Your experience

Board a luxury helicopter at the Downtown Manhattan Heliport and let it take you on a spectacular 20-minute aerial journey through the skies of NYC. Your New York helicopter ride will fly you past the Governor’s Island, the beautiful Ellis Island and the majestic Statue of Liberty. Lady Liberty has been a welcoming beacon and symbol of hope to city visitors for over a century.

Cover the entire length of Manhattan until you catch sight of the grand George Washington Bridge. Once you have reached it, the helicopter will bring you back, and during this time you will get closer looks at some of the city’s most popular areas. Admire the brilliant architecture of the Trinity Church and the United Palace Cathedral, as well as the arena capable of accommodating about 50,000 energetic fans, Yankee Stadium!

You will enjoy close views of the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and Times Square. These are all important attractions that practically represent the city itself. Also, get an intimate look at the USS Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum, and take in the organised chaos of the Chelsea Piers. The helicopter will fly you past the West Village and Tribeca, after which you will inspect Ground Zero and see the 9/11 memorial, which remembers the incident that scarred the whole world. Then, your New York Helicopter Ride will bring you back to the heliport. By then, you will have experienced New York in ways only a handful of people ever get to.
