Testimonials

“Paul and I had a wonderful private tour with Dyker Heights Christmas Lights. Our tour guide, Steven, was knowledgeable about the Christmas lights tradition and the neighborhood’s history. The decorated homes were terrific to see, and we captured stunning photos. I highly recommend this company if you plan to book a tour to see the beautiful Dyker Heights Christmas Lights.”

“I had the time of my life; I told everyone about how wonderful this tour is and most importantly that it is run by locals that give back to the community. Until next year (yes, I plan on making this a tradition) continue to spread the joy and kindness.”

“Dyker Heights Christmas Lights. This is one of the best New York attractions during the holiday season. The Dyker Heights neighborhood in Brooklyn is home to the most over-the-top Christmas light decorations. Watch more in my IGTV. Thank you @dyker_heights_christmas_lights for the tour. Check out this company for their wonderful guided tour of the light displays originating from Manhattan. ”

Sharing my love of NYC through pictures

“I’m back in NYC just in time for the holidays! I am very excited to be taking the Dyker Heights Christmas Lights tour. This area has the best Christmas decorations; each house has a different theme. Unfortunately, getting here can be a major drag since it is not accessible by subway. This tour offers round-trip transportation from midtown Manhattan to South Brooklyn in comfort and includes a walking tour. There is no need to find an Uber for the same price; it is well worth it. I had a great time!”

“Congratulations to Steven, for taking the lead role to create Dyker Heights Christmas Lights. It was a magical walk through the neighborhood seeing the amazing Christmas decorations. Plus, topping off the evening with delicious Brooklyn pizza, hot chocolate and a visit from Santa made it so special. We look forward to coming back! ”

“I have booked a tour with DHCL and we had a blast! The tour operator was so sweet and he was giving us a little historical explanation about the place! We started the tour in the local Church and the tour guide showed us the best way to walk in order to see the best Christmas decorations! Definitely worth it to book it with DHCL!”
