The helicopter tour of Manhattan was an amazing memory for us. The pilot was a nice person and his commentary was legit. We liked him very much. The view from the sky was spectacular. We visited all the beautiful places in New York City. Thanks for a great time! If you’re looking for a memorable thing to do in NYC as well as a great tour of New York City- check them out!

Super recommended for those who are looking to find a good helicopter tour of NYC. My cousin and I went there to bond and we had a nice experience.. We hope that more tourists will try their helicopter service because this was one of the best things to do in NYC by far!

If you want to learn more aboutNYC, check out Charm Aviation. I am a student and my project is to know more about what's in New York City. My uncle's business partner told me to book with Charm and see the view of NYC from the sky. It was amazing, relaxing, and knowledgeable. I can now write so much since the pilot told me a lot about the Empire State Building.

My wife and I took “The Manhattan” helicopter tour. From start to end, this was a very professionally run company. I am a professional helicopter instructor and examiner for the Australian regulator so I’m very familiar with the aircraft flown, business model and pilot capabilities. It was a pleasure to take the tour, I felt very comfortable with the pilots, ground crews and the operation in general. I encourage anyone considering a helicopter tour to book with Charm Aviation (Liberty).
Scott S.
My partner and I booked a helicopter tour with Charm Aviation for a Friday date night. Since the weather was not great, Charm rescheduled our booking for Saturday without any hassle. We were looking for something new and romantic to do in NYC and this definitely exceeded expectations. The staff was friendly and the pilot was great as he got us as close as he could to different sites so we could take great photos.This helicopter experience was great overall and I would recommend it to anyone as the views are amazing.
Luci B.
Had an amazing time. It was brilliant to be told the history behind New York City while flying high above it. There was a bit of a delay but we were kept updated and were offered drinks. Everyone at Charm Aviation was happy and helpful. We felt safe and cared for the entire time we were on the helicopter tour, and would definitely recommend this NYC helicopter tour!
