Very short flight. The flight was only over the river. The pilot did not take us over the Manhattan at all! It was only 2 rounds over the river. 5 minutes.

The day was very hot so we were off to a rough start to begin with. Getting to the site is a bit of a challenge and I am local to Manhattan. Try to figure out the fastest, cheapest way to get there without adding to the cost of your fun. When you get to the check-in be prepared to pay that additional fee that's in the fine print. I knew but forgot about this and I was slapped with another 75 fee total for 4 people. I don't understand why this isn't just included in the price to begin with. The day was very hazy so the views were not all that. And did I mention the heat. We were sweating like pigs in the helicopter and when we landed they pointed out the air vents above us, which were CLOSED. This info would've helped - it's not everyday that I'm in a helicopter to know this. I think I would have preferred the NY SKYRIDE over this. Cheaper with guaranteed spectacular views. Add to all of this the lack of enthusiasm from the staff and crew and I do not recommend this.
Reviewed by: Hope D, United States, August 2007 Note from Viator: You do have to pay an additional $15.00 per person fee upon arrival at the heliport for this helicopter tour. Unfortunately we can not include this fee in our price as it must be paid directly to the helicopter operator. We apologize for this inconvenience.
