Christy McCarthy
We went on 2 tours during our holiday in New York- the My Christmas Morning Tour and the Dyker Heights/Dumbo Lights Tour. Both were absolutely amazing. Our tour guides offered a wealth of information and history about this beautiful city. They were also so upbeat, fun, charismatic, friendly, and professional. Marco also joined our group for the Lights Tour— so that was an added bonus. I’ve been on many tours in all different cities and this is by far the best tour company ever!!!
Michelle Leal
I went on the Dyker Heights and Dumbo tour, this was such an amazing experience. If you’re taking a trip to NY for the holidays, I recommend this tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and talked about the landmarks and attractions. The houses at Dyker Heights, were soo beautiful. The stop at DUMBO, made for great pictures. Next time in NY, I will do another tour. Thank you Marco and your team for an incredible experience. I’ll share a few pictures of the tour.

I have now been on all of MyChristmasinNewYotk tours and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Marco (Owner) and his team go all out to make these truly amazing experiences. Marco is there to meet and greet every tour group when you check-in. They provide clean, comfortable and modern coaches (with toilet) and the drivers are always friendly and helpful. The tour guides are exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly and always happy to answer any questions.
They also have really informative accounts on Instagram where Marco will do live streams and will often film very early morning to give his followers the best views or hot off the press news.
I wouldn’t consider using any other tour company when travelling to NYC as I know how hard Marco and his team work to give every customer a truly exceptional experience.
Check them out. You won’t be disappointed.

We have done, me and 3 friends, 3 tours with My Christmas in New York. We went to the amazing Dyker Heights, Dumbo and last stop was at Bryant Park, we had lunch with the My Christmas Morning in Manahatten Tour at restaurant Papillon, we have visited Union Square Christmas Market, the Wall Street Christmas Tree and the 9/11 Memorial at Night to finish this tour at the 230 Fifth Rooftopbar with the Holiday Spirit Tour. It was in one word amazing, lovely tourguides on all tours and a very special thanks to Marco & Dora, we had to make a few changes in the programm and had to rebook 2 tours but nothing was a problem, I was impressed how smoothly this was solved and got the updated tickets within minutes.

We went on your 4:30 tour last night (Dec 18th) with Katherine. She was fantastic and the tour itself was magical. It is a must-do in our opinion. One of the best things we did while visiting NYC. ❤️❤️
