This is not a review for the helicopter ride. This is a frustrated parent having to live in lower Manhattan in the flight path of these noisy polluting helicopters flying ALL DAY and NIGHT past our windows, and right over the waterside parks where our kids play and go to school. The whole city has tried to regulate these tours to no avail due to the air-space being controlled by the FAA. If you are a tourist reading this, please please do read about the negative impact your few minutes of fun are having on literally millions of people who cannot get a moment's peace in their own homes. It is extremely distressing. And 98% of helicopter flights are tourist flights. I humbly beseech you all...please read up and please please avoid taking a helicopter tour. There are so many ways to enjoy our great city, without destroying the peace of mind of the residents and their children. My thanks.

Please put the same emphasis on the horse and carriage ride.

It was great! The entire experience was efficient and professional. The flight was quick yet comprehensive in seeing both midtown and downtown Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. The pilot was very friendly and pointed out both the major and other interesting landmarks. She was extremely personable. I would highly recommend this tour.

My headphones never worked so I did not hear any of the pilots guided tour remarks/comments. Space was too cramped for 4 5 people behind the pilot

All of our headset work, probably the volume was turned down, and our helicopter seats 6 passengers comfortably.
