 Description
New York City isn’t called the “Big Apple” for nothing. This very popular 12-15 minute tour provides awe inspiring views of the Big Apple’s most iconic landmarks. As you soar above New York City down the East River you will fly right over the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges viewing the UN and Chrysler buildings before cutting across to the south end of Central Park. You will cruise past the cavernous landscape of the NYC skyline, right by the Empire State Building, Woolworth and MetLife buildings so close you can almost touch. Other sights include the USS Intrepid, The World Financial District, Governors and Ellis island, Battery Park and of course the Statue of Liberty before heading back to the heliport.
