Itinerary

Short on time but determined to reach Everest Base Camp? This 9-day Everest Base Camp Trek with Chopper Return is designed for adventure-seekers who want the full high-altitude trekking experience—with a time-saving twist. The journey begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, launching you into the heart of the Himalayas.

Trek past the Dudh Kosi River, through vibrant Sherpa villages, and ancient monasteries as you acclimatize in Namche Bazaar. Continue through Tengboche, Pangboche, and Dingboche, eventually reaching Gorakshep—the last settlement before the base camp. Stand in awe at Everest Base Camp and take in panoramic views from Kala Patthar before an exhilarating helicopter ride whisks you back to Lukla, followed by a return flight to Kathmandu.

Especially appealing to young adults and experienced trekkers keen to maximize adventure while minimizing time, this tour package’s unique selling point is the helicopter return, allowing for a high-altitude challenge without the lengthy descent. For those who crave the world’s most iconic trek in record time, this trip is the answer.
