See Mount Everest in a morning, without a two-week trek. A 5-seat helicopter leaves Kathmandu at dawn, follows the Dudh Kosi valley past Namche Bazaar, lands at Kala Patthar for the closest views of Everest, and stops at the Everest View Hotel for breakfast.
Spaces are limited to five guests per flight. The itinerary depends on weather, and your guide stays in contact with the pilot to select the best window.

Who is this trip for?
Travellers short on time, anyone who cannot trek, and photographers. No altitude acclimatisation is needed because the stay at altitude is short.
