Overview
Everest Helicopter Tour from Kathmandu is the most popular day tour package available from the capital city of Nepal. The tour begins with an early morning pick up from your hotel in Kathmandu. You will then board a helicopter flight to Lukla. After a short break and refueling at Lukla Airport, the helicopter will then take a short flight towards Pheriche for shuttling. The flyby flights are then shuttled to fly over Mt. Ama Dablam, Mt. Pumori, Kala Patthar, Everest Base Camp, Mt. Everest, Khumbu Icefall and Khumbu Glacier. After a successful completion of both the shuttle flights, all travelers will fly to Hotel Everest View. Here the travelers can enjoy a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains with an option to enjoy their morning breakfast as well.
