OVERVIEW:

Our Everest Helicopter Tour is a golden opportunity to witness the breathtaking panoramas of the Everest region, and to discover the allure of the world’s tallest peak- Mt. Everest (8848m). The region is the homeland of several more of the tallest mountains in the world. In addition to the snow-coveredHimalayas, the area contains glaciers, frozen lakes, rocky landscapes, high Sherpa settlements and alpine flora and fauna. Our Everest Helicopter Tour offers such stunning alpine panoramas in a short time, with views that one will nothave while trekking. It is a single day itinerary, about 1-2 in the Khumbu region, with the destinations of Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar.

The Everest Helicopter Tour begins from the Kathmandu domestic airport.  As we fly towards the northeast, the views of green forests, terraced hillside settlements and river gorges catch our eyes. We fly to Lukla (2860m) for fuel and continue further. During the tour, we willsee the amazing Ama Dablam, Pumori, Makalu and Cho Oyu peaks.  From here, we will fly to Everest Base Campand to Kalapatthar. Both provide incredible views and photographing opportunities.  In fact, they are the best viewpoints of Mt. Everest.  If possible, we will land at either of these points to take some photos and feel the fresh air.  Afterwards, we return to Kathmandu.

All the seasons are suitable for the Everest Helicopter tour, but Spring and Autumn are the best seasons. As the helicopter flies over the Everest region trekking trails, you can see the Everest trekkers marching on their destinations. In the spring, all the forests bloom as rhododendron and other seasonal flowers. The weather is very much clear in these seasons so the views of the Himalayas are stunning. Ascent Holidays arranges the flight with complete management. Please, feel free to contact us for the detailed information.
