Our Christmas Lights Tour is back this December and we cannot wait to welcome you on board! Get wrapped up ready for a unique festive experience for all the family aboard an open top bus.

Running on selected dates in December the festive tour leaves Newport Bus Station at 6.30pm. The Southern Vectis Christmas Lights Tour offers spectacular views of the Isle of Wight at night and visits some of the Island's best Christmas light displays. 

With the bus decked out in tinsel and lights, Christmas tunes playing overhead and Santa behind the wheel, the Christmas Lights Tour is the perfect festive night out for families, friends, couples, adults and children alike - a truly unique way to enjoy the Island at Christmas.

There is limited capacity on each trip so book early to avoid disappointment.

This year we will stop off for refreshments at our Charity of the Year; The Wildheart Animal Sanctuary Cafe and Shop. You will be able to buy mulled wine, hot chocolate, filter coffee, tea or a soft drink plus a festive treat doughnut, sweets, or a mince pie for £5.99.

The Wildheart Shop will also be open for fabulous Christmas gift ideas for all the family.

The whole trip will last around 120 mins. Wrap up warm and join us for some festive fun.
