Recently, for various reasons, people have less and less time to relax. And during this time I want to see a lot.
Therefore, we offer short, combined tours (trekking and helicopter), which have recently become very popular.

Option 1. One of such popular programs is trekking and helicopter tour to Everest base camp.

Day 1
Meeting at the airport, transfer and check-in at the hotel

Day 2
Preparation of documents, purchase of equipment, tour of Kathmandu. Overnight at the hotel

Day 3
After an early breakfast, transfer to the heliport and fly to Lukla (approximately 45 minutes). From here begins an easy and beautiful trekking to Phakding (6 km, 3 hours on foot, altitude 2656 m), or to Monjo, 2835 m (you need to walk an additional approximately 1 hour). Accommodation in a hotel and guest house

Day 4
After breakfast, according to your readiness, we go on a longer but beautiful trekking to Namche Bazaar (distance around 10 km, 6 hours on foot, altitude 3440 m, elevation difference +- 800 m). Accommodation in a hotel or guest house

Day 5
Today is your acclimatization day. Walks, rest in Namche Bazaar

Day 6
Today we have a short passage of 1.5 hours (1.6 km) to the new panoramic hotel Everest View hotel. Overnight stay

Day 7
When the helicopter is ready, you will fly to the Everest base camp area. You will have a landing at an authorized and panoramic location in the Kala Pathara area (altitude in the region of 5400 m). Here you will stay in the area for 30-60 minutes for beautiful photography, and also fly around the mountainous area. Then you will immediately fly to Lukla and then fly to Kathmandu on the same helicopter (travel time is about 2 hours). Check-in at the hotel.

Day 8
Rest day in Kathmandu. Overnight at the hotel.

Day 9
Transfer to the airport, flight home.

Attention!

Option 3. You visit several interesting places with short trekking

Important information on the helicopter part of the tour! Safety, load capacity, height.
First of all, this concerns the tour to Everest Base Camp. The maximum takeoff weight of the helicopter when taking off from Kathmandu is 450 kg and this is valid until landing at Syangboche (Everest View Hotel). As a rule it is 5 participants. But already in the highland zone, when landing Ferice (4370 m), the helicopter's carrying capacity should be no more than 420 kg. And in order to land in Kalapattar (5644 m) - only 220 kg!! In this regard, all flight participants (4-5 people in a group) cannot be delivered to Kalapattar at the same time. The helicopter must make an additional flight from Ferice to Kalapattar (two flights from Ferice).
