FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
STATEN ISLAND, NY — Legacy Wise Experiences, the travel and events arm of Legacy Wise Advisors, is now booking seats on a one-day family holiday motorcoach trip to Peddler's Village and New Hope, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, November 21, 2026 — the Village's Holiday Kickoff Weekend, one day after its million holiday lights switch on for the season.
The day is built light on purpose, so kids aren't worn out before the lights come on. Check-in opens at 10:00 AM at the Eltingville Transit Center Park & Ride on Staten Island and the coach departs at 10:15 AM, with a second pickup at Woodbridge Center in Woodbridge, NJ (check-in 10:25 AM at the Macy's entrance facing Route 9; pickup 10:35 AM). The first stop is New Hope, the storybook river town on the Delaware — a late-morning stroll down decorated Main Street and a warm-up stop at the Ferry Market food hall. The afternoon belongs to Peddler's Village: the Gingerbread Competition & Display with more than 100 entries, more than 60 shops, carolers and strolling performers, and Giggleberry Fair for the kids. Dinner is on your own among the Village's restaurants. Then, at dusk, the Village's million holiday lights come on with the group right there in the middle of it. The coach departs Peddler's Village at 6:15 PM, drops Woodbridge passengers at about 7:35 PM, and is back on Staten Island at about 7:55 PM.
Admission at both stops is free — the fare is the motorcoach, the escort, and the plan. Seats are priced by boarding tier: the first 20 paid seats are $60 per adult (13+) and $50 per child (12 & under) and include free Priority Boarding; seats 21–49 are $65 adult / $55 child. Groups of six or more booked together ride at $55 flat per guest with code GROUP55. Every traveler who books and rides receives a $20 Future Experience Credit toward a future Legacy Wise Experience. One bus only — 49 seats. Booking closes Friday, November 6, 2026.
"This is the trip I wanted to give Staten Island families," said Michael J. Fusco, founder of Legacy Wise Advisors. "One bus, one easy day — New Hope in the morning, Peddler's Village all afternoon, and a million lights at dusk before we roll home. No driving, no hunting for parking on the busiest weekend of their season, nobody worn out. We handle the road; families get the day."
An optional Tour Protection waiver is available at booking for $7.50 per traveler, allowing cancellation for any reason up to 10:15 AM on Thursday, November 19, 2026, for a full fare refund. (Tour Protection is a cancellation waiver offered by Legacy Wise Experiences; it is not insurance.) If the trip does not run, guests choose a full refund of everything paid or moving their payment to a rescheduled date at the price paid — never a forced credit.
Booking is open now at https://tally.so/r/yXPp4x and at legacywiseenterprises.com/peddlers-village-new-hope-nov-21.html. Seats can also be booked by phone at (929) 515-5159. Legacy Wise Experiences also builds private group outings for companies, organizations, and families.
