Scenic Helicopter Flight to Everest
Soar above dramatic landscapes as you fly past lush valleys, snow-capped peaks, glacial rivers, and traditional Sherpa villages. The helicopter makes a brief refueling stop at Lukla Airport, offering a close look at one of the world’s most iconic mountain airstrips.
Continue flying over Namche Bazaar, Tengboche Monastery, and the massive Khumbu Glacier, with uninterrupted aerial views of the Everest region’s most famous landmarks.
Landing Near Everest (Weather Permitting)
If weather and safety conditions allow, enjoy a ground landing at Kala Patthar or near Everest Base Camp, one of the closest accessible viewpoints to Mount Everest (8,848.86 m). Capture unforgettable photographs and experience the world’s highest mountain from a truly unique, close-range perspective.
Breakfast with a View at Everest View Hotel
After the landing experience, fly to the legendary Everest View Hotel (3,880 m)—one of the highest-altitude luxury hotels in the world. Relax and enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast with panoramic views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Nuptse, and the Khumbu Icefall.
