Big Apple Helicopter Tour

It was great, but hard to take pictures in such a cramped space. Personnel not as friendly as stated on line, seemed to push you through the line.

Big Apple Helicopter Tour

This was a fantastic experience as we soared over Manhattan and saw sights that were very familiar to us from a whole new angle. I was impressed by the company's organization in getting everyone onto the helicopters.

For 2?... Not so

The helicopter ride was great and the pilot was a pretty good guide and pretty funny, but when I signed up I expected it to be just my guest and I. There was another couple in the helicopter with us. Just wanted others to be aware of this fact. other than that, an awesome experience.

Helecopter flight

Flight was fantastic but whole experience was poorly managed. We were stood outside waiting for 2 hours, whilst people with no reservations walked in ahead of us. There was no-one to organise such a large group of people, staff were still bringing people off the streets with no reservations, whilst we had booked months ago. Very disappointed with the whole experience. This was our honeymoon and the flight was a surprise for my husband, so it a huge shame it couldnt have been managed better.

Helicopter Ride

This is a great way to see the city. It gave me a totally different perspective of New York. The views of the stadium, to central park to ellis island and the statue of liberty were all spectacular...What a feeling to see the city from up above with the sun shinning on the Hudson River. I loved it and recomend this tour to anyone visiting New York city!

Helicopter Tour

I just wanted to say thanks for booking our tour! My boyfriend proposed while on the tour it was very memorable and the pilot, staff and entire experience was great! Thanks again!

- Lauren Fritz - Baltimore, Tuesday, June 30, 2009

Awesome! - A Must See

The ride was an amazing way to see the city in a whole new way. Seeing the new and old Yankee Stadium was great as well as the Statue of Liberty. The 15-20 minutes seem short but it was def enough time! The helicopter was slow enough that we took lots of pics.

- Jess & Sal - Albany, Monday, March 30, 2009

NYC Helicopter Tour

The flight was incredible, with amazing views of both the city and NJ. Flying over new and old Yankee Stadium offers a once-in-a-lifetime perspective. Customer service could use some polishing, however. We arrived 1/2 hour before the flight, as instructed, and waited for an hour with no word from the office staff on any delays.

- Mike - New York, Wednesday, November 05, 2008

New York Helicopter Flight

Very enjoyable flight added to a wonderful holiday. Views were spectacular offering great photo opportunities. Excellent staff and minimum wait times. Highly recommended.

- DAVE ROY - WEST 30TH ST, Monday, October 13, 2008

Helicopter Flight

I have flown in a helicopter before, but was really impressed that the pilot on this occasion really went out of her way to make sure that my 11 year-old son got the most out of the experience. The views were spectacular, and certainly provide a totally different aspect on NY than from the ground. If you are going to take the time to visit NY, a helicopter ride like this really is an absolute must.

- Mr Vik Hill - Brighton, UK, Tuesday, September 30, 2008

Helicopter Ride

This was fantastic, I have never been in one before and am not good with heights but it was brilliant. We spent the weekend in NY and saw it from ground level and the on the water with a dinner cruise but this was amazing. We saw all up and down the river but from a totally different perspective. The staff were really nice and they made the visit really enjoyable. Just flying around the city is such a different way to see it all I highly recommend if you are going to do anything do this and the dinner cruise they really made our weekend.
