Gift for my wife's 50th birthday. Despite the bad weather (cloudy and rain) it was an unforgettable experience! The views were spectacular, the flight was longer than expected and the nice and funny pilot made it complete.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour!! Seeing New York from the sky was amazing and the pilot was great as well. He made everybody on the trip feel completely comfortable. I would do this trip 4 more times if I could if your looking to do something fun and exciting the NYC helicopter tour is what you need to do!! I would rate it an 8/10 only because it was about a 20 minute ride which went by fast. Nonetheless it was an awesome experience and I can’t wait to do it again.

The helicopter ride was fine, but we weren’t able to get pictures. The team there took pictures for us to get later for a fee and our pictures didn’t show up on the selection. We would have taken pictures ourselves instead of them not giving us time to take pictures under the pretext that they took professional pictures and we didn’t get any pictures.
