I surprised my husband for his birthday with a tour over the holiday week and it was truly the BEST birthday surprise. We have been New York City residents for 12 years and it was such a unique perspective from which to see our city! In addition, everyone was highly professional. We loved our pilot who offered fun and interesting information she shared about the landmarks we saw. We even learned a few things! A big THANK YOU to the entire HeliNY team for helping make our experience one we will never forget.

I have wanted to experience NYC by air for the longest time and as a treat to myself, I decided to include a helicopter ride during my last visit to the city. It was incredible! I arrived early (a bit too keen) but the staff were kind enough to let me go on an earlier ride. There was a clear safety briefing, everything was very organised and they even charged my phone up a little bit so I wouldn't run out of battery whilst up in the air. The ride lasted for 20 minutes and our pilot was phenomenal. She provided commentary on the important sights we passed but at the same time allowed us to marvel in the sights we saw. I would 100% recommend HeliNY - I'm even considering booking one of their evening flights during my next visit to NYC.

Our helicopter ride was out of this world. It had to get prosponed due to weather so they gave us an additional 10 minute flight time on the day we were rebooked. It was busy when we arrived but we were immediately sat down and made a fuss off like everyone else in there. The service was great and the actual flight itself was informative and breathtaking. I would recommend anyone coming to nyc that this is a must.
