This was a fantastic first-time experience! Everything was well organized, the pilot was very informative, and it helped that it was a lovely clear day. We felt totally safe; you get a talk, and despite the noise from the helicopter, we thought it was a calm and smooth ride. It was a good value for money; we were up approximately twenty two minutes and saw all all of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Islands. We would thoroughly recommend this trip to anyone. If you have any hesitations, put them aside and book this trip!
