Wow! Everything we had hoped for and more! We opted for the Grand Island flight and it was worth every penny. The pilot went out of his way to show us the sights and added his own little commentary which was informative and amusing. You must do this if you are going to New York!

Hello dwparkes, We thank you for your review. The 30-minute Helicopter Tour is indeed worth every penny. You get to see Manhattan from tip to tip and more! The view from the Hudson River is incredible! Cheers!

I bought the 30 min "grand tour" and loved every second of it. The pilot (Andrew Woods) was Irish and really helped us feel relaxed and get ready with our cameras when we hovered for the best pics of the big landmarks. The guys on the ground also really gave me the VIP treatment and the group handler Santiago made sure we were safe and well prepped and in good spirits before take off. The route takes off from a pier 6 (which is beside the Staten Island Ferry Terminal and close to Brooklyn Bridge) and swoops around the south tip of Manhatten and up its west coast before turning to come back which means you get a great view no matter which side of the chopper you sit on. Andrew clearly loves his job and the company seem to be have a family atmosphere in the office. Would defo do it again!

My first flight in a helicopter and part of my birthday present. Andrew Woods, pilot, made the experience so special (including playing ‘Happy Birthday’ for me). I was lucky to be in the front seat, so had the very best views as we soared the skies around the New York skyline. My husband had a rear window seat and also had great views. Andrew’s humour and obvious love of his job were evident. A highly recommended 30minutes flight.
