Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour

Early morning a chartered helicopter departs from Kathmandu and soars toward east of Nepal. We fly over hundreds of hills & river and land at Lukla, gateway to Everest. After refueling, the flight starts to Everest Base Camp or Kalapatthar. The flight goes over various Sherpa villages Tengboche, Dingboche, Gorakshep and Khumbu glacier – the world’s highest glacier. At the base camp or Kalapatthar, you will have short landing for 5 minutes due to altitude threat. You enjoy the Everest thrill and indulge in capturing its regal beauty. We fly back to Syangboche where we stop for 20 minutes for tea/coffee break or breakfast in Everest View Hotel. Mt Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam line-up just in front of you. Savoring cuisine with an exotic mountain view is the best life time experience. We fly back to Lukla for refueling and fly back to Kathmandu. If the weather is not suitable for Everest viewing you will be either offered a refund or the option to fly again.
