So, fly over the Everest region of Nepal to get a bird’s view of glaciers, passes, high-altitude lakes, mountains, and wild landscapes.

    Everest Helicopter tours offer remarkable views of the white snow peaks and Himalayan landscape. You get information about the peaks and surrounding geography from the pilot. It starts from Kathmandu and stops in Lukla at the beginning for fuel. It is an entrance to the Everest base camp, densely populated with sufficient facilities. Then it flies into the high mountains, which provide lifetime adventurous experiences, and lands at Kalapatthar, an iconic place to glimpse Mount Everest and surrounding peaks. It is a superb view of the high alpine zone. After viewing Gokyo Lake and snow-peaked mountains, we return to Kathmandu via Lukla. All Nepal Hiking has been operating Everest Helicopter Tour packages from short to long trips. The trip can be customized according to the area coverage and budget.

    Notes: The flight from Lukla to Kathmandu is redirected to Ramechhap due to traffic congestion and a high influx of tourists during the high season. The high tourist season in Nepal is spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). In the season of tourism, there are many international and domestic flights operating in different sectors which is more than capacities of the small Tribhuban international airport. Due to this reason, there is the problem with air traffic and delays in Lukla flights too. Lukla flights are only in the morning time and it does not fly during day time due to heavy wind and foggy weather on the way to Lukla. If the flights are from Ramechaap, there is no issue of air traffic and flight duration is also less than from Kathmandu. Flight to Ramechhap will add 5 hours approx. to your journey. It seems like an added inconvenience but let’s see the brighter side

      EBC Trek

      Thank you once again to All Nepal Hiking for the professionalism in arranging this trip and special thanks to Guide Chetan and Porter Mahabir Majhi for all the hard work!

      Nepal and the EBC trek had been downright awesome and breathtaking. Besides the views being spectacular, the place itself had given me the peace needed, while also the necessary reflection in life. More importantly, understanding the rich culture and way of life of the sherpas broadened my horizons.

      Somehow whoever come across my post, to give EBC trek a shot. It will definitely be worth the experience and so are the takeaways! Life is too soon for regrets!

      P.S. Shoutout to all the Guides, Porters, Sherpas, Mountaineers out there for inspiring the world!
