Helicopter tours in Kathmandu, Nepal
Kathmandu is the launch point for some of the most dramatic mountain flights anywhere in the world, with routes that fly past Everest, Kala Patthar, and the wider Himalayan range.
When's the best time to fly?
October to November and March to April offer the clearest mountain visibility. The monsoon season (roughly June to September) brings cloud cover that can obscure the peaks or delay flights.
What should I bring?
Warm layers even if it's warm on the ground, since cabin temperatures drop noticeably at the altitudes these routes fly. Consider motion-sickness precautions too if you're not used to mountain flying.
What if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in Kathmandu have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
