Here, you will know the detailed full-day activities in different phases. The Everest Base Camp Helicopter tour package is only 4-5 hours long, starting and ending on the same day. Every phase of the Everest Helicopter Tour in detail is down below.

As many things happen on this tour, you will find everything there in the detailed itinerary. After reading the itinerary, you will have a complete picture of the tour’s phases and significant details. Let’s dive in.

Phase 01: Meet up at Domestic Terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport

After breakfast, you will leave your hotel for the Everest Base Camp Tour departure from Kathmandu.  Then we will meet at the domestic terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. Our representative will welcome you at the airport.

Then we will talk you through the necessary guidelines and codes of conduct of the helicopter tour with us. In between, you will get to speak with the captain of the helicopter ride. By the end of this phase, you will have all the information regarding the helicopter tour. Now, we shall start the helicopter ride to Everest Base Camp.

Phase 02: Flight to Lukla(2,860m) and Refueling | Landing Time: 15 minutes

As we are ready to take off, we will sit on our helicopter seats. The captain will take the helicopter into the skies of Kathmandu. We will fly over the bustling city to the region of Mt Everest, Lukla. Throughout the flight to Lukla, we will enjoy picturesque views of settlements, lush hills, landscapes, and mountains. The notable viewable peaks are Mt Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Langtang Lirung, Gauri Shankar, Ganesh Himal, Shishapangma, and Ama Dablam.

Our helicopter will reach Lukla Airstrip to land in 30 to 40 minutes of take-off from Kathmandu. Lukla Airport or Hillary Tenzing Airport is an entrance to the Everest Region. The airport will be a resting and refueling station for our Everest Helicopter Tour. We will stop for around 15 minutes at Lukla Airport. While at Lukla, we’ll enjoy the place’s vicinity.

(Note: The flight to Lukla typically starts early in the morning, between 6:30 am to 7 am. However, the timing of the flight may alter or delay as per the weather condition. The crew member does a thorough inspection of the weather before flying. Thus, be mentally prepared for any delay or cancellation due to the bad weather.)

Phase 03: Flight to Kala Patthar | Flight Time: 15minutes

The next stop is Kala Patthar, the ultimate landmark on this tour. We hop into the craft again for an excellent scenic but stimulating flight time. The refueled helicopter will follow the ice-stocked mountains through the region. We will be flying above 5,500m in the air, and the views will improve as we pass ahead.

As in the air, we’ll look at the villages and landscapes with a rapidly beating heart. We’ll fly over famous hamlets of the Everest Region like Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, and more. We’ll even fly across the lush vegetation of Sagarmatha National Park.

Enjoying all the good views and calming ourselves, we’ll reach Kala Patthar(5,644.5m). Our helicopter will make a smooth landing at the place. Kala Patthar, the major highlight of the Helicopter Ride to Mount Everest, is the best viewpoint for observing Mt Everest. It is located right in the foothills of various Everest Region peaks, including Everest.

Phase 04: Short Sightseeing at Kala Patthar | Landing Time: 15 minutes

Instantly, we’ll enjoy the legendary mountain panorama of Kala Patthar. The most awaited moment of the Helicopter Tour to Everest Base Camp will be right in front of us. The place offers a remarkable view of Mt Everest that no other place could. Along with that, we’ll observe the adjacent peaks like Nuptse, Lhotse, Changtse, Pumori, Chumbu, Kangtega, Taboche, Lobuche, and more.

Importantly, we’ll have only 10 minutes to enjoy the heavenly view. The crew can manage some extra minutes when requested as per the conditions. There are two reasons why it is so. Firstly, the weather conditions in the mountains are pretty unpredictable. Things can turn against us anytime without any alarm.

Secondly, Kala Patthar lies above 5,500m. We’ll fly to the place without any acclimatization. So existing in the place for a long time is dangerous, and we might get altitude sickness. Therefore, we’ll have a prompt time in Kala Patthar for these two reasons. However, the time is enough to celebrate the view and take enough pictures.      

Phase 05: Flight to Syangboche and Breakfast at Hotel Everest View | Flight Time: 10 minutes, Landing Time: 30 minutes

After enjoying Kala Patthar, it is time to fly to Syangboche for breakfast. The chopper will take us to the Hotel Everest View, another Everest Helicopter Tour highlight. We’ll land at the foothill of the hotel, one of the world’s highest-placed hotels.

After landing, we'll climb through the stairs to the hotel for the most picturesque breakfast ever. The glorious mountains, including Mt Everest, Ama Dablam, and more, will be in front of us. And we’ll take a sip of hot coffee, enjoying the view. All in all, we’ll spend around 30 minutes in Hotel Everest View.

Phase 06: Flight to Lukla for Refueling and back to Kathmandu | Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes

We’ll join the craft once again following a scenic breakfast at Hotel Everest View. This time, the flight will fly to Lukla for refueling. We’ll recapture the same picturesque view of the same region again. In 15 minutes, we’ll be landing at Lukla Airport, where we’ll stop until the chopper gets refueled in 15 minutes.

Once the helicopter is good to go, we’ll join the craft for yet another spectacular air time. The craft will fly over the eye-pleasing landscapes once again, and mountains of the Himalayas will also appear. In 50 minutes, we’ll touch the skies of Kathmandu to make a swift landing at Tribhuvan International Airport’s domestic terminal. This is how we’ll end up back in Kathmandu following an exciting helicopter ride to Everest Base Camp.

Major Stops of Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour

Kathmandu(1,400m)

Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, is the first stop of the helicopter tour to Everest. It is the starting point of this tour or any other tour in Nepal if you are arriving via airplane. The city is full of ancient temples and heritages, hence popular as the city of temples.

Among them, seven sites of Kathmandu are UNESCO World Heritage sites. Pashupatinath Temple, Swaymbhunath Stupa, Bouddhanath Stupa, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square are the most notable ones. These sites are full of architectural, cultural, and historical sightseeing of Nepal’s rich culture and art. So on this Everest Helicopter Tour, you will get to witness the beauty of the capital of Nepal.

Lukla Airport(2,860m)

Lukla, the gateway to the Everest Region, is the tour’s second stop. After flying from Kathmandu, the helicopter lands in Lukla’s Tenzing Norgay Airport, one of the world’s most extreme airports.

Tenzing Hillary Airport is the main highlight of Lukla. It is a small airport built under the direction of Sir Edmund Hilary, the first person to climb Mt Everest along with Tenzing Norgay. The runway of the airport is approximately 527m wide. And the topography of the airport makes it even more scenic. Also, the small town of Lukla on the hillock is worth taking a walk. The town is full of a handful of good bakeries and coffee shops. We can stop there to have some Himalayan talks.

Kala Patthar(5,644.5m)

Kala Patthar, which means black rock, is the ultimate stop of the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour. It is the landmark in the Everest Region on the south ridge of Mt Pumori. You will reach the place by landing to enjoy a clear and close view of the world’s roof.

The scenic view of Mt Everest from Kala Patthar is what the place is famous for. From this viewpoint, one can observe the unparalleled angles of Mt Everest. The other peaks like Nuptse, Changtse, Lhotse, and Pumori are also visible. Alongside glaciers, lateral moraines, amazing landscapes are also clearly viewable from the place.

Syangboche

From Kala Patthar, the helicopter will arrive in Syangboche, a sherpa village in the Everest Region. It is not a big Sherpa village but indeed a scenic one. Mountains like Ama Dablam, Mt Everest, Pumori, Nuptse, and Lhotse are visible from the hamlet. Right next to the town, Syangboche Airport lies, a venue for the world’s highest skydive, Everest Skydive. So, spending some time around the village is another tour’s highlight. Also, it is the landing station for those coming to Everest View Hotel via helicopter.

Everest View Hotel(3,880m)

View from Everest View Hotel during the breakfast time

Located by Syangboche Village, Everest View Hotel is another exciting highlight of the tour. Inaugurated in 1971, Everest View Hotel(3,880m) is one of the world’s highest-placed hotels. The hotel is not too far from Syanboche Airport. One can dine at the hotel and enjoy the tranquil vision of various Everest Region peaks, including Mt Everest. Also, the hotel lies in the boundary of Sagarmatha National Park. So we can view the lush forest of the park and the region. Overall, the walk to and dine at Everest View Hotel is worth every penny.

Best Time for Helicopter Ride to Mount Everest

Joining a helicopter tour is an exciting thing to do. However, if you are not doing it right, things can turn against us. That is why it is crucial to know the best time for any tour.

Type of helicopter aircraft for Everest base camp helicopter tour

In the case of the Everest Helicopter Tour, Autumn and Spring are the best times out of all. The remaining are Monsoon and Winter. We’ll explain in detail about Everest Helicopter Tour in all four seasons down below. After reading this, you will come into a position to pick the right time for your Everest Helicopter Tour. Let’s know them.

Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour with Landing in Autumn

Running through September till November, Autumn is the unbeatable timing for Everest Base Camp visit. Whether by walking or flying, the season is great for adventures in the mountains. What happens in Autumn? Well, the temperature is mild and warm throughout the months. The daytime temperature is around 15-20 degrees celsius. However, the temperature is cold during the night and early morning hours.

Moreover, the months of Autumn have excellent visibility, thanks to the sunny days. We get crystal clear views of mountains and landscapes all day long. There are no or fewer chances for any alteration in the weather. Clouds, fog, and bad weather are not what Autumn is famous for. Instead, it is popular for clear and unobstructed mountain views in Nepal. Thus, a Helicopter Ride to Mount Everest will be successful in the season; there is no doubt.

Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour with Landing in Spring

If there is any season that comes close to Autumn for traveling in Nepal, it is Spring. The season lasts through March, April, and May in Nepal. And visitors from around the globe reach Nepal to do various tours in Nepal in the meantime. It is one of the peak seasons for traveling in Nepal, following Autumn.

Spring brings the blossoming season into Nepal. It is the time when the landscapes of Nepal are full of colorful flowers. Not only that, but the temperature is also quite warm and cozy. The average temperature of the Everest Region in Spring is around 15°C during the daytime. The numbers drop in night and morning hours. Otherwise, there is nothing to worry about Spring’s temperature.

Similarly, the chances of rainfall and bad weather are pretty low as in Autumn. That means we’ll not face any weather problems during our Everest Helicopter Tour in Spring as well. Instead, we’ll observe the undisturbed views of Mt Everest and other peaks.

Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour with Landing in Summer

Unlike Spring and Autumn, Summer is not the right time for an Everest Helicopter Trip. Instead, it is time for heavy rainfall in all the parts of Nepal. Most of the regions receive loaded rainfall and remain wet throughout the season. Summer runs via June, July, and August. So these are the wettest months of all.

Due to continuous rainfall, the trekking trails of Nepal are wet like no other season. Hence, the tracks are less crowded during the season. The weather can also be quite tricky. Some clouds obstruct views, rainfall, snowfall, and wind can also occur. As a result, Helicopter tours cannot operate freely in such a season as in Autumn and Spring. There are more chances of delays than usual. Above anything, you will not view Mt Everest as it remains under the skies most of the time in Summer.

However, there are some clear days in Summer as well when we can operate a helicopter tour. So you cannot really undo Summer. If the weather is stable for some days, we run helicopter tours to the mountains. Make sure you tell us you are curious to do it. We’ll find the right day for your tour.

Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour with Landing in Winter

December, January, and February are the three winter months in Nepal. And if you travel to Nepal during these months, you will experience cold weather. Yes, Winter is all about frigid temperatures and snowfall around the higher parts of Nepal.  The temperature in the Everest Region remains around 5-10 degrees celsius, which is high compared to other seasons.

People often see Winter as the wrong time for traveling in Nepal. It’s not completely bad, by the way. Yes, the weather is cold, and sometimes it can be cloudy. But if you can take the chilly weather, the Winter months, particularly December and January, are some of the best times for the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour.

It is the time of the year when Mt Everest remains whitish with newly fallen snow. So the view from Kala Patthar is outstanding throughout the season. Plus, it is a festive season. So you can also celebrate Christmas, New Year, and even Valentine's Day in the foothills of the world's most renowned mountain. That would be one of the best things anyone could do in a festival season. 

What is the right time for the Everest Helicopter Tour?

Are you yet confused about the right time for the tour? If yes, let us help you out. As mentioned above, Everest Helicopter Tour is doable throughout the year. All it takes is one good, sunny, and clear day. So it is possible to do the tour even during Winter and Summer. The weather has to be appropriate.

However, if you want fewer uncertainties, Autumn and Spring will be the best times for the tour. The chances of delays and cancelations are quite low due to the favorable weather conditions. Everything is just perfect during these two seasons for a helicopter tour.

On the contrary, you have slight uncertainties during Winter and Summer. You should be okay with possible delays and can wait a while. During these two seasons, the offerings you get later on are something you can never get in Autumn and Spring.

Therefore, Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is doable throughout the year. As it requires one fine day, we can plan the tour any day. You let us know when you want to do it, and we’ll find the right day for the tour.
