Hi Zaleya, Thank you for your great review and so glad you had a great experience. I just wanted to address your last comment about your purchase of the video experience. You purchased the internet express version, not the actual dvd version. With the internet express version you must go to our youtube channel to view your video and also...

Helicopters swoop in like overgrown buzzing bees to start the trip. After standing around past the designated start time, a bit of fuss in reception to get on but then the smooth ride and great commentary begins. OUTSTANDING Great photo opportunity. Loved every moment

If you want to experience the amazing views of NYC then a ride in a helicopter is a must.
Great professional service and good value for money if your paying for 1 person that is. The ride was $169 (I brought my ticket direct from Virgin Holidays) but you may get a different deal.
Truly breathtaking experience and one I...

This was a 40th birthday gift and one that I will never forget. Contrary to some of the earlier reviews, we found Liberty to be prompt, infact we were 15 mins earlier than our booked slot. Safety was of paramount importance and the pre flight video was comprehensive. The whole experience was friendly and the pilot (sorry can't remember his...

Myself and my girlfriend booked the Big Apple tour for my birthday and it was amazing to see New York from a helicopter. It is expensive but definitely worth it, a memory that will never be forgotten.
There were 6 os us in the helicopter, including the pilot. It was very cramped which is kind of understandable, although we didn't...
