Itinerary
Soar above the Himalayas and experience Mount Everest like never before with the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour featuring an exclusive Kalapathar landing. Ideal for young adults and seasoned adventurers looking for a luxurious shortcut, this tour offers a remarkable way to witness the world's highest peaks—without the challenging trek. The adventure begins with a hotel pickup in Kathmandu, whisking you to the airport for your helicopter journey. Enjoy window seats for unobstructed views as the chopper glides over snow-capped giants glistening beneath clear skies. Your first stop is Lukla for refreshments and your inaugural glimpse of Everest, followed by a thrilling flight above the iconic Khumbu Valley.
The highlight awaits as the helicopter lands at either Everest Base Camp or Kala Patthar, granting you panoramic vistas of Mount Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Shishapangma, and Cho Oyu. Marvel at the dramatic Khumbu Icefall and sprawling glaciers from a vantage point trekkers only dream of. The return journey features a visit to Tengboche village, home to the region’s largest and oldest monastery, where you can explore centuries-old manuscripts, statues, and artwork nestled in serene Himalayan surroundings.
Back in Kathmandu, you'll be driven to your hotel, having completed a trip that blends awe-inspiring sightseeing with supreme comfort. Unique to this tour package is the rare opportunity to land near Everest and savor a 360-degree mountain panorama in just a few hours—perfect for those short on time or seeking a less physically demanding adventure. Please note, government permits for Everest Base Camp are not included. If you crave the grandeur of Everest minus the multi-day hike, this helicopter tour is your ticket to an unforgettable Himalayan encounter.

Wonderful Everest Base Camp Helicopter Ride
One of the best travel agency I had engaged. They customised the trip according to my needs and Ramesh, my private guide even escorted me to Singapore Airlines office to deal with an emergency. Gokul, owner of the agency also WA me to ensure that I have all I need before I even land in Nepal. Will definitely come back with my family and try out their Tibet and Bhutan tours.
