The perfect time for a helicopter
tour to Everest Base Camp
Although the
weather in the Everest region varies from season to season, you don't have to
avoid having this pleasant experience. As it is a few hours, you can have your
flight around the reason for Everest if the weather is beautiful at this
particular time. We cannot operate your flight on a rainy or foggy day. There
is no point in having a flight because you cannot observe the scenario correctly.
It is not appropriate to go there, given your safety as well.
Spring and
fall seasons are usually best suited to have a flight to Everest. In these
seasons, the weather is evident and sunny. Humidity is low, and the chance of
rain is also meager. In winter, you can sometimes have misty weather, but on
beautiful winter days, it is the best time to have the Heli Tour. During the
winter, the snow thickens by a few centimeters, increasing the beauty of the
Himalayas to the next level and complementing the crystal clear sky. In summer,
the mountains face heavy rains most of the day; it is the least suitable season
to take off. However, you can have a helicopter ride in bright climates. One
thing you have to keep in mind is that, during the summer, the weather can turn
the other way in a few seconds.
The trip from Kathmandu to Lukla takes about 40 minutes in average weather conditions. The helicopter flight from Lukla to Everest Base Camp takes about 15 minutes to fly over Everest and land at Kalapatthar.

This four-hour helicopter flight to Everest Base Camp took us to the Everest region and landed at the Kalapatther viewpoint, which is about 5500m high. The helicopter flew low near the base camp so that we could also enjoy the view of the Mount Everest base camp. The fantastic thing about the trip is the landing at the Kalapatther viewpoint in Syngboche. The views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse were impressive and very close. The tour is value for money. An excellent ground assistance team with delivery and collection at the airport. Thank you for organizing this delightful trip.
