This isn’t just another ride through New York — it’s a holiday experience that blends sightseeing, tea, and festive magic. Step aboard a signature pink bus and enjoy a guided journey from Central Park South to the New York Botanical Garden. Sip up to three fine teas, savor sweet and savory bites, and listen to live commentary filled with fascinating stories about New York City’s history and landmarks. What makes this tour truly unique is the combination of a cozy tea service and one of NYC’s most beloved seasonal traditions: the Holiday Train Show at NYBG. Travelers are treated to round-trip transportation, admission to the garden and its Wonderland: Curious Nature exhibition, plus festive onboard entertainment with Elves on every trip — and Santa himself on select holiday departures. It’s the perfect way to see the city in comfort, celebrate the holiday season, and create memories you won’t find on any other tour.
