Your experience
An aerial view of New York City
Set off on a thrilling 20-min aerial tour of New York City, while you sit in the comfort of a luxury helicopter. Soar above the Big Apple and get up close to the landmarks that form the city's enchanting skyline. Fly past Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, which has been a welcoming beacon to visitors to the New World for over a century! Head north to see the George Washington Bridge, one of the busiest bridges in the world. Admire the best Manhattan tourist attractions from above, without dealing with the crowds, including the Empire State Building, and the One World Trade Center.
One tour, many attractions
Soar up the Hudson as you gaze at popular icons of New York, like the famous Yankee Stadium and the busy Times Square. Cruise past New Jersey’s beautiful palisade cliffs, one of the country's earliest conservation efforts. While you're at it, you'll even get to catch a glimpse of Columbia University and the Chrysler Building, once the tallest building in the world. You will then make your way back to the heliport, having experienced New York in a way that most people never get to! If you want to see the maximum that NYC has to offer, upgrade your tickets to a 30-min helicopter tour.
