Just booked the Dyker Heights tour for my fam! Any tips?

Hey everyone! I just bought the private tour for my family this Christmas. I can’t wait to see the lights in Dyker Heights! Has anyone done this before? What should we wear and is 3 hours too long for little kids? What should we definitely not miss?

Thoughts on the Dyker Heights Christmas lights tour?

Hey guys! I’m considering gifting this experience for my parents who love Christmas lights. Has anyone been? I heard the displays are insane! How's the mulled wine? Worth it?
