Best time to go on a helicopter tour of NYC: Ideally, the best time to take a helicopter ride over New York is either in Spring (March to May) or Fall (September to November). These seasons have the best visibility with limited winds and clouds. However, winter can also be a magical experience with snow-laden rooftops and holiday lights all over the city. You might even spot the iconic Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree!
