Professional, helpful and courteous throughout but would have preferred to have some commentary during the flight, landmarks, history,anecdotes etc. As first time visitors to NY it was very difficult to take in all we saw and I think this would have helped.

I've done all sorts of flying including hangliding and paragliding. This was one of the funnest flights I've ever had. The pilot and crew were great! I will definitely do this again.

After waiting almost an hour to take off due to there not being a headset available for my husband we were both beginning to lose patience. However, the second the helicopter began to ascend it was worth the wait! The views were spectacular and the pilot gave a brilliant, very funny commentary throughout the entire journey. There were only 3 of us in the helicopter so we all had an excellent view but I would agree with some of the other reviews on the site that say the views are limited if the helicopter is over filled, unless you book a private trip it's the chance you have to take. This was definitely the highlight of the trip for us and the best way to see NYC.
