Wasn’t what was expected. Trip was only 12 min; pilot was not great as he didn’t interact much.we also picked up radio fees from other helicopters in the area. Wouldn’t recommend

Did this trip on my 50th birthday and was so memorable. My 4th time on an nyc helicopter and my sons first…it blew his mind. I’ve used liberty in the past but this was the best trip by far and cannot recommend these guys enough. Our pilot was David and we felt super safe and he was really informative. We flew around Manhattan from top to bottom and over the Statue of Liberty. Yes it’s a few quid but this really is a once in a lifetime experience. Truly stunning. Thanks Guys.

The helicopter ride and Pilot was wonderful. A fabulous way to see NYC yet I felt bad for the noise and air pollution as well. I would have appreciated ALL the costs added in right at the beginning when comparing sites for transparency. For two people a facility fee was added of 70$ and a fuel charge of 10$. Thus the original price you are shown is not accurate. I booked on line myself yet I was also charged a booking fee of 28.68$?? Not sure why. I appreciated having a picture taken by staff while standing by the helicopter (it literally takes two seconds to do so)- but charging 45$ for it is super costly. The view and seeing all the sites was amazing. Just know what you are paying upfront!
