Manhattan Helicopters

Manhattan Helicopters is one of New York City's established helicopter tour operators, offering aerial sightseeing flights that take passengers over some of the most recognisable skylines in the world. Departing from a helipad on the Hudson River, flights pass above landmarks including the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Empire State Building, and the Brooklyn Bridge, giving a perspective on the city that is impossible to achieve from street level.

The current on-sale experience, the New York City Helicopter Tour, provides a narrated flight over Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs. Manhattan Helicopters has built a reputation among visitors seeking a distinctive way to take in the scale and density of New York, where the grid of avenues and the concentration of skyscrapers only fully reveal themselves from above. The tours operate from the West Side of Lower Manhattan, placing passengers close to the waterfront before they ascend over one of the world's most photographed urban landscapes.
