Itinerary
This holiday tour takes you to the residential neighborhoods of Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights, Italian-American sections of Brooklyn where you will find tree-lined streets and beautiful private residences decorated for the Christmas holidays. It has been a tradition for many years to illuminate these homes with thousands of lights and dazzling Christmas scenes and has become a friendly competition between owners. You won't just see the lights; you'll walk through the neighborhoods with a guide to hear the stories behind this fun holiday event that brings thousands of people here each year. You may even meet some homeowners who are a proud part of this festive holiday.
On your way back to Manhattan, you'll see the spectacular New York skyline and some of the beautiful displays on our stop at the Brooklyn Bridge.
Get beautiful views from the Brooklyn Bridge of the Manhattan Skyline. You'll be dropped off in Midtown to conclude your tour.

Traveler reviews
Magical and relaxing tour for the Christmas season
Fairytale tour of the Dyker Heigths neighborhood, our guide Antonio guided us with professionalism and one with a definite gift for human relationships. He gave us the most detailed information about the different families who initiated this tradition of home decorations for Christmas.
Christmas Lights w family
We went on Christmas Day evening. It was super crowded, nobody's fault but it was difficult to stay with the group leader and not get lost. Houses were cool. Could have done a shorter tour. The stop on the way home was nice to take a picture with the city skyline. Our guide did a good job just so crowded.
The houses were phenomenal we definitely saw a great pick
Our tour guide was fantastic on the way there and back he talked about the history of NYci ty and the buildings passed I would give him 110 out of 100
Fabulous
Daniel and Adell did a great job. So fun. The tour was well thought out and very exciting. The tour is 3 hours long while walking through the neighborhoods and then the Brooklyn bridge. Highly recommend
Dyker Heights Tour -- It's An Enlightening Experience!
All in all, the tour was excellent! Camilla was great! I would recommend deleting the Bay Ridge part of the tour and reducing the tour maybe to 3.0-3.5 hours. We enjoyed the stop at "DUMBO". One recommendation...Camilla used music to alert her tourists of her whereabouts. It's a wonderful idea, except some of the Dyker Heights homes had music blasting at their homes, drowning out Camilla's music. She uses "What's App" if any tourists lost her temporarily, another great idea -- we used it at least once. (I'm not sure if there was a 5:00pm tour option; if not, it wouldn't be a bad idea to offer this as an additional time option.) Also, Johnny (the tour bus driver), was wonderful!
