus Tour

Kimberly_K, Dec 2025

This is THE Dyker Heights tour to take!

The best bang for your buck experience I’ve ever paid for! Sebastian was a wonderful host. He gave us great history as we drove to and from Dyker Heights. It was a great opportunity to see more of the city too. The extra stop at DUMBO was way more than I anticipated. You get some gorgeous cityscape scenes from that point. The actual Christmas lights tour was great. The over the top decorations were so fun! Sebastian did a great job making sure we all remained together, which sometimes had to have been a challenge with other tour groups and it being dark. Wonderful, wonderful tour from beginning to end. Book it!

New York City Cocoa and Carols Holiday Cruise

Caron_A, Dec 2025

The best of Christmas!!

We had a wonderful time singing along and enjoying a warm cozy Christmas atmosphere. Staff and entertainment were wonderful. Comfortable tables with a perfect view of the bridges and the Statue of Liberty. Great photos. The "homemade" Christmas cookies were really homemade. At least they tasted like it. Really yummy. I would recommend this adventure to anyone in the city of the holidays!!
