On our ‘EBC Trek and Fly Back by Helicopter’ tour, we trek to the base camp of the world’s highest mountain, Mt. Everest, and visit Kala Patthar which is another most sought after destination in the Everest region. The 12-day trip begins in Kathmandu and we fly to Lukla the next day and begin trekking from there. We charter a helicopter on our way back to Lukla from Gorak Shep. Another exciting part of our Everest trip is the helicopter tour over the pristine Gokyo Lake, which is also a popular trekking destination among trekkers who travel the Everest region.
