Annapurna Base Camp Helicopter Landing Tour - 1 Day

Duration

1 Day

Age Range 10 - 70  years
Destination Nepal
Group Size 1 - 15

Annapurna Helicopter Sightseeing tour is focused to those travelers who loves mountain and have limited time. You will land at Annapurna Base Camp. If we could count the number of trekking routes evolving around the Annapurna Region on our fingers we are pretty sure we would need a few other pairs of hands. A region home to the rarest of flora, fauna, and wildlife, tantalizing Himalayas, stunning landscapes beyond imagination, and the rich history revolving around the region.

Annapurna Region is not only the oldest and most widely trekked areas of the nation but also home to some of the world's most exciting Himalayas like the unconquered Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,997m), Annapurna I (8,091m), Annapurna South (7,219m), Gangapurna (7,455m), Hiunchuli (6,441m) all belonging to a long list of majestic peaks which surround the region. Oh! And did we mention this all can be done in a day? Annapurna Helicopter Sightseeing Tour takes you to the base camp of Mt. Annapurna (8091m) and the display of the Himalayas is simply indescribable. 

The journey to one of the most thrilling adventures can begin either from the tranquil city of Pokhara. The journey from Kathmandu heads parallel to the northern Himalayan range gradually heading east towards Annapurna Base Camp. The hustling and bustling city of Pokhara disappears beneath us and the noises fade away as we take off toward our Himalayan adventure.

The only stop on this trip will be directly at Annapurna Base Camp, once content with the aerial view of the snow capped summits. Ample time for breakfast will be provided before returning to Kathmandu where the trip ends. On the other end, the journey from Pokhara takes us north and directly towards Annapurna mastiff crossing the village and himalayas. No matter the route the Annapurna Region is perhaps one of the most enjoyable journeys one could undertake mesmerizingly beautiful in every aspect and from up above its beauty is magnified tenfold. 

Nepal Social Treks and Expedition introduces this tour with great pleasure and promise. We, along with our proficient team, are dedicated to providing the best experience to our clients and in doing so do not leave any stone unturned.

Mera peak trekking

I joined the 17-days mera peak trekking through Nepal Social Treks. All the plans and schedules are good and strong, including the acclimatisation/rest day or before&after the trekking! My guide Pasang Jangbu Sherpa and my porter Samuel are very supportive from all aspects through the whole trek from day to night. I have experienced a bit of altitude sickness in the trip but my guide got the experience to handle my body condition which makes me more confident in the whole trip. This is a fantastic experience and I will definitely choose this company again for my next nepal trip! Thanks for everything!

Upper Mustang and Tiji Festival amazing experience in Tibetan culture

I had an amazing experience in Upper Mustang with Nepal Social Trek, they are profissional with large experience in many treks around Nepal. I been for about 2 weeks with their guide ( Santabir ) and one of their porters ( Nishan ) who were also extremely professional, knowledgeable and warm hearted, we went to experience the Tiji Festival in Lo Manthang and it was incredible an unique experience worth every step of the trekking in the Nepali Mustang desert with amazing landscapes and interesting villages. Most important I was safe and taken care of everything by Nepal Social Treks and their guide and porter, if I have to recommend an agency for you do book me your treks in Nepal i highly recommend Nepal Social Treks. Thanks for everything guys you will be with me in my memories and i learned a lot with you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Highly recommend Nepal social treks!

We did the Annapurna circuit trek with Bishnu as our guide and Nabin and Suman as our porters. It was an incredible experience, amazing views and rewarding trekking getting to experience the nepalese culture along with way. Bishnu was very knowledgeable about the mountains, preventing altitude sickness, and was always there to help us with our crampons, poles, or anything else we needed. We were very well fed/ fuelled and he kept us laughing along the way with his funny sayings. We were always in accommodation with amazing views too. Nabin and Suman our porters, hard to summarise how incredibly hard they both work all while always having a smile on their face. We could not have done the Trek without them and are forever grateful for how hard they work. Definitely recommend going with nepal social treks it was an incredible experience.

This tour was amazing!! 10/10 would recommend. All of my communication with them was prompt and very helpful. For my trek to Khopra Danda it ended up only being myself and my very experienced guide, Lakpa Sherpa, and I felt so taken care of beginning to end. I did not bring enough luggage for a porter to be necessary so I wore my larger backpack during the trek and my guide carried his pack and my day pack. We also made some adjustments to our route due to weather conditions and what my guide thought would provide the best experience and I was grateful we did! The accommodations along the way provided everything you could need and the food was filling and delicious. The hotels in Pokhara and Kathmandu were much nicer than I expected and the taxi trips to and from airports were all well organized and made the trip very easy and comfortable. If you are flying between Kathmandu and Pokhara and want the sky view of the mountains, ask to sit on the right side of the plane when flying to Pokhara and the left side when flying to Kathmandu. You cover a lot of different terrain and climates when trekking in this region! The gear list that Nepal Social Treks sent was very thorough and helpful. I used Aquatabs and a filtering water bottle for drinking water and it worked very well the whole trek and saves the waste of purchasing water along the way. There is power and wifi essentially everywhere you go. I got a SIM card in Kathmandu (the amazing receptionist at the Temple Suites Hotel helped me out!) and it worked well throughout the trek. I would highly recommend Nepal Social Treks and am already thinking about when I can return to Nepal! Thank you!! :)

Greetings from Indonesia! I recently completed the EBC Trek, guided by Mr. Ramji and assisted by Bbag, our porter. The journey was truly amazing, and the views were absolutely spectacular. Mr. Ramji proved to be a caring and exceptional guide. His patience and encouragement greatly helped me, especially when I almost gave up due to altitude sickness in Namche Bazaar and Tengboche. Thanks to Mr Ram, Bbag, Nepal Social Team's and Mr. Basu's support, we successfully made it to Base Camp. I first discovered Nepal Social through the Lonely Planet guidebook Trekking in Nepal Himalaya. From that moment, I knew they came highly recommended for trekkers embarking on their adventure in Nepal. Every aspect of the journey was flawlessly arranged — from seamless logistics to welcoming stays at comfortable 3-star hotels in Thamel, Kathmandu. With their professional service and meticulous attention to detail, Nepal Social guarantees a trekking experience that is not only memorable but completely worry-free.
