Overview
Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is like a roller coaster. It provides adrenaline and excitement as you soar up and then swoop down to view the sights in of the awe-inspiring Himalayan range.
The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is a convenient method for tourists to see the famous Mount Everest and the other Himalayan mountains from above. The tour usually starts in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, where travelers are picked up and taken to the domestic airport for a short flight to Lukla, a small town in the Solu-Khumbu region of Nepal. From there, the helicopter takes a beautiful route over the Himalayas, flying by snow-covered peaks, glaciers, and small villages in the middle of nowhere.
The best part of the tour is going to the Everest Base Camp, which is on the south side of Mount Everest at a height of 5,364 meters (17,598 feet). Mountaineers who want to climb the world's highest peak start from the base camp. Trekkers and tourists also like to visit this area. The helicopter will land at the base camp, where people can get out to take pictures and enjoy the beautiful views of the mountain.
After the base camp, the helicopter will fly in a circle around the mountain, giving passengers a chance to see the Khumbu Glacier and other nearby peaks. Including the flight and stops at the base camp and other interesting places, the tour usually lasts between 5 and 6 hours.
The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is not for everyone because it involves flying at high altitudes and may not be good for people with certain health conditions.
