Spectacular! - Very well organised trip. Our vehicle and guide picked us up right on time and drove us to the airport. Our guide Mr Nawa sorted out our tickets at the airport so we just had to go through security and wait for the mountain flight. This took off an hour late but delays are always expected with air travel. The flight was fantastic, the day was quite cloudy but the Himalayas were bathed in fabulous sunshine and the views were spectacular. Everyone is guaranteed a window seat and get equal opportunity to fly alongside the mountains. Mr Nawa was ready and waiting for us at the airport and the journey back to the hotel was comfortable and felt safe due to the careful driver and the fact that the vehicle had seatbelts. Highly recommend this trip, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed if you’re in Nepal. Mr Nawa also helped us put together a package for another trip while we were driving which was very helpful and processed easily via email later in the day.

Flight tour - Great tour. Highly recommended if you want to see the Everest but you can’t climb just like me. The tour started off very early so you have a whole day to enjoy other activities in Kathmandu.

Mount Everest Plane Tour – A Must-Do Experience - Mount Everest Plane Tour – A Must-Do Experience Our Mount Everest plane tour was absolutely breathtaking—an unforgettable experience that gives you a window-row seat to the highest peak in the world, all from the comfort of your seat. The views of the Himalayas, especially Everest, are nothing short of awe-inspiring and offer a once-in-a-lifetime perspective. A big thanks to our guide, Nawaraj, who made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. He was right on time for pickup, helped us through the plane check-in process, and was great with our kids (12 and 13 years old), making sure they felt comfortable and engaged throughout the journey. His calm and professional demeanor added to the enjoyment of the day. If you’re in Kathmandu, a plane or helicopter tour over Mount Everest is an absolute must. It’s the perfect way to witness the majesty of the Himalayas without the demands of trekking. Highly recommended for families and travelers of all ages!

Easy, fast, safe booking and ride to and from hotel to airport. - I booked this last minute and they reached out to me immediately to get my passport information and hotel pick up information. They booked me in at 9 PM and were here to pick me up the next morning at my hotel at 5:45 AM. The car was clean and brand new. The company was professional and helpful. Got me to the airport in plenty of time, got my ticket for me and made it very easy to just show up, take the flight and see the biggest mountain and then head right back to the hotel room. The views of Everest are not to be missed. It’s truly worth the money and time. This company makes it easy.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I had an incredible experience with the 1-hour Mount Everest flight! The communication with Welcome Nepal Treks was fast, smooth, and efficient from start to finish. They provided excellent service, keeping us updated and checking in regularly to ensure everything was going well. The hotel pick-up was punctual and hassle-free, making the whole process seamless. The flight itself offered breathtaking views of the majestic Himalayas, with clear explanations from the crew. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to witness Mount Everest up close with outstanding service and attention to detail. If you're traveling from another country, don't leave Nepal without having this tour!
