Great experience riding this helicopter. What a way to celebrate my 30th birthday than to be surprised by the girlfriend and taking this trip with her for about 20 minutes in the air. Ellis Island. Statue of Liberty. All of Manhattan. Would do it again. Also buy one of those iPhone air fans they sell inside the souvenirs. Those little air fans are literally the best invention ever and I will be back to purchase more.

Well worth the price. It'll show you views you'll never forget. Yes, take a walk around Central Park, see Times Square, take a visit to Ground Zero, take the boat to the Statue of Liberty. But there is no substitute for a helicopter flight.
