Experience Highlights

Can you imagine flying over New York's iconic skyscrapers in a private helicopter? With this exclusive tour, you can enjoy panoramic views of the Big Apple with your partner or in a small group of up to five people. For approximately 30 minutes, an experienced pilot will guide you and narrate in English everything you see at your feet, making your flight an unforgettable experience.

This aerial tour will take you over Manhattan's most iconic landmarks, including Central Park, the Empire State Building, Wall Street and the majestic Statue of Liberty. Plus, you can choose from three types of aircraft and levels of luxury to customise your adventure to suit your preferences.

In general (although this can change and should be confirmed on the voucher you will receive when you book), weekday flights depart from TSS Heliport and terminate at West 30th Street Heliport. On weekends, flights depart from West 30th Street Heliport (Air Pegasus) and terminate at Wall Street Heliport (Saker Aviation). If in doubt, it is best to contact the helicopter company in advance.

To make the moment even more special, we'll celebrate in flight with a complimentary glass of champagne. It's the perfect way to round off a VIP experience that will make you feel like you're in a movie. If you're travelling as a family, children under the age of 2 travel for free, but must travel on their parents' lap.

  • Choose the most romantic option with a couple's flight in a private helicopter just for the two of you (Helicopter R44).
  • Share with friends and/or family a ride in a helicopter with capacity for up to 5 passengers (Helicopter AS350/H125).
  • Treat yourself to a flight in an ultra-luxury, state-of-the-art, twin turbine engine helicopter, also for up to 5 passengers (AS355).
  • Enjoy the narration of an experienced pilot: He will tell you fascinating details about everything you see from the air.
  • Fly over iconic New York landmarks: Admire the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and other landmarks.
  • Celebrate with a complimentary glass of champagne: Toast to this unique adventure as you gaze out over the city's breathtaking skyline.

Step by Step

Flying over the skies above New York in a private helicopter will take your trip to the Big Apple to the highest level. You'll get a bird's eye view of iconic landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building and the Brooklyn Bridge. An experienced pilot will narrate what you're seeing from your comfortable seat on a private flight lasting around 30 minutes.

You have several options to choose from on this flight. You can opt for a couple's ride in a private helicopter for just the two of you. You can also choose the option of taking a ride in a larger helicopter for up to 5 passengers, always on a private flight for you and your companions. The last option is also for up to 5 passengers, but this time in an ultra-luxury, state-of-the-art, twin turbine engine helicopter.

Whichever you choose, flying over the Big Apple will always be an unforgettable memory of your trip. You will see iconic buildings such as the Empire State Building, One World Trade Center and Madison Square Garden from above. The Statue of Liberty will be waiting for you with the torch raised for you to enjoy it from a different perspective. The Brooklyn and George Washington Bridges can be another stop on your tour.

To top off this exclusive experience, the staff will offer you a complimentary glass of champagne to enjoy as you fly over New York. What more could you ask for?

    The price is equivalent to the quality. At first I thought it was expensive, but I took it on the recommendation of work colleagues, I did it because I wanted to make a good impression on my in-laws who were coming from Spain to visit us. The 4 of us went and when we arrived they gave us the champagne and we flew off, as we were flying over the city I realised that every penny spent had been worth it. I took as many pictures as I could and when I finished I saw how my in-laws started to look at me with acceptance. I recommend it to everyone who has the chance to take this tour.

    If you come to the city and you have the opportunity to live this experience, don't hesitate. You will see amazing things and you will want to do it again. This tour gives you the opportunity to feel like one of the city's social elite for 30 minutes. It's amazing.

    A few days ago I moved from my hometown to New York for work as I had been promoted. As I had just arrived, I thought that flying over the city would be a way of adjusting to it so I looked for a tour and told my boyfriend to come along and when we arrived we felt like we were in another reality. The champagne, the helicopter and the views, these three things together made for an out of this world experience. We were fascinated that the pilot acted as a guide, we were glued to the window watching the landscape of the city, we looked like children. 10/10.

    It was a unique experience that you have to do if you come to New York, either for a visit or for work. It is amazing how wonderful it is to fly over the city in a helicopter, the views you can have of the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty are beautiful. Experience 10/10
