    Seeing Tribeca from the air was beautiful, seeing it from that perspective was very different than going in person on foot.

    It was very few people, we were only 4 people, I thought we were going to be more. It was almost like a private tour and I loved the whole tour.

    Seeing Soho from the air was like watching a movie I saw several years ago, it brought back memories of my childhood.

    We went with my husband and my in-laws, they loved the trip and spent the whole time taking pictures of the landscape. To repeat the experience, only this time with my parents.
