I’m still totally overwhelmed with my whole experience I had with heliNY on 11/05/2018. Definitely the BEST helicopter tour company, HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Dreams do come true and heliNY certainly made this happen for me. One wish I’ve had, is that I’ve always wanted to take a flight in a helicopter, in New York to take in the stunning sights of New York from the air. This amazing company HeliNY offer tours that include various sights and flying times. Their leaflets are exciting to read and gave great info of what they offer. I looked down their selections and I knew as soon as I saw their Deluxe Tour included the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, undoubtedly this was the tour my heart was wishing to do. I booked on it a good few days in advance then longed for the day and time to come. On the day after the safety briefing, it was time to let HeliNY begin to unfold my dreams. Wowwwww boys you really did unfold my dreams so beautifully and you hit the heights for me! The exciting feeling I felt as we lifted up from the ‘H’ then turned flying higher and higher to begin this Deluxe Tour was out of this world. The pilot was brilliant and superb also very informative along with clearly pointing out things in enough time so I knew exactly where to look below. Flying over the Verrazano Narrows Bridge was TOTALLY AWESOME. I’ve sailed under it many times and now I’ve flown over it, is unbelievable; how my heart was so excited. I felt an extremely lucky girl as I was privileged to take my flight next to the pilot, something that was far out of my wildest dream, and yet there I was sat next to him flying in the helicopter not just fulfilling my dream in every way but it was being taken far and beyond anything I could have ever wished for. Thank you heaps and heaps HeliNY team you were ALL AMAZING. I’ll remember my experience for EVER. A quick note for readers: Something I would like to add, I’m a disabled lady and NEVER once did my pilot or any HeliNY team make it a problem I am so grateful to you all. THANK YOU so VERY, VERY much for making my whole experience TOTALLY AWESOME.

If you set aside the price of this, there is no better way to see New York. The pilot gave us interesting information through the whole trip.
