Overview

Experience New York City at its most breathtaking moments - from the sky at sunset. As the sun dips below the horizon, the city glows in a golden light, reflecting off the Hudson River and simmering glass towers of Manhattan.

Your helicopter lifts off for an unforgettable journey over the city’s most famous landmarks - from the Statue of Liberty and the One World Trade Center to the Empire State Building, Central Park, and the Chrysler Building. You’ll take in both the West Side skyline along the Hudson and the East Side views overlooking the United Nations, the East River bridges, and the iconic cityscape of Midtown and Lower Manhattan.

As day turns to night, the lights of New York begin to sparkle beneath you, transforming the skyline into a sea of color and brilliance. It’s a breathtaking perspective — romantic, peaceful, and utterly mesmerizing.
