now city tours - private tours

BostonToAnywhere

I received this tour as a gift and what a present it was! We went the last week of September just as the leaves were changing on an unseasonably 80 degree day! I have lived in Boston my whole life but it is still a unique and amazing place to see from above. As an added bonus, the doors came off and we had an unobstructed view of all Boston and Cambridge have to offer. It hardly feels like you are cruising at 120mph but you can buzz around the city and see Chinatown, South Boston, Charlestown, the North End, Beacon Hill, Harvard Square, Kenmore Square and Fenway Park in seconds! Something you see that looks cool? No problem, they can slow down, change angles and give you a closer look. Whether you have lived in Boston your whole life or are just here for a short trip, this is an experience you will remember forever!

I surprised my wife for her 45th birthday with a helicopter tour of the coast. She's still talking about it til' this day!! Our pilot, Craig LeBlanc was informative, fun, safe and an absolute stud! Thank you for making me look good and giving my wife and I a most memorable experience! Unbelievable!Raymond

Had an amazing time on now city tours. Christian was an excellent pilot and overall the experience was an amazing time. Very smooth flight on a windy day. Best view of the city you could ask for. I highly recommend Now City Tours!!

Our helicopter flight over bodton with Craig was a wonderful adventure! Despite a little anticipatory anxiety from our 6 year old grand-daughter and her grandparents, we all had a terrific time. Craig is very kind and patient. He showed us around the helicopter and put our minds at ease. That was the end of any pre-flight jitters, leaving us to enjoy the amazing views. Craig was very accommodating, happily including our requests in our itinery. A vey memorable special event for our family!

I went with my family and I can say it was one of the best experience in our life. Craig was our pilot, really knowledgeable about the city but does not talks your ears off. Now city tours deserve a 10 stars out of 5. They are great check them out you won't believe everything you will see from above that we don't realize from the ground.

This was my first time going on a helicopter tour and it was amazing. I was a little unsure at first but it was quickly apparent how well in control the pilot Christian was. The view from the air was fascinating for me and I have a whole new understanding of the boston area now! The pilot knew the area very well and did a great job of pointing out interesting things in a detailed way. I've lived in Boston for awhile and I still learned a bunch of cool things. I would definitely recommend Now City Tours to a friend and plan on taking my parents up soon. Thanks guys!

I purchased this tour as a birthday gift for my wife. We are both residents of Boston and it was great to see the layout and skyline of Boston from a different perspective.Our tour guides, Chris and Jason, were both very professional and relaxed - providing key facts and calling out points of interest throughout the tour. All of it is done in a manner that allows you to take in the views at your own pace.I highly recommend Now City Tours!

I wanted to propose to my girlfriend and was looking for a unique way of doing it. I thought of doing it at Fenway Park, a hot air balloon ride, on a boat out on Boston Harbor, etc. None of those ideas seemed unique to me so I eventually thought of doing it while flying in a helicopter and then found Now City Tours. It was absolutely memorable. The pilots were very personable and professional. Craig (who did most of the talking) was very knowledgable of the city and did a great job of talking to us throughout the tour. Once it came time to proposing the pilots gave us time to enjoy the moment.. after about a minute they turned around and my now fiancé showed them the ring and a small party broke out. They were very happy for us and immediately started congratulating us and then talking about restaurants in the area so that we may celebrate with a meal. If you're looking to see Boston from above, NOW City Tours is the ONLY way to do it!

I booked this tour for my boyfriends birthday and he had an awesome time. Even though we are both locals, it was great to see Boston from that point of view. He is a huge baseball fan, so seeing Fenway like that was his favorite part. Our guide, Jason, was knowledgable about the city, but didn't talk your ear off the whole time either, which was nice...didn't feel "touristy" at all. The weather was perfect and the flight was very smooth. We got to see the prudential center, go over the Charles, the Boston harbor, Fenway park, and a lot more. I thought we would be higher up, but you actually get very close and fly right in the city itself. Out of all the helicopter tour companies around, Now City Tours had the best price for the longest amount of time in the air. Worth the money... I will definitely recommend this to locals and especially tourists!

Hello Juli,I Couldn't be happier with how the flight turned out. Due to the technology in our aircraft, we were able to get right over the parade route. We were able to get the same views as the news helicopters. Maybe we will see you in the future for a twilight/dinner flight. Thank you again & Happy Anniversary!

My wife and I were lucky enough to take an amazing helicopter tour with Craig. His professionalism, knowledge of Boston and amazing pilot skills are second to none. What we really loved about Now City Tours (besides the flying) was the simplicity of it. We literally drove our car right up to the helicopter met Craig and got a safety briefing. A few short minutes later we were up in the air... Rock star status at its finest! Anyone in the Boston area thinking about doing a tour look no further, Now City Tours=the best!

Christian was a great tour guide! He really seemed to care and take the time to point out a lot of Boston to us. We were in Boston for Labor Day Weekend and took the private car service over, well worth it and the whole experience was spectacular. It was the right amount of this and we got to see Boston from a different viewpoint...The whole process was easy and fun. We will be back again!!!!!!!!!!!

I took my 17 year old niece on this helicopter ride for her birthday. She said it was the best present ever!! Booking online was easy. Both Christian and Jason where very friendly. It was amazing to be zipping around Boston in a helicopter going 100 miles an hour and you felt like you we're just floating through air. The views were spectacular. I've lived in Boston all my life and this was an incredible way to see the city. Tourist or resident you should really let Now City Tours give you the experience of a lifetime.

It was an amazing experience and Jason's sincere personality made my birthday that much more meaningful. I nearly had silent tears come down when we hovered over Fenway park. Jason's keen navigational ability made the experience that much more special. :)
