Get ready to celebrate the holiday season in Philadelphia! City Sightseeing Philadelphia has launched its Holiday Light Trolley Tours, running now through January 5, 2026. This 90-minute ride takes you through the city’s best holiday displays.
Hop on a Victorian-style trolley, all decked out with lights and decorations. Enjoy a night filled with holiday spirit, sing-alongs, and local flavor. Each tour starts at the Bourse Building in Old City and visits stunning light shows like Franklin Square’s Electrical Spectacle, the Smedley Street Christmas Spectacular, and the famous Miracle on South 13th Street. You’ll also get to see LOVE Park, City Hall, Dilworth Park, and the Comcast Center, all glowing against Philadelphia’s winter skyline.
This year, there’s something special: the new Cheesesteak and Light Tour, in partnership with Skinny Joey’s Cheesesteaks. Guests can hop off the trolley to grab a classic Philly cheesesteak while enjoying the festive atmosphere.
These BYO trolleys are perfect for date nights, family outings, or a fun holiday party. Tours run daily, 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.
