Heli Tour to Everest Base Camp, also popularly called Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour in Nepal, is a sightseeing tour that takes you to the base of the highest peak in the whole world, Mt. Everest, via a chopper. This tour will take you to Everest Base Camp and get you back at the hotel in about five and a half hours.
This flight to the base camp is a once-in-a lifetime opportunity for many people, and this type of touring option doesn’t come often. This package starts from your hotel room, as we, at Great Nepal Treks and Expedition, will drive you to the Tribhuvan International Airport for the flight.
This Heli tour to EBC is specially designed for those adventure lovers who are not able to trek to the base of Everest Base Camp yet are thirsty for conquering the trek via any means or have very limited time in Nepal.
The Heli Tour to Everest Base Camp EBC shows you the beauty of the Kathmandu Valley through a bird’s-eye view. Then, later, you will have panoramic views of the white snow peaks, tranquil green hills, and glaciated pass until we get off at the high peak of Kala Patthar.
You will only land at Kala Patthar briefly to enjoy the panoramic views of Everest, Nuptse, Cholatse, Lhotse, Pumori, and other peaks of the Mahalangur Mountain Range. After that, you will be dropped off at the world’s highest resort. Following breakfast, you will fly back to the capital city. Great Nepal Treks offers several breathtaking options for your trip.
Our destination experts craft the best program that will provide you with the opportunity to share a delicious breakfast facing Everest, “one of the highest peaks in the world,” from its edge, fly back and follow whitewater rafting, go on a Chitwan jungle safari, and enjoy dinner with the community who are leaving in the lowest elevation of Nepal, “Kechana Kalan,” Jhapa district, in a single day. Yes, it is possible for us!
