Explore Portland Holiday Magic Aboard A Restored Vintage 1945 Chevy School Bus Tour


This 2-4 hour private Christmas lights tour offers a festive way to explore Portland’s neighborhoods and holiday displays in style. Guests can choose from several curated routes, including Southeast Portland’s Peacock Lane, Laurelhurst, Grant Park, and Irvington neighborhoods, or opt for Beaverton City Park and Hiteon. For those seeking a grand spectacle, the tour also visits the PIR Winter Wonderland, with the option to create a custom holiday itinerary tailored to your group's specific interests and preferences.


The experience takes place aboard a fully restored 1945 Chevy school bus, known as Gus, which provides a unique and nostalgic atmosphere. Guests can relax in comfortable seats while enjoying holiday music and sipping water provided on the bus. You are welcome to bring your own snacks and beverages to enhance the festive mood. The tour accommodates up to 20 people, making it an excellent choice for large family gatherings or groups of friends celebrating the season.


Riding Gus the bus is an experience in itself, as the vintage vehicle draws attention and admiration while gliding through Portland’s festive streets. Please note that entry to the PIR Winter Wonderland incurs an additional charge, which directly supports the Portland Sunshine Division Food Assistance Program. While the tour is designed to be family-friendly, children must be supervised at all times, and guests should be aware that the bus is not wheelchair accessible, requiring passengers to climb three steps.


Additional hours for the tour are available for an extra fee if you wish to extend your holiday celebration. Whether you are marveling at the lights of Peacock Lane or enjoying the festive displays at Grant Park, this tour provides a memorable way to experience the holiday spirit. By combining vintage charm with the best light displays in the city, this private excursion ensures a cozy and festive evening for everyone involved in the holiday journey.
