Everest Experience Mountain Flight Tour

Embark on one of the most exclusive flights over the Himalayas on the Everest mountain flight. It is one of the most affordable, comfortable, and quickest ways to enjoy the beauty of the Himalayan mountains. People of all ages can participate in the Everest mountain flight.

Everest mountain flight is an hour-long commercial flight designed to let travelers experience the beauty of the Himalayas from the sky.

The flight takes off from Kathmandu, flies over the Langtang Himalayas, and heads towards Mt. Everest (8,849 m), the highest mountain in the world. During the Everest mountain flight, you will see the 20 most stunning mountains in the world and numerous peaks & hills.

The Everest mountain flight is one of the best ways to travel across Nepal's mountains. We highly recommend it if you cannot trek or have a free morning in Kathmandu.

Some of the most experienced airlines operate the Everest mountain flights, so you do not have to worry about safety. You will be flying with the best.

Suppose you want your Everest flight to be more immersive and wish to land for a few minutes. In that case, we recommend our Everest base camp helicopter tour with a landing program.

It is more costly than the Everest mountain flight. Still, you can enjoy multiple landings and breakfast at Hotel Everest View before returning. The EBC helicopter tour is a four-hour program.

Everest mountain flight has long offered travelers who cannot trek to Everest base camp the first clear panorama of the Himalayas. The flight shows Nepal's unique geography well.

On the flight, you'll receive a brochure listing all the significant mountains you can see. The air hostesses will also help you identify the mountains.
