The Luxury Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trek is one of the most luxurious trekking adventures for those who wish to spend every night in high-end lodges and hotels throughout the trip. Once you reach your dream destination—Everest Base Camp (5,346m)—and successfully summit Kalapattar (5,550m) for breathtaking views of Mount Everest, Pumori, and other majestic peaks, you will fly back to Lukla by helicopter. This means you can skip the 4-day trek back to Lukla, saving both time and energy.
This trek offers a once-in-a-lifetime experience, allowing you to soar through the high mountains of Everest and the Himalayas by helicopter. Our carefully curated itinerary, aptly named the Luxury Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trek, begins in Kathmandu with a 30-minute scenic flight to Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla, one of the busiest airports in Nepal.
The trekking adventure kicks off with at least 4 hours of walking through charming Sherpa villages and alongside the Dudhkoshi River, making stops at Phakding and Monjo before reaching the famous Sherpa settlement of Namche Bazaar.To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience without altitude sickness, we include two acclimatization days: the first in Namche Bazaar (3,440m) and the second in Dingboche (4,350m) before proceeding to Everest Base Camp and Kalapattar. The mountain views from Kalapattar are often considered more spectacular than those from Everest Base Camp itself.Key viewpoints along the trek include Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, Gorakshep, Kalapattar, and Everest Base Camp.
After completing the Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek, instead of retracing the route back to Lukla like on a standard trek, you will enjoy a private helicopter flight directly from Gorakshep (5,200m) back to Lukla. This is what makes it a truly luxurious experience!
The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trek offers several advantages for those looking to make their dream trip to Everest Base Camp within a short timeframe. Here are some key benefits:
Time Efficiency: This trek is perfect for those who want to experience Everest Base Camp without the lengthy descent back to Lukla. You can save several days by flying back by helicopter, allowing you to maximize your time in the region.
Comfort: Enjoy a more comfortable trekking experience with high-quality lodges throughout the Everest Trail. You can also relax in a 5-star hotel in Kathmandu, ensuring a luxurious journey.
Budget Options: We offer budget-friendly helicopter treks with a 12-day itinerary, providing excellent value without sacrificing comfort. These packages utilize the best available lodges and services.
Shorter Trekking Alternatives: If the 12-day trek is not suitable for your schedule or budget, we also offer a 7-day Comfort Everest View Trek and an Everest Helicopter Tour package, which are economical options for experiencing the region.
