The lights were amazing, but Tony Muia is well spoken, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Tony made the experience wonderful for everyone! |

It was definitely not worth the money to ride around neighborhoods where even the sidewalk trees were super-decorated. The houses featured in the malfunctioning video were disappointing. My friend told me there was more substance on the Pizza tour, such as some historical facts. I was expecting more factual information, a reason to travel to Brooklyn.For example, How the areas evolved from early settlements, to what they have become today
.One could go to the Bronx, or other places, to see similarly decorated homes. The house that was unique was the Greek house, but not worth $55.00 per person.
I will not chance taking another tour with this company.. |

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The sights were as described and even more than expected. What a great way to learn about Brooklyn. I'll be back to do more tours.
In addition, the driver and the comfort of the bus were exceptional. First class experience all the way!!! |

This was a wonderful holiday tour. The bus was very comfortable and warm. The bus driver was excellent. Tony is a fantastic tour guide who is very professional and interesting and a delight! The lights and the homes were beautiful and the stories and information that Tony gave us were very interesting. The stop at the bakery for a coffee and pastry was delicious and was fun. Everyone seemed to be having fun. It is worth seeing. |

Tony is most amiable and to be commended for his tours.
This one lacked a bit ..The group agreed that more information..or running commentary would have made a difference.
Some passengers were on prior tours, but many were not so Brooklyn history and neighborhood anecdotes would have added substance. |

5 Star Tour - Perfect 10 Cannoli!

Christmas lights were fantastic and a real treat for us city dwellers. Tony, our guide is a real people person and his enthusiasm was contagious. We felt like kids again, awestruck at the wonder of the gorgeous lights and decorations. Mona Lisa Bakery served the freshest, tastiest, best cannoli I've ever eaten in my life. Wonderful evening, don't miss it. (Pizza Tour is great fun too!) Angie and friends, NYC |

If you're not in the Christmas spirit, Tony's tour will get you there. This is an intimate tour of the Brooklyn Christmas lights by a man who has lived there all his life and knows the various homeowners personally. Ending the tour at the Mona Lisa Bakery is a little piece of Heaven. |

The bus tour was not as informative as I would hope. It was also unclear how much walking there would be, which I did not mind but others seemed to. I thought it could have been shorter with slightly less money for what we got. |

I just wanted to see lights, lights and more lights. Didn't need details on homes and who was millionare and such. Thought it was a bit over priced in comparison to the Sex and the City tour. Too long for children to enjoy. |
