New York City
Manhattan is a hub of holiday cheer. There are many ways for travelers and locals to experience the city with a special holiday flare including Christmas and New Year’s festivities. The Viator VIP: Rockefeller Center Ice Skating Experience and Top of the Rock Observation Deck brings together quintessential NYC holidays featuring a skate-lacing concierge, a world-class view and one of the world’s most iconic Christmas trees. Complementing the holiday classics like Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular and ice-skating in Central Park, Viator also features an innovation on the sightseeing scene – THE RIDE – whose family friendly Holiday Edition includes festive scenes acted out on the streets of New York. For a party you don’t have to plan, enjoy Christmas Eve Dinner with Lady Liberty during the Viator Exclusive: Luxury Christmas Eve Dinner Cruise or watch the ball drop in Times Square on New Year’s Eve from an exclusive executive party suite complete with dinner, dancing and no crowds.
San Francisco
Enjoy the charms unique to the City by the Bay and hop aboard an open-air vintage Mack fire engine to embark on a night filled with festive music and candy canes during the San Francisco Fire Engine Holiday Lights Tour.

To cap off the season, the Viator VIP: Exclusive Chicago New Year's Eve Luxury Dinner Cruise will glide revelers along Lake Michigan to enjoy an intimate dining, dancing and fireworks cruise experience.
