Trip Overview

Day Tour of Annapurna Base Camp in Helicopter is the fastest way to reach Annapurna Base Camp and take in the full glory of the Himalayas.

We begin early with a drive to Kathmandu airport for your chartered helicopter flight. As you lift off, the landscape shifts from the city’s edge to rolling green hills, dotted with traditional villages and layered rice terraces. Flying deeper into the mountains, we enter the Modi River gorge and soon open out into the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary.

Once we land at base camp, you’ll have 15 to 30 minutes to soak in the breathtaking views and enjoy a quick breakfast, surrounded by towering peaks like Annapurna I, Machapuchare, and Hiunchuli.

On the return journey, the helicopter flies over picturesque villages such as Chhomrong and Ghandruk, with sweeping views of Poon Hill in the distance. Back in Kathmandu, you’ll be transferred to your hotel to relax after this unforgettable mountain experience.
