A must do, amazing experience! - The customer service was great. Our group leader Q was personable, engaging, funny…quite the personality. My teenager said she forgot to be nervous because we were so preoccupied talking to him & the other passengers in our group whom we did not know. We had been to NY many times for shows and shopping. This time we wanted to do something really different and daring (at least for us). It was absolutely amazing to see everything from the air. I even enjoyed listening to air traffic control in our headphones.

Paid for platinum received the silver - Well, we had spent 6 great days in NYC, including NYE, and this was our finale. We arrived 1 hour before our flight time to make sure we were present and didn't incur any penalty charges. In doing so, we spent quite a while sitting next to the reception desk. Quite a few customers were getting charged for late arrival, even though they flew late because of backlogs. Also, most of the flights were getting cut short, saying the aircraft needed fuel, but this was to catch up on the backlog, in my opinion. Our flight time was 11am but we didn't fly until 11.37. We paid for the grand tour and returned at 11.58, which did not fly the Grand tour route, covering the Brooklyn Bridge. So, in effect, we paid for a grand tour but received the Central Park Tour. Next time, I will book earlier and use a more reputable company that uses newer aircraft and gives you the Tour that you paid for. This is an honest review of the service provided and not one that requested a refund. Please be aware when booking!!! You MAY be disappointed!!!!

Sad disappointed - I don’t like to leave negative review. Though the staff were very friendly. We didn’t get the views promised. We were in the other side of the helicopter and were not able to see the views. Didn’t even show us the crystler building as. Promised in the guide. Just rode by on the way back. Without any guide tour. Sad and disappointed after the money paid.

NOT WORTH THE $800. - The windows were extremely dirty which made viewing the sites difficult. Additionally, the quality of the pilot’s navigation was inaudible. We missed most of the landmarks. We booked a 5:00 tour so the sun would be lower in the sky yet we headed into a helicopter by 4:15. The last insult was offering pictures for us to purchase for $50+.

Dishonest - They canceled our tour after having kept us attending on the pretext that it was too foggy while it was almost sunny
