Took my money and left me stranded!

Ron_R, Dec 2025

It’s not really an organized event. Nothing happened as promised. Total rip off. Never could get even to security so couldn’t get to event. Where’s the Viator representative to help? No one answered their phones while we stood in line 2 hours and 45 minutes. Total on your own with no help in huge crowds. Could never get to security and looked for Viator assistance the entire time!

Great place

Thad_T, Dec 2023

It was a great place to see the tree lighting. I just wish there was more seating as we had to eat at the bar. I also wish therewere more windows to watch it

The organization was very...

Meinolf_M, Dec 2025

The organization was very poor. We were picked up way too late at the meeting point. The party wasn't worth the money either. There was only one mediocre buffet. Far too expensive from the price. The only good thing was that we could stand relatively close to the tree. But is not recommended for the price.
