🎄🚨 Important!!! But Still Merry Info for Your BYOB Christmas Light Trolley Tour! 🎁✨

​​​

We’re here to sleigh the season and bring you a night full of twinkling lights, laughter, and holiday cheer! That said, a few Grinch-y things like traffic or weather might try to slow us down.


🕒 Timing at Each Stop May VarySanta's sleigh isn’t the only thing that might hit traffic! ⛄🎄 While we do our best to stick to schedule, weather and road conditions may cause delays. Don’t worry... we’ll keep the holiday spirit rolling no matter what!

🗺️ The Route is Subject to a Little Christmas MagicSometimes, light displays unexpectedly close or roads get too icy for even Rudolph. If that happens, we’ll pivot faster than a reindeer on ice and guide you to an equally magical holiday route. 🌟


🎄 Sunday Route Special!If you're joining us on a Sunday, your tour starts with the twinkling tree at Campus Martius, glides over to the glowing Detroit Zoo Lights, and wraps up with the dazzling Rochester Big Bright Light Show! Talk about a triple treat! 🎁✨


🚌 If the Trolley Can’t Trot…In rare cases where trolley travel isn’t safe (thanks, winter weather!), we’ll swap it out for one of our decked-out Christmas buses. 🚌
