Holiday Tree & Lights Tour Details

Holiday Tree and Light TourChicago during the winter holidays is truly magical! Make some holiday memories as we walk along city streets, lined with trees, lights and gorgeous window decor. We'll get you into the holiday spirit by sharing joyful traditions and Chicago's unique history of the season. We'll visit the "perfect" Christmas tree at Millennium Park, as well as several other favorites. Bundle up, bring your camera and come to celebrate the season with some cheerful company!

The group meets just outside Bloomingdale's on the 2nd floor of 900 N. Michigan Ave Shops where we'll soak in the sights of one of the most spectacular indoor Christmas Tree standing at 50ft tall!

Our tour will take guests on a leisurely stroll down the famous Magnificent Mile with block after block of shops decorating for the holiday season. We'll make plenty of stops INSIDE to give everyone a chance to warm up.

Finally, we'll cross the DuSable (Michigan Ave) Bridge over the Chicago River, make a stop at Millennium Park and then end the tour at Macy's Flagship State Street store which has been decorating their window displays as a holiday tradition for over 50 years!
