CHRISTMAS IN PITTSBURGH
Saturday, Nov. 28, 2020
Pittsburgh knows how to get dressed up for Christmas. We begin our Pittsburgh experience
by visiting PPG Place Wintergarden. See the 16 “Santas of the World,” each robed in traditional apparel, and a huge Christmas tree. Then we walk a short distance to see the European Christmas Market in downtown Pittsburgh. Afterward, we continue to Phipps Conservatory, where lunch is included. We’ll have time to peruse its beautiful Winter Flower Show as well as the gift shop. A significant highlight of this tour will be an evening Heinz Chapel Choir concert inside the ornate Heinz Chapel adjacent to the University of Pittsburgh. One of the themes of this concert will be Christmas music. A delicious dinner is included at the Grand Concourse Restaurant in the beautifully restored former Pittsburgh train station.

CLIFTON MILL CHRISTMAS LIGHTS

We begin our tour with a comfortable motorcoach ride down to Columbus for an included tour of
the Ohio Statehouse. Afterward, we have included lunch at Schmidt’s Restaurant in German Village. It serves excellent German food, buffet style. We will visit the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens with gardens to view indoor and very nice decorating for Christmas. This top-rated tour also features fabulous Christmas lights at a unique venue called Clifton Mill. Historic Clifton Mill is one of the largest water-powered grist mills still in existence. With more than two million lights, this is a sight to behold. There is the gorgeous backdrop of the Little Miami River with lights covering the entire Clifton Mill building, the Little Miami River banks, a historic 90-foot covered bridge and more. Clifton Mill is in Clifton, Ohio, which is 9 miles south of Springfield. There is a synchronized light show set to music along with a large miniature village and Nativity. The Santa Claus museum onsite features more than 3,000 Santas and Santa memorabilia. This tour will offer great memories for the entire family.
