The Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is the perfect way for you to explore the Everest Base Camp and witness the artistry of the Everest Region. You get to feast upon the surreal beauty of the snowcapped Himalayas like Khongde Ri ( 6093 m), Kapsale (5583 m), Khumbi (5761 m), and Tobuche (6367 m) along the way to your destination. Not to mention the view from the Kalapthar is otherworldly.
The Heli Tour to Everest Base Camp is a classy way to enjoy the elegance of the Everest Himalayas. It is the best-suited tour for people with a short amount of time. The best time of the year for the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour is Spring and Autumn. March, April, and May are the best months as they come just after the winter season. As we all know, the winter season brings snow to the mountains. Autumn (September, October, and November) is also a good season. The cost of a Heli tour to Everest Base Camp depends upon the time of the year and varies from one company to another.
