The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour, also known as the Everest Heli-tour in Nepal, allows you to enjoy the breathtaking view of Mount Everest (8,848 meters) and offers a swift glimpse of the Everest region Himalayas. The tour includes a landing at Everest Base Camp (EBC) or Kalapatthar, providing a comfortable way to explore the magnificent mountain views within a day.

The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour starts from Kathmandu and flies east towards Everest Base Camp, passing beautiful Sherpa villages and serving as the gateway to Everest. During the flight, you can enjoy eagle-eye views of the Kathmandu Valley's heritage sites. As the flight progresses, snowcapped peaks begin to appear, and the helicopter lands at Lukla airport for refueling, providing a glimpse of the picturesque Lukla villages.
After refueling in Lukla, the flight continues towards Everest Base Camp, passing notable landmarks such as Tengboche, Dingboche, and Gorakshep. Finally, the helicopter lands at Everest Base Camp, where you can witness the world's highest peak right in front of your eyes. Other peaks such as Amma Dablam, Thamserku, Lhotse, and the Khumbu glacier can also be seen from the base camp.
Due to altitude concerns, the landing time at Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar is limited to a maximum of five minutes. However, during this time, you can enjoy the 360° views of Mount Everest and take beautiful pictures to commemorate your journey. The helicopter then takes you back to Syangboche (Everest View Hotel) for tea/coffee or breakfast, where you can admire the stunning mountain vista and get an excellent view of Mount Everest.
