    Horrible. Is not a private ride. You get squished together with strangers. 15 min ride totaling $900 for that ia absolute bs. Highly NOT recommended.

  • Breathtaking magical views with great commentary!

    This experience was one of the most if not the most memorable part of our trip to New York. Blessed with great weather, our pilot gave us a brief historical overview of the main attractions and parts of Manhattan and New Jersey as we soared over the big apple. The tour lasts just under 15 minutes but is well worth it! The views and experience is second to none and we could not recommend it highly enough! I only wished it could have lasted longer!

  • Waste of money

    Fun view of the city you won’t get anywhere else. The 15 minute flight is enough to see the main attractions from the air. Recommend.
