An Adventure - Wonderful experience! From the pick up, check in, pilot, take off & landing. Being a pilot with a commercial airline I have to say the helicopter ride and company was on point.. I would definitely refer this company to another.

You get what you pay for - Beautiful experience. But I was offered an upgrade for 35 dollars. I paid for the upgrade to sit with the pilot and did not receive said upgrade.

Would have been 5 stars but the end killed it. - The trip was good and it was pretty straight forward of a process, however the end was an issue. To start off it’s my wife’s birthday and I booked the trip , I paid my gas and heliport fee in cash , and upon getting off the helicopter we immediately had an employee come up and say “you did not pay the heliport fee” to my wife. I tell her I did and explained it was in cash and even pointed out the guy who I gave the $ to who confirmed it. Then immediately after another employee comes up and goes “are you Alexandra” to again ask about the money but we just walked into the van. Then once in the van they again ask in Spanish (which my wife and I are fluent in) over their intercom if we had paid and if they got the money… all I can say is that was unprofessional. Had they asked me “did you give the $ for the heliport fee” opposed to just coming up and telling my wife “you guys didn’t pay it” I wouldn’t be as annoyed with the situation. The pilot was cool and it was a fun experience, so other than the end it was a great experience.

Most paid rate at the moment - After paying an amount, on time and charged another 50 dollars, and also only gets to know about the fines after paying the tickets ... I recommend, more does not create high expectation

They ruined our last day in NYC. - The WORST experience ever! Not professional and rude staff. A real SCAM. Dont ever book with this company, better book 100$ more but you get what you paid for. They ruined our last day in NYC. I cannot believe we didnt read the reviews before booking this tour.
