About this tour

The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is the perfect way for you to explore the Everest Base Camp and witness the artistry of the Everest Region. You get to feast upon the surreal beauty of the snowcapped Himalayas like Khongde Ri ( 6093 m), Kapsale (5583 m), Khumbi (5761 m), and Tobuche (6367 m) along the way to your destination. Not to mention the view from the Kalapthar is otherworldly. The Heli Tour to Everest Base Camp is a classy way to enjoy the elegance of the Everest Himalayas. It is the best-suited tour for people with a short amount of time. The best time of the year for the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is Spring and Autumn. March, April, and May are the best months as they come just after the winter season. As we all know, the winter season brings snow to the mountains. Autumn (September, October, and November) is also a good season. The cost of a Heli tour to Everest Base Camp depends upon the time of the year and varies from one company to another.

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.
