Private New York City Helicopter Tour for Couples from Westchester

About this activity

Your private Robinson R44 helicopter will whisk you from Westchester County Airport to Manhattan and back at sunset, day or night. Dazzle your loved one with unforgettable aerial views of the iconic Manhattan Skyline from above while cozying up to one another.

Helicopters take off from Westchester County Airport and reach NYC airspace within minutes. Our skilled pilots will take you on a 30-minute tour, showcasing bird's-eye views of Midtown Manhattan, Central Park, Empire State Building, Harlem, Yankee Stadium, and the George Washington Bridge. Please note: the 30-minute tour does not cover the Lower Manhattan/Statue of Liberty area.

For a more extended tour, the 45-minute ride includes all the sights mentioned above, plus a visit to the Freedom Tower, Battery Park, Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

If you choose the transfer option, we can provide roundtrip car service between Manhattan and Westchester County Airport for your convenience.
