Journey to Everest Base Camp Heli Tour

Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is an exciting helicopter tour to the top of the Himalayas in a single day. It's ideal for any visitor who is planning to explore Mount Everest and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding mountains without necessarily trekking up there yourself. 

The Everest Helicopter Trip begins in the early morning hours from outside the hotel entrance, i.e., under the roof of the Kathmandu hotel. At the airport, you will drive, and then you will board a helicopter for an incredible flight over the Everest base camp. 

Thereafter, on a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, one can watch green valleys, small settlements, and even high mountains all at a time. Lukla is famous as an outpost in the hills and the gateway to trekking into the Everest region. 

The helicopter stops here briefly for refueling. It's a flight from the first moments along the untamed vales, glaciers, and ridges, eventually to Kala Patthar, whose vantage point could be argued as the most visually amazing due to the clearest view of Mount Everest. 

This is the peak of the experience of the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour, where you step up to capture a beautiful photo of the Earth's highest mountain. 

After a brief stay at Kala Patthar, the helicopter takes off to Syangboche for breakfast at the Hotel Everest View, the last hotel at the highest altitude in the world. Its peaceful atmosphere and the breathtaking views of the mountain create an enchanting atmosphere. 

By keeping close to the lodge in the morning, it is possible to find a place to sit and watch the stunning views of Everest, Ama Dablam, and other masterpieces of the mountains. 

At last, the helicopter takes off and refuels, and then flies to Lukla and finally to Kathmandu. The entire tour ends within a couple of hours, so it is a good option for those with limited time. 

This Everest helicopter tour is a mix of adrenaline rush with stunning scenery, and an amazing adventure in the Himalayas. It's ideal for the adventurer who likes to be in the outdoors or anybody who thinks about going to Everest but can't get out the door on a trek.
