    11. Helicopter tour of New York City from Westchester

    Choice of 30 or 45 minutes — fly over Central Park, the Statue of Liberty and more, departing from Westchester Airport.

    Experiencing a helicopter ride over such a famous city was absolutely thrilling, and I felt completely secure throughout. Our pilot and guide were responsive to our questions, though I wished for a bit more area knowledge. We started and finished early, and while we didn't quite hit the full 45 minutes, it was nearly there. I believe the cost was quite high, making it a one-time experience for us, and I prefer to keep the price to myself. Aside from the expense, I would rate this adventure 5 stars.debbiehN6976SG
