This tour was very well organised and a great way to see the holiday lights in Brooklyn. We were lucky enought to have snow on the evening of our tour so it was very magical! Highly recommended!

A Magical Night
Sat, Dec 20, 08   7:00 PM RobertDonlan Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Oh boy!! It was cold. The night sky was heavy with impending snow. The waiting bus was clean, warm, and welcoming. The hosts were personable, enthusiastic , and overflowing with Christmas spirit. The decorated homes set a tone of over the top cheer and bright, positive feeling. In a phrase- it was a wonderful night. Whoever put in the order for snow to accompany the walking segment should be awarded a holiday award for atmosphere. We loved the trip!

Pizza was great!
Sat, Dec 20, 08   11:00 AM MCatrino Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Pizza and tour was very good. Our tour guide, Paula, was very good too. However, I thought the trip was slightly overpriced. You were limited to how much pizza you could eat and I felt somwhat rushed out of the restaurants.

We've been on the slice of pizza tour in April 2008, when Tony informed us about the christmas light tour. So the first thing I said to my boyfriend was "we need to came back to New York around christmas time!" and so we did. I need to confess that at first I was a bite disapointed when we heard that Tony wasn't our gide that evening, instead Rick did the tour. Which of course was also very good and much fun! We really enjoyed the tour and where surprised how many houses are decorated! We had snow that day, so it was even more beautiful!

A Christmas Lights Tour of Brooklyn
Fri, Dec 19, 08   7:00 PM marcymckean Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The tour guide was not waiting on the street carrying the "A Slice of Brooklyn' clipboard. If you do need to call the emergency contact number, leave a message, then call back because they don't call you. It was unfortunate that it was a rainy evening because the windows of the bus fogged up and didn't clear up right away. Bring some paper towels because they don't have anything for you to wipe the windows. Once you're on the bus the tour is nice. You receive some interesting information about Brooklyn and see some great "stuff." (Stuff = lights)

Let it snow, Let it Snow, Let's eat some Zaaaaa...

The tour was well organized, on time & fun. The only bad thing is that the weather was terrible for sightseeing -in or out of the mini-bus. If only the windows would have de-fogged better. Paula (our guide) however was not to be defeated and carried on enthusiastically. Danny, the driver navigated the slippery roads like a pro. Walking thru 4" of snow on Coney Islands board walk would not be something I'd do again, great pictures though. The pizza at both locations was as good as it gets, and there plenty to eat- and leftover. She said at the beginning that a large group had cancelled so the only thing I wonder is if there would have been the same amount of pizza, which would have stretched it thin. Overall a solid "10" with a 5 handicap for the snow.

Pizza with Pizzaz

Although the weather was not perfect, the tour was. Paula was excellent; very charming ( and easy to look at), and very knowledgeable. The tour made us want to come back to Brooklyn, and not just for the pizza, but that would be a necessary start. My wife, dressed in all black, on a snow covered Coney Island Boardwalk ,made a piece of art. We loved it and so will you. Steven and Rachel Binegar Versailles, Ky

great lites tour and evening
Sun, Dec 14, 08   7:00 PM johnmoore Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The Brooklyn Lites Tour was very enjoyable. The neigborhood descriptions and personal stories were great and provided a wondeful context for the presentation of the residential lite displays. Would recommend the tour to others who enjoy learning about community and neighborhood leaders and histories.

SO THIS IS BROOKLYN!!!
Sun, Dec 14, 08   7:00 PM 1newyorkman Male 30-39 Local Other
I had a wonderful time on the tour-as a Queens native-I must say that I felt like I was in Queens and not Brooklyn. If I was to compare my block to the blocks I saw in Brooklyn-it was like comparing a full symphony orchestra to a kid banging on the drum. The homeowners are sure making Con Edison rich!!! This is a great seasonal tour that is highly recommended for anyone who would like to add a Magnificent Christmas memory. I can't wait to go on the Brooklyn neighborhood tour and get to know another part of Brooklyn, U.S.A.

Must be seen to be believed

One of a kind experience. At first I was unsure what the tour would be like and how you'd actually see the lights from the bus windows. However, that was unfounded as the bus does stop in areas with concentrated lights to allow everyone to get off and look closer and take photos. Tony our guide was very real and enthusiastic and knowledgeable giving just enough commentary as he pointed out the different neightborhoods from the Gowanus expressway and talked about the lighted houses as we drove by. I thought the tour was the easiest, quickest, and most relaxing way to make sure that you saw all the highlights of the decorated houses in Dyker Heights

disappointed with the optional stop
Sat, Dec 13, 08   7:00 PM bxw2721 Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
Bus : great and I'm glad he had gotten the larger-size bus that knees. Bus driver: great & able to make those tight turns plus knows his way around. Video presentation: great. Audio: disappointed that we were not able to connect the radio channel to be in sync with the lights at the final house, hence a disappointing finale. Optional: Mona Lisa Bakery: very poor rating. [ I would add that we have some in our group that had lived in Europe, been to Italy and grew up in NYC's Little Italy!] Lousy food, bad service, but large cups of coffee. Guide: OK, but can show a bit more enthusiam and passion. Some bare facts had already been mentioned on the other tours. [ FYI, these are the usual specific comments that we ask our travellers] I am a professional Travel Agent with over 20 years of experience. Sincerely, Linda Loo
