Langtang Helicopter Tour is a trip to the undisturbed region of Langtang tucked away peacefully in the majestic folds of the Langtang Himalayan Range. Home to a diverse cast of floras and faunas, the virgin trail diving through authentic ethnic hamlets displays a way of life that has been passed down from generation to generation, the tranquil unspoiled beauty of the region and the tranquility of Gosainkunda Lake. The mesmerizing grandeur of Annapurna I (8,091m), Shishapangma (8,013m), Langtang Lirung (7,227m), Dorje Lakpa (6,996m), Gaurishankar (7,134m), Ganesh Himal (7,422m), Langshisha Ri (7,134m), Yala Peak (5,500m) with their glistening peak and enchanting beauty is perhaps the front-runner amongst the natural delicacies the region has to offer. Removing the burden of having to trek days to just get a glimpse of the mountain tops the Langtang Helicopter Sightseeing tour is perhaps the best way to experience the breathtaking beauty of the Langtang region.
The journey begins from Kathmandu heading north chasing the striking Langtang Himalayan Range right to the heart of the region. The flight takes us over the tranquil Gosainkunda Lake with its icy shores and sparkling waters before heading towards the famous Kyanjin Gompa which is the only stop we take on this entire trip. We feast on a heavenly Himalayan breakfast in the company of the world's tallest mountains before once again heading back the Kathmandu. The four-hour journey is an excellent chance to witness the enthralling beauty of Langtang which to date has been preserved away from the trappings of modern society. Uncrowded trails, glacial lakes, captivating Himalayas, and lush green forests filled with rhododendron blooming in variable shades of red and pink all guided by the sea of prayer flags and stone cairns that adorn the pathways. The Langtang helicopter sightseeing tour has a little bit of everything for everyone.

Review
Nar phu valley trek with Kamal guide, perfect!
My partner and I went on a 9-day trek in the Nar and Phu Valley. Our Kamal guide was just perfect! Professional and very nice, he accompanied us along with the porter Prim throughout the itinerary, adapting it to our needs and desires. I don't think we could have fallen into better hands than Kamal, he promptly solved all the little problems we encountered, he was fantastic as was the porter Prim. Amazing experience thank you!
Nepal Social Treks Review
I’ve just completed the 15 day Everest Base Camp trek with Nepal Social Treks and can’t praise the company, guide & porter highly enough. My guide in particular, Lhakpa was an absolute star who could not do enough to make the time away as comfortable as possible. Considerate, knowledgeable, funny, kind & inspiring. I genuinely don’t think I could have completed the trek without their support! A lifetime ambition completed thanks :)
EBC by Gokyo
If you are planning to do the EBC, the Agency should be Nepal Social Trek and the Guide should be Santa Thabir Magar. Permanent communication during trekking and excellent coordination at all times. The alternative I recommend is Gokyo. Something heavier than the classic, but definitely extraordinary. Also the views of the great mountains during the circuit, are not to forget them
Ho prenotato il viaggio dall'italia. C'è stato qualche problema non dovuto all'agenzia perchè non sono partiti voli per giorni per l'everest e loro prontamente hanno sistemato tutto. Narayan, la mia guida e amrit il mio porter sono stati fantastici. Grazie grazie grazie
