Acclimatization

On our Day Tour of Everest Base Camp in Helicopter, we fly from Kathmandu at 1,300 meters to the maximum altitude of 5,545m in only a few hours. The rapid increase in altitude may result in Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). Therefore, it is important that we are extra careful. We can take Diamox tablet as a precaution before starting the trip. It is also advised that you consult your doctor before booking the trip.

Best Time To Travel

The best time to take this trip is from September to April. Although spring and autumn are Nepal’s popular tourist seasons, a helicopter day trip in the winter guarantees equally clear views that will have you mesmerized. However, being the monsoon season the months of June, July and August are not recommended.
