Lukla Flight Information
There might be slight alterations to the trek itinerary, mainly during peak trek seasons (March, April, May, October, and November), as the flight to Lukla will be from Ramechhap/Manthali instead of Kathmandu due to traffic congestion. At other times, the flight will be from Kathmandu. To catch a flight from Ramechhap, we must leave Kathmandu and head to Manthali around 12:30 a.m. on the scheduled departure date. The drive will take around five hours.
Comprehensive Overview 5 Days Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trekking Tour
The Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter starts with an early morning scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. From Lukla, you will take a short hike to Phakding (2,650m). The following morning, you will head to Namche Bazaar (3,440m) - the gateway to Everest. The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trek will be pleasurable and exciting as you traverse several bridges, including the Hillary Suspension Bridge just before Namche.
You will spend one day acclimatizing in Namche before heading to Mount Everest Base Camp on a helicopter. However, you will not be staying idle in Namche. You can take you for a hike to Sagarmatha National Park and or Khumjung. People believe that the Khumjung monastery houses a yeti scalp. You can also visit Syangboche Airport (3,780m), one of the highest airports in the world. If you want to see Mount Everest, you can hike up to Everest Hotel.
After an acclimatization day at Namche, you will head to Mount Everest Base Camp on a helicopter. The flight will be thrilling and filled with unquestionably beautiful views of snow-capped mountains and high-altitude villages. As you look down from the helicopter, you will get a bird's eye view of the whole Everest region - including Gokyo lakes and other high passes. The helicopter will land in Kala Patthar (5,555m). Kala Patthar Viewpoint provides up-close and panoramic views of Everest and other high mountains.
Even though you might think Everest Base Camp seems to be the perfect place to view Everest, it is not true. You cannot see Mount. Everest from Everest Base Camp, so Kala Patthar is the favored place for viewing Everest and surrounding areas. After enjoying the views from Kala Patthar, we head back to Lukla on the helicopter. The next day, we will take an early morning flight back to Kathmandu.
This 5 Days Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trekking Tour is for everyone who wants to see the world's highest mountain with minimal effort and within a few days.
Why 5 Days Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trekking Tour?
The Everest Base Camp Helicopter tour package is for those looking for a crisp and refreshing journey to Everest Base Camp - mainly on a helicopter. You will stay for three days in Phakding and Namche Bazaar, where you can familiarize yourself with Sherpa culture and tradition. As you will cover the higher trek elevations in a helicopter, your trek will be very comfortable.
DWT recommends all our valuable clients arrive at Kathmandu as early as possible, at least one day before the trek departure date, for last-minute preparations. If in case you missed the online trip briefing, it will allow us time to conduct an in-person briefing. The flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and Lukla to Kathmandu may get delayed due to the weather. In such cases, we reschedule these flights to the next available flight. So, we suggest our clients add at least 2 extra days as a cushion to the trip to avoid international flight delays back to their home country.

Best Time for the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour
The weather is the most important factor you need to consider while deciding for a helicopter tour to the Everest Base Camp. You can find weather predictions at Everest Base Camp online, but there is no certainty because weather changes quickly in high altitudes.
People trek to Everest base camp throughout the year, but trekking in certain seasons is much more favorable. Autumn and spring skies are crystal clear from dusk to dawn, and there is no rain, and the temperatures are just right, letting you enjoy the stunning views of high mountains and other landscapes.
The temperatures are low in winter and there is heavy snowfall in trek regions making Everest Base Camp treks challenging. Similarly, the summer season in Nepal coincides with the monsoon, and the trails can be wet and slippery. Here is a summary of monthly weather conditions at the high trek altitudes.
January to February
This is the coldest time, especially from early January to early February. There is heavy snowfall in the mountains resulting in extremely cold temperatures. Though the daytime may be warm and admirable with clear skies, the nighttime would be extremely cold. Trek is challenging but not impossible. We organize treks during these months as well. However, if you are allergic to colds, we do not recommend you this trek during these months.
Temperature: 15°C to -15°C.
March to April
It is one of the best times to hike to the Everest Base Camp. The weather is very favorable, letting you enjoy stunning views of the Himalayas ranges and glaciers. March being the beginning of the spring season, the weather starts to warm up. All flora and fauna dormant throughout the winter come back to life- feeding, thriving, and breeding in the sun-kissed temperatures. Temperatures start increasing from the mid of March, and with clear skies, snow mountains look their best. Many trekkers complete this trek during these months.
Temperature: 18 °C to -12 °C.
May to June
These months are also favorable for trekking - just before the monsoon becomes active. Rainfall starts from the end of June and lasts till mid-August. The mix of spring and summer seasons makes Everest Base Camp treks very attractive at this time.
Temperature: 25°C to -5°C.
July to August
The rainfall hits its peak at elevations below 3500 meters. Due to heavy rain, flights to Lukla may get canceled at the beginning or end of the trek, but trekkers trek to Everest Base Camp during these months. Due to the monsoon, you will be getting spectacular views of waterfalls. Discovery World Trekking conducts safe treks during these months as well.
Temperature: 27°C to 5°C
September to October
This is also one of the perfect seasons for the EBC trek, attracting thousands of tourists to EBC. As the monsoon slowly ends, a perfect trekking climate sets in. The temperatures are also very favorable - it reaches 20 degrees during the day and fall to 5 degrees at night. With clear skies, great trail conditions, and perfect views of mountains, this season is a boon for the trekkers. The main festivals of Nepal - Dashain, and Tihar - fall during these months, adding a festive mood to your trek.
Temperature: 20°C to 5°C
November to December
As winter begins, snowfalls begin in the Himalayas region, and it eventually gets tough to trek. The sparkling days let you enjoy stunning mountain views during November. From December, the temperature dips, and snowfalls make nights frigid.
Temperature: 10°C to -17°C.
The weather in the Himalayas is unpredictable and changes quickly.
Trip Grade, Fitness level
This helicopter tour involves a limited on-foot trek. You will only hike from Lukla to Phakding for 3 hours and from Phakding to Namche for 5 to six hours. In addition, during the rest and acclimatization day, we will trek to nearby areas. Since there is no heavy trek involved, almost all people can complete this trek. If you have sensitive medical conditions such as lung or heart diseases, please consult us before booking.
Trekking group/single
This is a private tour because of its nature - a helicopter tour. The helicopter is comfortable for three persons and can accommodate four persons at the maximum.
Travel insurance
Travel insurance is compulsory. The policy must cover medical and emergency repatriation - including helicopter rescue and evacuation expenses at the highest trek altitudes (up to 6000m).
If you require, we can recommend insurance companies for you- based on our previous clients' experience. However, we do not sell insurance. We request all our valuable clients to send their insurance details within a week of booking the trip. In emergencies, we will use your documents for rescue.
Before buying travel insurance, call insurance companies and recheck if they have helicopter rescue and evacuation up to 6000m. Don't just rely on the insurance company's web content.
Passport and visa
All foreigners, except Indians, require a visa to enter Nepal. Most nationals get an on-arrival visa at the Tribhuvan International Airport. You can get a visa at immigration checkpoints along Nepal borders as well.
A visa application will require a passport with at least six-month validity, a passport-size photo, and visa application fees. The current visa application fee is USD 50 for a thirty-day stay, which you can pay in cash (dollars). Chinese and SAARC ( Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka ) citizens get free visas.
Citizens from Nigeria, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Cameroon, Somalia, Liberia, Ethiopia, Iraq, Palestine, and Afghanistan may not receive on-arrival visas. So if you are from any of these countries, you will have to contact your local Nepalese embassy.
Visa information may change without notice, so for recent visa information, visit - https://www.immigration.gov.np/.
Money exchange
Nepali Rupees (NPR) is the local currency.
(1 USD = ~ Rs.120 NPR).
You can exchange major foreign currencies through local banks and legitimate money exchanges in Kathmandu and all over Thamel. Legal money exchanges display their ongoing rates visibly. If you have Indian Rupees, please note that only Indian Notes of 100 and 2,000 are legal in Nepal.
Despite the security advantage of traveler's cheques, we recommend you cash exchanges to avoid lengthy processes and high bank commission rates. You can also withdraw cash (in Nepalese Rupees only) from one of the many ATMs in Kathmandu and Thamel itself. Several of these ATMs are open round the clock for convenience.
The maximum withdrawal amount is Rs. 35,000 Rupees for a 500 Rupees processing fee using a foreign card. If you use the money exchange facility at banks and financial institutions, the service charge imposed is about 4% or more.
Please note that there are no banks and money exchanges in trek regions. So you should exchange your money in Kathmandu, depending on your expense estimates. Additionally, trek regions accept Nepalese currency only.
Most established banks in Asia will not accept old, torn, or faded foreign currencies. Please ensure that you have new and clean notes.
How much luggage can I bring to the Everest Base Camp Helicopter tour?
The luggage weight limit per trekker is 9 kg. We provide one porter for every two trekkers, and we do not allow our porters to carry more than 18 kg of combined weight.

I cannot emphasize enough how highly my husband and I recommend Discovery World Trekking! Right from the start, Paul's communication was exceptional. Whenever we had questions, he would reply almost instantly. We were pleasantly surprised and thrilled to learn that he is the owner and that he took the time to meet us personally before and after the tour.
It was truly remarkable. He even made it a point to check in with our guide every day during the tour to ensure our happiness and well-being. I have never encountered such genuine customer service before. Our guide was absolutely amazing too. Throughout our time in Nepal, it was evident that we had chosen one of the finest touring companies.

When trekking in the Himalayas, the most important thing is to have someone who can ensure your safety and provide assistance in case of any mishaps. Paul fulfilled that role for us perfectly! He skillfully handled everything, from arranging a helicopter to overseeing the entire journey.
We are immensely thankful to him and his team for helping us through the challenges. We finished our trek without much trouble, we have every intention of returning in the future to complete it with Paul and his team!
