Solar Express: Discover Exciting New Holiday Homes on Ride 347!

Ride 347, a shuttle service operating between Maricopa and Phoenix Sky Harbor, is launching bus excursions for all ages as part of InMaricopa’s Holiday Homes on Parade. This annual Christmas homes tour, now in its 19th year, promises a festive experience for attendees.

Lori Riley, co-owner of Ride 347, expressed enthusiasm about the event, stating, “We are very excited. We hope people reach out to us on our Facebook page to share their favorite houses so we can include them on our tours.” This community involvement aims to highlight the most decorated homes in the area.

This week, Riley, alongside her team, will scout the houses to craft the best possible route, ensuring the most meticulously decorated homes are featured. “It might change a little bit every night as we narrow it down,” she noted, suggesting that flexibility will be key in optimizing the tour experience.

The tours commence on December 14, beginning with a 6 p.m. excursion exclusively for seniors aged 55 and older. Subsequent tours will take place every other day, including December 16, 18, 22, 24, 26, 28, and 30, with two time slots available on most days—6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Notably, there will be only one tour on December 24.

Each tour will last approximately one hour and fifteen minutes, departing from the northeast parking lot of Copper Sky by the lake. The capacity for each tour is limited to 14 participants.
