See the World from a New Height

This tour is the ultimate adventure, where the helicopter becomes your personal dragon and the Himalayas become your playground. You will soar above the clouds like a roc from oriental fairy tales and see Everest so close that you can almost touch its icy crown.

Tour Description

Touch Everest

Forget about boring flights and tiring walks! This tour is the quintessence of adventure, where the helicopter will become your personal dragon, and the Himalayas will be your playground. You will soar above the clouds like a Rukh bird from Eastern fairy tales, and see Everest so close that you can almost touch its icy crown.

But this is not just an air tour. You will make a foray to the base camp of Ama Dablam, where climbers from all over the world prepare to climb this legendary peak. You will breathe the thin air that the heroes breathe and feel the pulse of the mountains, which beats in unison with your heart. On this way to the peaks of the world, we will practice yoga and meditation to harmonize the body and spirit, tune into the rhythm of the mountains and discover new sources of energy in ourselves.

Infinite space

You will visit Namche Bazaar, the capital of the Sherpas, where life is in full swing, like in an anthill, and every house is a story. You will see Buddhist monasteries, where monks keep ancient knowledge, and hear mantras that merge with the wind.

You will walk along the paths that caravans have made for centuries and see landscapes that will make you forget about the existence of words. You will feel like a part of this majestic world, where man is just a grain of sand in an infinite space.

Go beyond the usual reality

And that’s not all! Returning to Kathmandu by helicopter will be the cherry on the cake of this adventure. You will fly over snow-capped peaks, see glaciers that look like frozen rivers, and feel like a real conqueror of the sky. A free day in Kathmandu will allow you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of this ancient city, visit its temples and palaces, try local cuisine and buy souvenirs to remember your unforgettable trip.

This tour is not just a journey, it is a challenge to yourself, it is an opportunity to go beyond your capabilities and see the world from a new height. It is a chance to become part of a legend that will live forever.

Detailed Itinerary

Day

ARRIVAL IN NEPAL

Kathmandu - magic

Upon landing in Kathmandu, you will immediately feel like you have entered another dimension. The city will greet you with a chaotic dance of rickshaws, the smell of incense, and the smiles of locals who seem to have come down from the canvases of ancient mandalas. Our guides will guide you through the labyrinths of reality and introduce you to other expedition participants.

Kathmandu is not just a city, it is a living organism, pulsating with the energy of Gods and demons. Here, every temple is an antenna tuned to cosmic frequencies, every stupa is an accumulator of karmic energy, and every alley is a portal to the past. Swayambhunath and Pashupatinath are not just attractions, but places of power where you can reboot your internal program.

In the evening we will gather around the common table to discuss the upcoming trip and share expectations, this will be a welcome dinner. Kathmandu is the entry point to the Himalayan matrix.

Day

SIGHTSEEING IN KATHMANDU

City of Gods

Today we will go on a journey through the cultural space of Kathmandu, where each temple is a portal to the past, and each stupa is an accumulator of karmic energy. We will visit ancient temples and monasteries, where time has frozen like resin, and where you can hear the whispers of the gods.

You will see Swayambhunath, the monkey temple where, according to legend, Buddha himself meditated, and Pashupatinath, the Shiva temple where cremation rituals are held, reminding us of the frailty of life. Kathmandu is home to the goddess Kumari, a living embodiment of divinity in the body of a little girl. Locals believe that seeing the Goddess dooms you to happiness for life.

You will stroll through the bustling markets of Kathmandu, where every street is a kaleidoscope of colors and smells, and every trader is a storyteller ready to tell you an amazing story. This day is not just an excursion, it is an immersion into a world where reality intertwines with myths, where the past and the present merge, creating a unique atmosphere.

What makes Namche Bazaar unique is its location. The village is built like an amphitheatre on the mountainside, with stunning views of snow-capped peaks like Kangtega and Thamserku from every corner. In the evenings, Namche Bazaar comes alive in a new way. Tourists and legendary climbers gather in cozy cafes, sharing stories and plans.
