THAT was Impressive - The Manhattan Helicopter Tour of New York was truly an unforgettable experience! The views were absolutely breathtaking – seeing the iconic skyline, landmarks, and the city from above was nothing short of magical.
The staff were incredibly friendly and professional, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Their attention to detail and focus on safety made me feel completely at ease throughout the tour.
This is a must-do for anyone visiting or even for locals wanting a unique perspective of the city. Highly recommend it for creating amazing memories!

Good but very expensive - Right away you need to realise that this is a VERY expensive experience and last just 9 minutes. Staff were a bit unorganised and no safety briefing is provided. The helicopter simply does a quick circuit around taking in great views of the city. It was quite disappointing that the helicopter was kept quite far from places compared to other helicopters who were flying much closer. For example, the Statue of Liberty. Every other tour flew a lot closer.
It was still an absolute thrill to be in a helicopter and I would do it again if I had the money although I would likely choose a different tour in the hope of getting closer and longer in the air.
Expect to be waiting around for up to an hour before you get your flight. There is a maximum of 6 people on each flight so you will end up sharing if there are not 6 of you. My wife was very lucky and got in the front seat beside the pilot. I was quite envious as it was my birthday but staff didn't care.

Too expensive and not worth the money - It was expensive, I paid £849 for. 4 person to fly in helicopter so my understanding was we were flying on her own as a family of 4, there was another couple joined us, I keep shouting out for my son’s birthday announcement but my head phone wasn’t working. Plus they charged us £40 per person helicopter, which we paid 120 dollars extra. This is 15 mins only. Please be aware of charges before you book this ride.

They cancel on you - They canceled on us a day before, no explanation just said there where inconsistencies in the reserve.
They did give us back our money, but still we could book anything else with such a short window.

Untrustworthy! - Untrustworthy!!!!
We booked a helicopter tour over NYC as the absolute highlight of our New York City trip with Charm Aviation. Charm Aviation confirmed the sightseeing flight and received the money. On the evening before the sightseeing flight we were informed by phone that Charm Aviation cannot perform the sightseeing flight! The holiday dream for the whole family is broken!
Untrustworthy!!!!
Warning! Do not book with this company!!!
