Their insights and anecdotes pepper the experience, turning every flight into a personalized adventure. With every turn, you'll witness history and nature come together in a symphony of fall colors.

The 30-minute tour is a whirlwind adventure that showcases Hudson Valley's finest. Glide over the majestic Castle-on-Hudson, catch a glimpse of the illustrious Rockefeller Estate (Kykuit), and be charmed by the Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse. Your flight takes you over the impressive Gov. Mario M. Cuomo Bridge, with pit stops at the Indian Point Energy Center, the scenic Harriman State Park, the regal Bear Mountain, and the legendary US Military Academy at West Point. Don't blink, or you might miss a nod to the infamous Sing Sing Prison.

Opt for the extended 45-minute tour, and you'll uncover even more treasures. Behold the majestic Dick's Castle and Bannerman Castle, then journey south of the Gov. Mario M. Cuomo Bridge to discover Lyndhurst Mansion and The Palisades.

This is an experience that you absolutely must have! The pilot is a true professional, and I consider them to be the Circle Line of helicopter tours, which is a high compliment. The experience began incredibly well. We checked in and relaxed in a comfortable lounge at the Million Air terminal. The pilot introduced himself, and shortly after, we were on our way to the helicopter. After snapping a few photos, we boarded and took off for a beautiful, comfortable, and informative flight. It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Witnessing Manhattan from 1,350 feet in the air was nothing short of amazing.

This tour was an absolute marvel, from start to finish. I surprised my sister with the private 45-minute Fall Foliage tour for her birthday, and it was a delight. She sat up front, while I settled in the back. With the leaves in their full autumn glory, we soared over fascinating historic sites, and our pilot shared intriguing facts about each one. You could tell he has a genuine passion for his job. He served as an excellent tour guide, making the experience fun, safe, and relaxing. I would definitely do it again, but next time, I'll choose the front seat. While I managed to capture some incredible photos from the side window, I'm eager to experience the front seat view.

Absolutely amazing! Booking was quick and hassle-free. Although the aircraft was smaller than expected, it didn't matter once we were in the air. Our overall experience was fantastic, and I would definitely do it again. The views were breathtaking, and we captured unbelievable pictures that will be cherished for years. Getting there was quite convenient too. We took a 45-minute train ride from Grand Central and a short Uber to the location. Even though we're not fond of venturing far from the city, this ride was unquestionably worth it. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate—just book it!
