Many of our climbers say that one of the best experiences of their entire expedition is taking a helicopter flight back down the Khumbu Valley and getting an aerial view of the trek, the peaks they’ve been climbing and the mighty Himalayan range. It is, without doubt, one of the most scenic, adventurous mountain flights in the world.
Further, while people initially think they will want to undertake the 3 day, 40 mile trek back down the valley, we’ve found that after a long expedition in mountains, the draw of civilisation, getting back to family and friends & enjoying that well-deserved beer can be irresistible.
We have a number of options available for you:
One Way Helicopter from Ama Dablam Base Camp to Lukla*
$2,995 USD
A helicopter flight from Ama Dablam Base Camp to Lukla avoiding the three day walk back down the valley. From Lukla you will catch a regularly scheduled fixed-wing plane back to Kathmandu either that day or the following. (Your domestic fixed wing flight is included in your expedition costs)
One Way Helicopter from Base Camp to Kathmandu*
$4,995 USD
For climbers who are keen to get back to Kathmandu and homeward bound as quickly and efficiently as possible at the end of the expedition, we can arrange a helicopter for you directly from Ama Dablam Base Camp all the way to Kathmandu.
