Get ready for the most magical way to celebrate the season in the City of Brotherly Love! City Sightseeing Philadelphia has officially launched its four-in-one Holiday Light Trolley Tours, a dazzling 90-minute ride through the city’s most spectacular holiday displays—now through January 5, 2026.

Climb aboard a Victorian-style trolley, decked out with twinkling lights and festive décor, for a night filled with holiday spirit, sing-alongs, and local flavor. Each tour departs from the Bourse Building in Old City and travels to Philadelphia’s most beautiful light shows, including Franklin Square’s Electrical Spectacle, the Smedley Street Christmas Spectacular, and the beloved Miracle on South 13th Street. You’ll also enjoy drive-by views of LOVE Park, City Hall, Dilworth Park, the Comcast Center, and more – all set against the glow of Philadelphia’s winter skyline.

This year, City Sightseeing adds something truly Philly to the mix – the brand-new Cheesesteak and Light Tour, in partnership with Skinny Joey’s Cheesesteaks. Between twinkling lights and festive carols, guests can hop off to grab a genuine Philly cheesesteak — the ultimate combo of local flavor and holiday cheer.

Whether you’re planning a cozy date night, a family outing, or a fun twist on your holiday party, these BYO trolleys offer the perfect holiday escape. Tours run seven days a week, including Christmas Day, with departures every 15 minutes from 5:00 PM to 10:30 PM.

Tickets start at $49.99 with options for individuals, groups, and private rentals.
