Everest Base Camp Trek & Helicopter Tour with Landing and Return
About this tour
EBC Heli Trek is unique because it combines both a hike and a helicopter ride to reach Everest Base Camp, which is not commonly offered by other trek packages.

The scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla is also a unique feature of this activity, offering breathtaking views of the mountains and landscapes. Moreover, the itinerary is well-designed and allows for a visit to some of the most famous and beautiful places in the Everest region, including Namche Bazaar, Everest Base Camp, and Kala Patthar, all within a relatively short duration of time. Overall, this activity is an excellent choice for adventure-seekers who want to experience the beauty and magnificence of the Himalayas in a unique and exciting way.

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.
