Overview

Manhattan conjures images of opulent buildings, black cabs, and a distinctively world-class mentality. Witness all of this and more as a skilled pilot takes you on a 15 or 20-minute helicopter tour over NYC. Fly over famous sites including the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Madison Square Garden.
Swing down over lower Manhattan after taking off from the Downtown Heliport to see the area’s streets and skyline. Swoop above Battery Park to catch a glimpse of Wall Street’s maze of streets.
Then take a boat over to Governor’s Island, which currently holds summer concerts and public art. Governor’s Island was originally solely accessible to the city’s dignitaries. Then, as you pass over Ellis Island, you will be able to view Lady Liberty off in the distance.
To get a fresh perspective of the Statue of Liberty, approach her right up to the eye.
Enjoy it all before continuing up the Hudson, through Chelsea’s piers and Broadway’s lights. Fly above Ground Zero on your way back to the pier to see the amazing work being done there as well as the Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, and other nearby landmarks.
Continue on through the Intrepid Air and Space Museum and Madison Square Garden. As your flight does a U-turn to head back to the heliport, you can see Central Park.
