Tour Description

Everest base camp helicopter tour
Everest base camp helicopter tour is a thrilling and convenient way to get a close- up view of the world’s tallest mountain, Mount Everest. This type of tour typically offers an opportunity to experience the stunning Himalayas and to reach the Everest base camp in a shorter time compared to traditional trekking. The helicopter takes off and flies over the Kathmandu valley, offering astonishing views of the surrounding hills and villages. As you continue your flight, you will be treated to eye- catching views of the Himalayas, including iconic peaks like Lhotse, Makalu, Nuptse, and Mount Everest itself.

The entire tour typically lasts around 3 to 5 hours. The highlight of the tour is landing at Everest base Camp. You will have the chance to step out of the helicopter and take in the surroundings, take photo, and soak in the awe- inspiring scenery. After spending some time at Everest base camp, the helicopter will take you back to Kathmandu, offering chance to appreciate the Himalayan vistas from the air.
It’s important to note that EBC helicopter tours can be quite expensive, but they provide a unique opportunity to witness some of the world’s most spectacular natural beauty in a relatively short period of time. Remember, you won’t actually trek to the summit from there, as that is a separate and extremely challenging endeavor.
