Activity itinerary

Kathmandu
  • 1h
Kathmandu, Nepal's vibrant capital, is the starting point of the journey. Known for its rich cultural heritage and bustling atmosphere, Kathmandu is a gateway to the Himalayas, blending ancient temples, historic architecture, and lively markets. Before heading to the airport, you’ll experience a bit of the city’s energy, a perfect contrast to the serene mountains that await.
Lukla (Pass by)
Lukla is home to one of the most famous—and challenging—airports in the world, known for its short runway nestled between mountains. Serving as the main gateway to the Everest region, Lukla is a hub for trekkers and mountaineers. The brief stop here allows for refuelling, while you can enjoy your first views of the rugged Himalayan landscapes and observe the vibrant activity of this iconic trekking town.
Everest Base Camp (Pass by)
Everest Base Camp (EBC), located at 5,364 metres (17,598 feet), is a historic spot where climbers begin their ascent to the summit of Mount Everest. Although the helicopter does not land here, the flyover provides a stunning perspective of the base camp and surrounding peaks. From the air, you’ll see the Khumbu Glacier and the iconic tents dotting the landscape. This aerial view gives a unique appreciation for the preparation and challenge faced by climbers aiming to conquer the world’s tallest mountain.
Kala Pattar (Pass by)
Kala Patthar, at an elevation of 5,545 metres (18,192 feet), is one of the best viewpoints in the Everest region. Known for offering close-up views of Mount Everest, the aerial journey over Kala Patthar provides passengers with breathtaking views of Everest's peak and other towering summits. The flyover here is a highlight of the tour, allowing you to witness the majesty of the world's tallest peaks without the physical demands of trekking.
Syangboche Marg
  • 1h
The stop at Syangboche (3,780 metres or 12,402 feet) is particularly memorable, as it includes a visit to the Everest View Hotel. Known as the world’s highest-altitude luxury hotel, the Everest View Hotel offers panoramic views of Everest and surrounding peaks. Here, you can take in the crisp mountain air and, if you choose, enjoy breakfast against a backdrop of snow-capped giants. This is the only place on the tour where you can step out, relax, and fully appreciate the scenery with a meal and refreshments.
Kathmandu
  • 30m
On the return journey, the helicopter may stop briefly at Lukla for refuelling before heading back to Kathmandu. As you descend, you’ll have one last opportunity to admire the changing landscapes, transitioning from towering peaks back to the lush, rolling terrain of the lower valleys. Returning to Kathmandu offers a gentle re-entry to urban life, concluding the tour with memories of some of the most majestic landscapes on earth.
