Additional Information

Soaring above Nepal’s Himalayas offers a remarkable opportunity to marvel at oak woodlands and mountain ranges. The thrill is significantly amplified, particularly when on a helicopter journey to Everest Base Camp. You don’t miss out on what trekkers experience as you get to observe these ranges from a bird’s-eye perspective. The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour rewards you with majestic views of mountain ranges like Mt. Ama Dablam, Mt. Makalu, Mt. Gaurishankar, Nuptse, Lhotse, and the iconic Mt. Everest. The peaks appear to float amidst the clouds, making it a challenge to keep track of their names. Our halt at the Kalapattar Height provides an exquisite view of Mt. Everest and other stunning Himalayan peaks. We also make a stop at the Everest View Hotel in Syngboche for breakfast.

  • A current valid passport is required on the day of travel

Worth every penny - Mr. Mukti went beyond answering my queries about the tour as this was my first Heli ride and was nervous about flying and assuming that I'd be sick and what not ( in my head). Everything went well with the weather being at its best and on top our pilot being the informative genius, who has scaled Mt. Everest (salute) and named every peaks and ranges for us. Please go ahead and grab that opportunity because it may never come back. I got to tick off my bucket list to see the Lukla Airport(world's dangerous airport) and to see the Everest ( Sagarmatha National Park) up close and pray there. Best things that happened that day: -spotless weather -witnessing Lukla airport - friendly people -falling in love with Everest -breakfast at the highest Hotel in the world(hotel Everest view) -Genius pilot -supportive staffs Reading about UNESCO world heritage sites(Sagarmatha National Park) in your Social Studies book and stepping on it, is 2 different things. Go for it.

Memorable - This was truly one of the most memorable experiences I’ve been on. At first, the cost will turn down many travelers. But, you’ll never got this chance ever again unless you plan on trekking. Worth every penny of it!

KTM to EBC + Kalapattar Helicopter Tour - Amazing half day tour! Mt Everest from Kalapattar was as expected: Awesome! The booking and pick up from the hotel to the airport, helicopter tour and until coming back to the hotel everything was good, communication, arrangements, etc. Though this time we could not visit Everest view Hotel due to bad weather but all all the way to Kalapattar was as expected. Highly recommended.

This company and manager are strongly recommended - We enjoyed the half day Helicopter tour! Even more important than this was the clear and great communication with the manager, thank you! We hiked from Lukla to Namche/Hotel Everest View and then took the Heli Tour back to Kathmandu. Thank you for having adjusted our often change of schedule and for making us feel that we were indeed in good hands, always with prompt answers and perfect support.

Amazing from start to finish - The tour was fantastic from start to finish. Firstly the booking process was so smooth. The communication was fast, efficient and clear. This really made is so much easier. Then the trip itself was fantastic. The captain was knowledgeable and considerate. We were even longer than intended as he allowed us time to soak it all in. Everest itself and the surroundings were stunning. No point booking with anyone else.
