Detailed Itinerary
The journey, in full
Your adventure begins when you arrive at the Downtown Manhattan Heliport at 6 East River Piers for your extravagant and exhilarating sightseeing excursion. As you lift off, you’ll head south, where you’ll glide past the longest suspension bridge in the US - the Verrazano Bridge – which connects Brooklyn and Staten Island. At this point, you get a glimpse of Coney Island before making a U-turn to witness the magnificent views of Lady Liberty and the Manhattan skyline across the New York Harbor. Next up are magnificent architectural masterpieces like the Chrysler Building and the Empire State Building, and the most spectacular view of Midtown Manhattan you could ask for! As you soar up to the northernmost tip of the borough, you’ll see the George Washington Bridge that links Manhattan and New Jersey. Upon turning south, you’ll take in the grandeur of all five boroughs while heading down the Hudson River, passing by iconic landmarks such as Yankee Stadium, Central Park, the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, and One World Trade Center, before landing back at the heliport with photos and memories to last a lifetime!
