Christmas Light Tour Limo · Portland's Four Big Displays
Four displays shape a holiday light route in Portland. Two are walk-through. One is drive-through. Peacock Lane is both, depending on the night. We set your pickup time by which display you want first.
Peacock Lane, SE Portland
Peacock Lane sits between SE Belmont and SE Stark around 39th. It runs Dec 15–31, 6–10 PM. Dec 15–16 are pedestrian-only. On those nights we drop you at SE Belmont & 39th, you walk the two blocks, and we pick you up at SE Stark & 39th. Dec 17–31 are drive-through nights. We time those before 7 PM or after 9 PM, because the mid-evening weekend queue runs 30–45 minutes.
Oregon Zoo ZooLights
ZooLights runs Nov 20–Jan 3 and opens at 4:30 PM. It is a walk-through, so we drop you at the zoo and wait with the vehicle. It is closed Nov 24–26 and Dec 25. Jan 1–2 are 21+ only. Buy your tickets from the zoo before the ride.
The Grotto Festival of Lights
The Grotto runs Nov 27–Dec 30, 5–10 PM. Last ticket is 9:30 PM. You walk a lit forest path, and nightly choir concerts play in the indoor Chapel of Mary. Admission is separate. We plan arrival so your group is through the gate before 9:30 PM.
PIR Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland at Portland International Raceway runs Nov 27–Dec 31 on the evenings listed on the venue's schedule. It is drive-through on the race track. The venue bills it as the largest holiday light show west of the Mississippi. You stay in your seats. We drive the loop.
Planning Your Portland Holiday Light Tour
Most tours run 2–3 hours. Start time is usually 5:30–7 PM, depending on route. The Suburban or Yukon fits families of 4–6. The Sprinter takes groups up to 14. Tell us which displays matter most. We build the order around closing times and queues.
What Your Christmas Light Tour Chauffeur Handles
Your chauffeur drives the route, watches the clock, and stays with the vehicle at every stop. Kids getting tired? We head home early. Grandparents want to skip a walk-through? We wait with them in the vehicle. Extra stops and early departures are part of the booking.

The cruise leaves from Salmon Springs Dock and runs 9 PM–12:30 AM. We drop you at the dock and pick you up there when it returns.
Hotels and Venues: The Hoxton and Holocene
The Hoxton Hotel in Old Town runs rooftop and basement bar NYE programming. Holocene in SE Portland hosts the DREAMSTATE NYE club event. Do one, or do both. Your driver is with you all night.

From the Operator
Most families start at ZooLights. From the zoo we head out to Winter Wonderland at PIR, and some finish the night on Peacock Lane. That full route runs about 5–6 hours. We usually run it in the SUV, and the panoramic sunroof makes a big difference when you're looking up at the lights. It seats six, so it's perfect for a family of four or five. Bigger groups get the Sprinter, with its huge windows.
