Liberty Helicopter Tour

One of the most awesome NYC experiences has to be the helicopter tour of the city!!!!!!!  We can not get enough of the views of this amazing city whether it be of the skyline or on top of the Empire State Building or Top of the Rock... every angle of this city is simply amazing!!!!!!  But none can compare to taking a helicopter over the city!!!!!!!

We used Liberty Helicopter and our tour was fantastic.  Everyone we encountered were all so nice and helpful and made it a great experience. I highly recommend them!!!!  We booked our tour in advance and planned it early on during our trip, just incase the weather didn't cooperate the day of our tour.  That way we had time to reschedule it.  But it ended up being a gorgeous day!!!!

The tour was probably the one thing we looked forward to the most this trip!  When we arrived at the heliport I could hardly stand still I was so excited!!!!  We watched a brief safety video and then we were off!!!!!  Walking out on the helipad with the choppers coming and going was awesome!!!!  I wanted soooooo badly to sit in the passenger seat and that's right where they put me!  I was thrilled!!!!!!

We had headsets to wear during the tour so we could hear the pilot point out landmarks around the city.  Upon take off we flew along the Hudson River up to the Bronx where we circled Yankees Stadium before heading back downtown.  I was in awe then entire trip!  It was gorgeous!!!!  I just love all the tall buildings and the architecture of the city.   And I think the thing that always catches me by surprise no matter how many times I see it is the size of Central Park!!!!!!!!  It's no wonder that after many visits we still have not seen probably half of the park! It seemed my eyes just could not take in everything I was seeing - it's so hard to describe.  The awesome thing about this tour was that we could take pics and videos.  So here are a couple of my favorites!  This tour is definitely something I will never, ever forget!
