Have you ever dreamt of seeing Mt. Everest from above? If so, don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the world’s highest mountain via a helicopter tour. This unparalleled view of Mt. Everest, the lush landscape, and the mighty Himalayan peaks will be one of your most treasured memories of your trip to Nepal. It’s one thing to see it on T.V.V. or in photos; it’s another to view this incredible natural wonder from high up in the air as you soar over it in a chopper.
What did you get from this trip?
The Nepal tour is amazing and doesn’t end with a trip to Mount Everest. After your Nepal helicopter tour, you can visit Pokhara, the Annapurna Himalayan range, Upper Mustang, Muktinath temple tour, and the Langtang areas, which are famous for their lakes (Gosainkunda) and mountains. You also get to visit Chitwan National Park, one of Asia’s most beautiful national parks due to its one-horned rhino and Bengal tigers. However, the Gokyo Lake trek is another thing that makes Nepal an extraordinary place; it is a close look at Mt. Everest with breathtaking views of other peaks like Lhotse, Nuptse, Amadablam, and many unnamed peaks. The city has many more surprises left in store for you, so don’t forget your camera!
Who should take it?
The Best Everest helicopter tour is available to anyone with $1,000 or so (depending on the season and your taste) in extra cash. Travelers looking for a different special adventure or those who want a less demanding way of reaching base camp could consider joining one of these popular tours. Unlike private climbs, you don’t have to lug around tons of equipment and supplies. However, that does mean you won’t have any control over where you go during your visit. Sticking with a hike might be a better choice if you love hiking. If not, though—and if you’re willing to pay—the helicopter ride will be truly unforgettable.
How does it work?
Most helicopter tours offer a similar experience. You meet with an operator in a hotel or restaurant and often fly over a local mountain or valley. If you’re hoping for more than that, consider booking an Everest helicopter tour. Contact Boundless Adventure (p) Ltd by Whatsapp at +977 9851033819 or by email for your convenience. We have been operating helicopter tours and cultural Nepal tour packages since 199A.D.D.
Mountaineers have been trying to summit Mount Everest since British explorer George Mallory did so in 1924; today, there are about 300 such climbers each year (in addition to Sherpas). While there are many ways for tourists to witness these epic attempts—including from hotels along nearby ridges—the closest you can get is from above by helicopter.
What should you wear?
Wearing a warm Jacket with huck is preferable, as you don’t want any part of your body touching a potentially icy surface. Avoid wearing short sleeves and loose pants. It would help if you had sunglasses, woolen hats, gloves, and down jackets.
Remember that a warm coat is essential for keeping yourself alive at high altitudes—the temperature will be much lower than anything you’ve experienced before, so make sure it’s not too bulky so that it doesn’t restrict movement.
Where can I watch my friends and family come down?
If you’re interested in experiencing a truly unique way to see Everest, you can book a tour that includes or excludes an overnight stay at Shyangbouche. There are five-star hotels available. You can start the Everest tour from Syangbouche as well.
What happens if we see an accident?
When you’re on an Everest helicopter tour, bad weather can mean you might have to make a rapid descent. The higher up you are, the more dangerous it becomes when visibility is poor, so you always need to be prepared no matter what altitude you’re flying at. Poor visibility isn’t something that will land us in trouble because we use special instruments called altimeters that tell us how high we are at sea level. That allows us to keep track of our position even if visibility is very poor. On the other hand, if there is poor visibility, then we are not flying that day. We will try next week. Similarly, if you don’t have time for the following days, you’ll get your money back on the helicopter tour.
How long will we be flying?
Usually, a typical tour will be about 3 hours long, but some tours may take longer. If you have time constraints for your tour or are very pressed for time (for instance, if you have only a few days in Nepal), then it’s best to confirm with your flight operator before booking a tour. That way, you can ensure that what you want is available and easily arranged. However, Boundless Adventure (p) Ltd generally offers Everest helicopter tours lasting around 4 hours. You’ll need plenty of time at each location, so figure out how long your flight(s) will be ahead of time! Please note: 3 to 4 hours includes breakfast time while we are landing in the nearby mountains.
When is the best time of year to go?
The best times of the year are from March to May and September to December. But, sometimes the weather is terrible, even in October. You never know about four casts, but we primarily work in such months. Summer can also be an excellent option for independent travelers who want to take their time. Temperatures are typically cooler in August and September, so you don’t have to worry about overheating. You also have more daylight hours in the summer than you would have during the peak season. One disadvantage of visiting Nepal during the off-season is that there will be fewer services available, such as hotels and flights around Nepal; however, if these aren’t deal breakers for you, why not take advantage of them?
Is there an age limit?
Regarding the age for helicopter tours, every adult and senior citizen can travel, but we do not recommend it for children (up to 10 years). If you would like to travel with your child, it will be at your own risk. Because we are flying over 6000 meters from sea level and landing at 5416 meters, it is dangerous for children at high altitudes.
