3rd US helicopter flight - others Grand Canyon and San Francisco - this was worst - delayed, crammed and a couple split to fill flight. Least space of all craft. I flew with son and partner - both prof photographers - had reasonable views but little useful commentary from pilot - keeping craft a little steadier would have also helped. Half-assed comments about dropping in on Yankee stadium after rapid banking and turning not really appreciated. Time also about five minutes short from advertised.
As in many other aspects of life, you make the most of what you have. My son's partner had never been in a helicopter before and she thought it an excellent experience. Son flew facing rear and appreciated my warning him of specific sites coming up - e.g. Statue, the bridges, Cent Park - and he took some pretty good photos I hear. Fairly cramped for space in rear seat - three of us - felt sorry for mid seat passenger who had to lean forw to see much. Fairly happy with my pix.
Overall, if there are bigger helicopters - there are - I saw them - then I would fly with them instead. As an experience this offered reasonable views on an excellent day for flying in later December - something to definitely do - just not with their vendor.

Very poor. The weather was bad, but they was still intent of doing the trip evan though low cloud and rain you could not see anything. Be prepaired.

My goodness!!! What to say? The whole experience was wonderful - from booking to check-in, to safety explanations, to the flight, through to the photo, it was all excellent. I have been on other helicopter tours, and this was one of the best. Spend the extra money, and take this tour in New York, you will not regret it.
