This is the closest experience you will find to flying your own helicopter! The flight of your dreams extends the Big City tour south past Liberty Harbor to the world-famous Coney Island beach and amusement park.
You'll fly over to Lower Manhattan's Battery Park and world-renowned Wall Street and then to greet the Statue of Liberty eye-to-eye where the awe continues as you take in the aerial view from Ellis Island.
You'll also get the chance to fly over the spectacular Verrazano Bridge, the longest double-decker suspension bridge in New York connecting Staten Island and Brooklyn. The grandeur and romance of the vistas make this tour a perfect date or family adventure. You will also revel in the delight of seeing New York's harbors and beaches in their entirety!
Don't forget to bring your camera to capture these unparalleled views in your memory forever!
