Everest View Luxury Helicopter Trek – 7 Days

At Luxury Holidays Nepal, we provide an unparalleled trekking experience, combining adventure with comfort. Our treks include well-organized itineraries, professional guides, and premium services. We offer everything from luxury accommodations and transportation to high-quality equipment. Safety, guest satisfaction, and sustainable practices are at the heart of our operations. Our expert team ensures personalized service, making every trek a memorable and rewarding journey.

When booking your international flights to Nepal, we recommend arriving at least one or two days before your trek begins. Domestic flights to trekking regions like Lukla (for Everest) or Jomsom (for Mustang) are subject to weather conditions and can occasionally be delayed or canceled. Planning for extra days before and after your trek provides flexibility in case of any unforeseen delays. This will also allow you to explore more of Kathmandu or rest before your adventure.

While experienced trekkers may feel confident navigating Nepal's trails independently, hiring a guide is highly recommended. A guide ensures your safety, helps with navigating the sometimes tricky trails, provides local insights, and handles permits and logistics. In case of emergencies, a guide can coordinate necessary rescue operations or medical help. Additionally, having a guide enriches your cultural experience, as they provide context and knowledge about the area.

Yes, all our guides at Luxury Holidays Nepal are fluent in English and have excellent communication skills. They are highly trained, licensed professionals with deep knowledge of the trekking routes, local culture, and traditions. Many guides also speak other languages, depending on the group’s needs, and are adept at ensuring guests' comfort and safety.

The best seasons for trekking in Nepal are during the autumn (September to November) and spring (March to May). Autumn offers clear skies, excellent mountain views, and moderate temperatures, while spring brings beautiful blooms, especially rhododendrons, making the trails picturesque.

Yes, most travelers will need a visa to enter Nepal. You can obtain a visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. Alternatively, you can apply for a visa through a Nepalese embassy or consulate in your country. Make sure to carry passport-sized photos and US dollars to pay the visa fee.

For standard treks, accommodation is in tea houses (basic lodges) along the trekking route. They offer simple rooms with twin beds and shared bathrooms. For those opting for luxury treks, we offer stays at luxury lodges, such as Mountain Lodges of Nepal, with upgraded rooms, private bathrooms, and enhanced comfort.

Yes, travel insurance is mandatory for trekking in Nepal. Your insurance should cover high-altitude trekking (above 4,000m) and helicopter evacuation in case of an emergency. We highly recommend double-checking your policy to ensure it meets all necessary requirements for your trek.

During the trek, you can expect hearty meals, often a mix of traditional Nepali dishes (like dal bhat), pasta, noodles, soups, and bread. The menus in tea houses are basic but nutritious, helping you stay energized. Luxury trekking packages offer more diverse meal options, including international dishes and fresh ingredients.

Our guides are trained in managing altitude sickness and will monitor your health during the trek. If you experience symptoms of altitude sickness, we will take the necessary steps, such as slowing down, descending to a lower altitude, or, in severe cases, arranging for a helicopter evacuation (if covered by your insurance). Acclimatization days are built into our itineraries to reduce the risk.

We provide a detailed packing list before your trip, which includes essentials like proper trekking boots, warm layers, a down jacket, a sleeping bag, sun protection, and personal toiletries. For some treks, we offer equipment like duffel bags, sleeping bags, and trekking poles.

Yes, most tea houses offer charging facilities for a small fee. However, it is advisable to carry a portable power bank as electricity may not always be reliable, especially at higher altitudes.

The best time to trek to Everest Base Camp is during the pre-monsoon (March to May) and post-monsoon (September to November) seasons. These months offer stable weather, clear skies, and the best visibility of the surrounding mountains. The temperatures are moderate during these periods, making the trek more comfortable.

The weather at Everest Base Camp varies with altitude and season. During the spring (March-May), temperatures at higher altitudes can range from -10°C to 5°C (14°F to 41°F). In autumn (September-November), temperatures can drop to -15°C (5°F) at night, especially in the higher regions. Daytime temperatures are usually more pleasant, ranging from 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F) at lower elevations.

Month-Wise Temperature Guide for Everest Base Camp Trek

The sleeping bags provided by Luxury Holidays Nepal are rated for temperatures as low as -20°C (-4°F), ensuring that trekkers stay warm and comfortable even in the coldest conditions at higher altitudes.

Yes, it is possible to hike to Kala Patthar first and then visit Everest Base Camp, although most trekkers typically visit Everest Base Camp first and then ascend Kala Patthar for sunrise views the next day. Kala Patthar offers the best panoramic views of Mount Everest, especially during sunrise or sunset.

Yes, weather conditions, particularly fog, wind, and poor visibility, can affect flights to and from Lukla. It is common for flights to be delayed or even canceled due to adverse weather. We recommend planning for extra buffer days in Kathmandu at the beginning or end of your trek to avoid any disruptions.

As you gain altitude, the air becomes thinner, and temperatures drop significantly. For every 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) you ascend, the temperature can drop by about 6°C (42.8°F). Weather at higher altitudes is also more unpredictable, with the possibility of sudden changes such as snow or wind, especially near Everest Base Camp.

Yes, travelers can obtain a visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. The process is relatively straightforward, and you will need a valid passport, passport-sized photos, and visa fees (payable in USD or other major currencies). Tourist visas are available for 15, 30, or 90 days.

Visa on Arrival: Available at Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu) and major land borders. Fill out an arrival card, submit your passport (6 months validity), photo, and pay the fee:

After completing the visa process, you’ll go through a security scan and then proceed to the luggage collection area. Once you’ve collected your baggage, head toward the exit. In the waiting area outside the exit gate, you will see people holding signs. As you exit the terminal building, look for our team holding a sign with your name and the Luxury Holidays Nepal board. Our representative will greet you there and escort you to your hotel.

The visa-on-arrival process typically takes 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the number of travelers at immigration. Baggage claims can take another 15-30 minutes, but they may vary based on flight schedules and airport traffic.

If you have booked a trek or tour with Luxury Holidays Nepal, we provide airport transfers to and from your hotel. Alternatively, taxis are available outside the airport, but it is recommended to arrange transport in advance for convenience and peace of mind.

The Everest Base Camp trek is considered moderate to challenging due to its high altitude, long trekking days, and varying terrain. The trek involves walking for 5-7 hours a day over a period of 12-14 days, with the highest point at 5,545 meters (18,192 feet) at Kala Patthar. Acclimatization days are built in to help trekkers adjust to the altitude.

The pace of the trek is typically slow and steady, allowing trekkers to conserve energy and acclimatize to the increasing altitude. The guides ensure a manageable pace to suit the group, taking frequent breaks to rest and hydrate.

To prepare for the Everest Base Camp trek, focus on cardiovascular fitness, strength training, and endurance exercises. Regular hiking with a loaded backpack, stair climbing, cycling, and running are excellent ways to build stamina. It’s also recommended to practice walking at a steady pace for 5-6 hours to mimic trek conditions.

Acclimatization is crucial for handling altitude during the trek. Follow the trek's gradual ascent, stay hydrated, and avoid overexertion. Our guides monitor trekkers' health, and acclimatization days are built into the itinerary to help reduce the risk of altitude sickness. It’s important to listen to your body and inform your guide if you experience any discomfort.

Lodging during the Everest Base Camp trek typically includes teahouses or mountain lodges. These are simple accommodations providing basic amenities such as a bed, pillow, and blanket. In Kathmandu, trekkers can stay in comfortable hotels ranging from 3-star to 5-star options depending on their preference.

Yes, private rooms are available in both Kathmandu and some teahouses along the trail. However, availability decreases as you go higher in altitude. In busy seasons, private rooms may be limited, and shared rooms become more common.

Most teahouses have common toilets that are shared by all guests. Some teahouses in lower-altitude regions offer rooms with attached bathrooms, but this becomes rare as you ascend higher.

If you need to stay extra nights in Kathmandu due to flight delays or cancellations, you can easily arrange additional accommodation. At Luxury Holidays Nepal, we can assist in securing hotel bookings for the extra nights at reasonable rates.

Yes, it’s advisable to bring your own toilet paper, as most teahouses don’t provide it. You can also purchase it along the trekking route, but it may be more expensive.

Restrooms are available at teahouses and lodges along the trail. However, between teahouses, restrooms are scarce, and outdoor rest stops may be necessary.

The teahouses offer a variety of meals including Nepali, Tibetan, and basic Western dishes such as pasta, noodles, rice, soups, and potatoes. Meals are hearty, providing enough energy for long trekking days.

Yes, food is prepared to basic safety standards in the teahouses. However, hygiene levels may vary, so it’s a good idea to choose well-established lodges and carry hand sanitizer.

Not at all. Vegetarian meals are widely available along the Everest Base Camp trek. Most teahouses offer options like vegetable soups, dal bhat (lentils and rice), and vegetable noodles or rice.

It is recommended to either boil water or use purifying tablets or filters to ensure it is safe to drink. Bottled water is available for purchase, but it can get expensive at higher altitudes.

Yes, you can get boiled water at teahouses, but it usually comes at an additional cost, especially at higher elevations where fuel is limited. Prices for boiled water increase as you go higher up the trek.

Hot showers are available at most teahouses, but they come at an extra cost. As you climb higher, showers may become limited, and hot water is sometimes provided in a bucket.

Laundry services are not widely available on the trek. You may find laundry services in Namche Bazaar, but at higher altitudes, it's best to hand wash smaller items if necessary.

Yes, you can charge your electronics at most teahouses, but this typically comes at an extra cost. The higher you go, the more expensive the charging fees become, so carrying a portable power bank is recommended.

Yes, all of our guides are certified trekking guides from the Hotel Management and Tourism Training Center in Nepal. Additionally, they have undergone first aid training for high-altitude trekking and are experienced in managing altitude sickness and emergencies.

Safety is our top priority. Our guides carry first aid kits equipped with medicines and basic supplies for altitude sickness, injuries, and other health issues. They are trained to use oxygen supplies and Portable Altitude Chambers (PAC) in case of severe altitude sickness. We also have an emergency evacuation plan in place for helicopter rescues if necessary.

We allocate one guide for every group of trekkers, and for larger groups, additional assistant guides are assigned to ensure safety and manage the group effectively. We allocate one porter for every two trekkers to carry luggage, ensuring that both trekkers and porters are comfortable during the trek.

Yes, all staff members, including guides and porters, are insured by Luxury Holidays Nepal. Their insurance covers medical emergencies, accidents, and evacuation during the trek.

It is recommended to have vaccinations for Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus, and Diphtheria before traveling to Nepal. Consult your doctor for a full list of vaccinations and advice on any additional precautions based on your travel history and current health.

If you become seriously ill during the trek, our guides will assess your condition and take necessary measures. If needed, you will be brought to a lower altitude, and in severe cases, we will arrange an emergency helicopter evacuation to Kathmandu for further medical treatment.

Yes, we have access to a Portable Altitude Chamber (PAC) in case of an emergency. While it is not typically essential to carry during the trek, we can arrange for one upon request for an extra cost of USD 200. The PAC is used to simulate lower altitude conditions and is helpful in cases of severe altitude sickness.

Yes, guesthouses at higher elevations such as Lobuche and Gorak Shep offer oxygen at an extra cost if needed. The cost of oxygen can be high, so we recommend having travel insurance to help with reimbursements.

We can also provide pre-booked oxygen for an extra cost of USD 200 for one oxygen tank, which can be carried along with you from Namche to higher elevations for use as necessary during the trek.

Acclimatization is the process of allowing your body to adjust to the reduced oxygen levels at higher altitudes. On the Everest Base Camp trek, we build in acclimatization days at key points to help your body adapt gradually, which reduces the risk of altitude sickness.

It is recommended to use sturdy, waterproof trekking boots with good ankle support and a comfortable fit. Ensure that your boots are well broken in before the trek to avoid blisters or discomfort. Boots with vibram soles or a similar grip are ideal for the varying terrain on the Everest Base Camp trek.

The sun’s rays are stronger at high altitudes, so it’s crucial to have adequate sun protection. Bring sunscreen (SPF 30+ or higher), sunglasses with UV protection, a wide-brimmed hat, and lip balm with SPF to protect your skin and eyes from harmful UV rays.

We can help you extend your trip with various add-on options, such as exploring Chitwan National Park for a wildlife safari, visiting Pokhara for adventure activities, or taking a cultural tour of Bhutan or Tibet. Let us know your interests, and we will tailor the perfect extension for your holiday.

Notice should be provided 20 days before the trip start date in case of cancellation. The trip can be canceled for justifiable reasons, and a fee of 30% of the trip cost is retained for administrative costs. If the trip is canceled within 20 days, the trip amount is non-refundable as per our terms and conditions.

For submitting a claim to your insurance company after cancellation, we can assist with documentation such as a receipt for the payments made. Refunds will not be provided for unused accommodation in case of trip cancellation caused by personal reasons, sickness, or weather conditions.

More information about our cancellation policy can be found on the Terms and Conditions page.

Tipping is customary in Nepal. We recommend tipping around USD 10-15 per day for your guide and USD 8-10 per day for your porter. The amount is discretionary and can be adjusted based on your satisfaction with their services.

Yes, communication is available at various points along the trek. Most teahouses have Wi-Fi, but the connection can be slow and may require an extra fee. Mobile networks are available in certain areas, though coverage can be patchy at higher altitudes.

For internet usage, the Everest region has a network called Everest Link. You can purchase 6GB of data for NPR 600-800 (USD 5-7) that can be used at one destination, or NPR 2500 (USD 21) for 10GB of data, which can be used in all regions with access to Everest Link. The purchase is valid for one device only.

Some teahouses also offer Wi-Fi hotspots for an additional charge, but the connection may be unreliable. It is recommended that you either purchase Everest Link or use a 3G/4G SIM card for the duration of your trek

If you are a solo traveler and book one of our published dates, there is no additional fee. However, if you sign up for a private trip or request a change of the trip date from one of our published dates, you may be charged an additional fee.

Unfortunately, there is no refund for incomplete treks, as all services such as permits, guides, and porters are pre-arranged and non-refundable. However, you can discuss rescheduling or alternative trekking routes with us if needed.

If you book a group trek, you will be trekking with other like-minded travelers from around the world. We create small groups to ensure personalized attention, and groups typically consist of diverse nationalities and backgrounds.

Our group size typically ranges from a minimum of 2 participants to a maximum of 14 participants. However, the average group size is usually around 8 participants. We also offer options for solo travelers and private group treks. If you’re interested in these, please feel free to contact us for more information.

Yes, we offer the flexibility to add extra days to your trekking itinerary, whether for additional acclimatization or exploration. This can be arranged in advance or during the trek, depending on your preferences and schedule.

Yes, you are responsible for booking your own international flights to and from Kathmandu. We can provide advice on suitable arrival and departure times based on your trek schedule, but the flight bookings must be made by the traveler.

For ground transportation, we provide private vehicles (cars, jeeps, or buses) depending on the group size. For trekking regions such as Lukla, we arrange domestic flights. In certain cases, helicopter flights are also available as an alternative to domestic flights.

The flight to Lukla depends on the trekking season. During peak trekking seasons (March, April, May, October, and November), the air traffic at Kathmandu airport is congested, so flights to Lukla may depart from Manthali Airport in the Ramechhap district. However, during the off-season, you can take a flight directly from Kathmandu airport to Lukla.

You can reach Manthali Airport by vehicle, and the journey takes about 4 to 5 hours (depending on traffic). Usually, airlines provide shuttle services that depart around 3 AM from Kathmandu (depending on the flight time). If airlines do not provide transportation, Luxury Holidays Nepal can arrange a private vehicle for you.

For early morning Lukla flights, you may need to travel to Manthali the day before and stay overnight. More information will be shared with you 2 to 3 weeks before you arrive in Kathmandu.

Vehicles such as Toyota Hiace or Mahindra Scorpio or EV Vans are commonly used for shuttle services between Kathmandu and Manthali. Although the road to Manthali is bumpy, sloping, and winding, the vehicles provided are comfortable for the journey.

The flight from Lukla to Kathmandu depends on the trekking season. During peak trekking seasons (March, April, May, October, and November), direct flights to Kathmandu may not be possible due to heavy air traffic. In these cases, flights land at Manthali Airport in the Ramechhap district.

The major reason for Lukla flight delays or cancellations is bad weather conditions, such as poor visibility. Other reasons include congested air traffic at Kathmandu Airport, staffing shortages, or technical issues.

If your flight to or from Lukla is canceled or delayed due to weather or other conditions, you may opt for a chartered helicopter. Helicopters can operate in weather conditions where planes cannot. The cost for a helicopter is typically around USD 550 per person (one way), based on 5 passengers sharing. These expenses are not covered by Luxury Holidays Nepal, so it's advisable to have funds available and comprehensive travel insurance to cover these costs.

We will provide all necessary documents, such as receipts and letters, to help you claim these expenses through your insurance.

Yes, you can book a helicopter flight instead of a regular domestic flight between Kathmandu and Lukla. The cost is USD 550 per person (one way), based on 5 passengers sharing the helicopter.

A private helicopter charter from Kathmandu to Lukla costs around USD 3,500 one way, and from Manthali to Lukla, it costs USD 2,500 one way. The helicopter can carry up to 5 passengers, so the cost can be shared among the group. If other trekkers from Luxury Holidays Nepal are sharing the flight, the cost may be reduced.

The weight limit in a helicopter depends on the number of passengers. For a typical 5-passenger helicopter, the individual weight limit is around 80 kg (176 lbs) per passenger, with a luggage limit of 15 kg (33 lbs) per person. The total load capacity for the helicopter ranges from 475 to 575 kg (1,047 to 1,267 lbs), including passengers and luggage.

Accommodation during the Everest Base Camp trek is primarily in teahouses or mountain lodges. These are basic lodges offering small, simple rooms with twin beds, blankets, and shared bathrooms. In larger villages like Namche Bazaar, you may find teahouses with more comfortable amenities, such as hot showers and Wi-Fi (for an additional cost).

During the Everest Base Camp trek, accommodation is primarily in teahouses or mountain lodges. These are simple, locally run lodges that offer basic rooms with twin beds, blankets, and shared bathrooms. At lower elevations, such as Phakding and Namche Bazaar, teahouses may offer additional amenities like hot showers, Wi-Fi, and attached bathrooms (at an extra cost). As you ascend to higher altitudes, such as Lobuche and Gorak Shep, the accommodations become more basic, with shared facilities and fewer amenities.

Teahouses are comfortable for trekkers, providing a warm place to rest and meals to fuel your journey. However, don’t expect luxury, as they are designed for practicality in remote mountain regions.

For those opting for single sharing, it is available in most of the places along the trek, particularly at lower elevations such as Phakding, Namche Bazaar, and Dingboche. However, as you trek to higher altitudes like Lobuche and Gorak Shep, availability may be limited due to the smaller number of lodges and higher demand. In such areas, you may need to share a room with other trekkers, especially during peak seasons. If you prefer single sharing throughout the trek, it's best to inform your trekking company in advance, and they will try to arrange it where possible.

In lower altitudes like Phakding, Namche Bazaar, and Dingboche, some teahouses offer rooms with attached bathrooms, though these are usually available at an additional cost. However, as you ascend to higher altitudes like Lobuche and Gorak Shep, most teahouses only have shared bathrooms with basic facilities, and attached bathrooms are generally unavailable.

Teahouses along the trek offer a variety of food options, including Nepali, Tibetan, and Western dishes. Common meals include dal bhat (rice with lentils and vegetables), noodles, soups, pasta, potatoes, pancakes, and momos (dumplings). Breakfast typically includes items like porridge, eggs, toast, and pancakes. While the menu is basic, the food is filling and provides the necessary energy for trekking.

Yes, the food served at teahouses is generally hygienic and safe to eat. Teahouses take care to ensure cleanliness in food preparation, especially in areas with high trekking traffic. However, it's always wise to stick to well-cooked food and drink boiled or purified water to avoid any stomach issues.

Yes, vegetarian options are widely available during the trek. Many teahouses serve vegetable curries, dal bhat, vegetable soups, noodles, and other vegetarian-friendly dishes. In fact, many trekkers prefer eating vegetarian meals in the mountains to avoid potential issues with meat freshness at higher altitudes.

Yes, you can get hot or boiled water at most teahouses along the trek, but it usually comes at an additional cost that increases as you go higher. Many trekkers bring water purification tablets or filters to purify tap water or water from streams, which can be a more cost-effective option.

The tap water in the Everest region is not safe to drink without treatment. You can make it safe by boiling, using water purification tablets, or using a water filter. Bottled water is available for purchase at teahouses, but it becomes more expensive as you ascend. Many trekkers prefer bringing a water filter or purification tablets to avoid buying plastic bottles and minimize environmental impact.

It’s a good idea to bring high-energy snacks like energy bars, nuts, dried fruits, chocolates, and trail mix to keep your energy up during the trek. While you can buy snacks at teahouses, they are often more expensive at higher altitudes due to transportation costs. Having your own snacks ensures you have something readily available when needed.

While you can buy snacks at teahouses, they are often more expensive at higher altitudes due to transportation costs. Having your own snacks ensures you have something readily available when needed.

Yes, most teahouses offer Wi-Fi and charging stations, but both typically come at an additional cost. As you ascend higher, the cost of Wi-Fi and charging increases, and the quality of the Wi-Fi can be unreliable, especially at places like Lobuche and Gorak Shep. It’s recommended to carry a power bank for your devices, as charging facilities may be limited at higher elevations.

Laundry services are generally available in larger villages like Namche Bazaar, but as you ascend to higher altitudes, these services become less common or unavailable. Most trekkers prefer to bring quick-dry clothing and wash smaller items by hand during the trek. It’s best to pack light and plan for limited laundry options.

Hot showers are available at most teahouses at lower elevations like Phakding and Namche Bazaar, though they come at an additional cost. As you get higher, hot showers may become scarce and more expensive, and in some places, you may only have access to a bucket shower with heated water. Prices can range from USD 3 to USD 10 per shower, depending on the altitude.

It’s recommended to avoid meat at higher altitudes, as it may not be fresh due to the lack of refrigeration and the difficulty in transporting it. Also, be cautious about uncooked vegetables and salads, as they may not be washed with clean water. Stick to well-cooked meals and drink only boiled or purified water to avoid any stomach issues.

Yes, some teahouses offer alcoholic beverages such as beer or local drinks like rakshi (a traditional Nepali spirit). However, it is generally discouraged to consume alcohol at higher altitudes, as it can lead to dehydration and exacerbate symptoms of altitude sickness. It’s best to avoid alcohol during the trek, especially as you ascend higher.

The cost of food and accommodation during the Everest Base Camp trek varies based on altitude and the type of services offered. As you ascend higher, prices tend to increase due to transportation challenges and limited resources.

• Meals: On average, a meal costs between USD 5 to USD 12, depending on the altitude and location. Prices are lower at places like Phakding and Namche Bazaar, while they rise in higher altitudes such as Lobuche and Gorak Shep.
• Accommodation: The cost for standard teahouse accommodation ranges from USD 5 to USD 25 per night. At lower altitudes, prices are on the lower end of the scale, while at higher altitudes, prices increase.

Additionally, there are extra costs for:

• Wi-Fi: USD 3 to USD 10 per hour.
• Hot showers: USD 3 to USD 10 per shower.
• Charging electronic devices: USD 2 to USD 5 per hour or per device.

Cost of Luxury Accommodations

For trekkers seeking luxury accommodations, there are luxury lodges available in certain villages along the trek, such as Namche Bazaar and Phakding. These lodges offer more comfortable rooms with attached bathrooms, hot showers, better amenities, and gourmet meals.

• Luxury lodges like Mountain Lodge of Nepal or Everest Summit Lodges can cost between USD 100 to USD 300 per night, depending on the location and the level of luxury offered. These lodges provide upgraded services such as private rooms, attached bathrooms, and even Wi-Fi and electricity included in the cost.

Choosing a luxury accommodation option will significantly increase your overall trek cost, but it provides added comfort, privacy, and a more premium experience.
