WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
In Nepalese, she’s called Sagarmatha, meaning ‘Goddess of the Sky’. We know her as the majestic and ever-powerful, Mount Everest. Experience a grand tour of the world’s tallest mountain with a private helicopter voyage over the Himalayas which culminates in a stop at Everest Base Camp. Here, guests will have an incredible opportunity to interact with courageous mountaineers, discovering what it takes to summit this beautiful beast.
MORE ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE
There are few other natural wonders to behold above that of the great Mount Everest. To experience her up close and personal is truly formidable, her power and majesty as tangible as the snow on her peaks.
Everest Base Camp stands at a whopping 5 300 meters above sea level, 3 500 metres shy of the summit. Although one cannot see the actual summit from Base Camp, there is a picturesque view of Nuptse and of the infamous Khumbu Icefall, renowned as one of the most treacherous sections of the Everest ascent.
As part of this exclusive experience, guests will have the opportunity to enjoy an hour-long stop at Everest Base Camp, relishing in the majestic views and chatting to mountaineers and sherpas alike. English-speaking guides, with over 15 years’ experience of trekking in the Himalayas, offer a wealth of knowledge and interesting stories about the mountain.
The private helicopter experience is led by experienced professionals from Trekking Guide Team Adventure and lasts three to four hours. This includes breakfast at the Everest View Hotel with stunning vistas, a visit to Everest Base Camp, transfers to and from Kathmandu airport and the helicopter flight.
Sagarmatha, Goddess of the Sky, Chomolungma, Mother of the Universe – whatever you choose to call her, there is one truth that unites all names: the grandeur of Everest is one that must be experienced to be believed.
