Is the EBC Trek Return Back by Helicopter right for you?
The Everest Base Camp Trek Return by Helicopter is a fantastic adventure that includes an exhilarating mountain flight to Lukla, several days of trekking in the Everest region with adequate acclimatization, a magnificent view of Mount Everest from the base camp and Kala Patthar, and a fun helicopter ride from Gorekshep to Kathmandu.
The trek is for anyone who is pressed for time or wants to cut back on the number of days they spend hiking. Due to the fact that you will fly from Gorekshep to Lukla in a helicopter instead of hiking back, it's also a fantastic opportunity for those who aren't in the best physical form, elderly people, and kids.
Let us remind you that the EBC Trek return back by helicopter is not a good option for a budget traveler because the cost of the pricey helicopter journey makes it more expensive than the conventional 14-Day trek.
How does the itinerary for the trek to EBC and Return Back by Helicopter make for the best experience?

The Everest Base Camp Trek Return Back by Helicopter is available throughout the year, so contact us for up-to-date costs and booking. Also, let us know if the given itinerary is not suitable.

Since the package is bound to a tight schedule, we request you to have at least 1 or 2 days extra at hand. This way, we can arrange your permits as swiftly as possible.
