its $5 cheaper to fly over the harbour in a helicopter Per person than bridge climb and you can take as many photos as you like and also some video, pictures of what I want to remember not a picture of what some one else wants me to remember, and pay a premium for other pictures, for some one with a choice of the two there is no competition, up, up and away
I used to think helicopters would be very expensive but they are not, I have done 2 now and have so many good pictures and video to remind me of what I experienced, my girlfrind wanted to see the view from the top and said we should do the bridge climb, we looked in to it, saw how much a helicopter tour was and thought NO WAY.
no worse than the French though and the greedy prices for the Eiffel Tower.

Plus, I think that the insurance premium for them is much higher than for helicopter operators.
Personally, I think the cost is on the steep side, but no worse than the $300+ for a helicopter ride over Kaua'i.
