The quickest and most enjoyable way to explore the Annapurna region in a limited amount of time is by taking the Annapurna Base Camp Helicopter Tour with Landing. This tour is ideal for seniors, children, and those unable to handle hiking, allowing them to savor their holidays in the embrace of Mt. Annapurna (8091 m).
The helicopter tour provides breathtaking views of Nepal’s highest peaks such as Annapurna I (8091 m), Annapurna II (7937 m), Dhaulagiri (8167 m), Fishtail (6993 m), and more.
During the tour, you will pass through Ghandruk, a renowned Gurung Village known for its culture and authentic cuisine where visitors can take a break for breakfast or lunch. The final stop on this incredible journey is at ABC camp which offers stunning panoramic views of the entire Annapurna Ranges along with other summits. Here you can indulge in local dishes, capture photographs, and feel the cold breeze and fresh air before departing.
Sherpa Village Trek ensures that their ABC helicopter tour provides an exceptional experience without any obstacles at affordable costs while also prioritizing traveler safety by providing the necessary oxygen supply and first aid equipment if required.
Our transportation will be ready to pick you up from the hotel at 6 am, so please ensure that you are prepared by 5:50 am. The vehicle will take you to Pokhara Airport for check-in and boarding.
Upon arrival in Pokhara, the airport officer will verify your tickets and documents.
After completing the necessary formalities, you will board a helicopter to fly over ABC. From above, you'll enjoy an impressive aerial perspective of Pokhara and its charming human settlements. The sight of Phewa Lake from this vantage point is truly captivating.
In addition, you'll be treated to breathtaking panoramic views of the Annapurna Range, Fishtail, Dhaulagiri, Manasalu, Lamjung Himal and other mountain peaks. This flight offers an unparalleled opportunity to witness some of the world's highest peaks.
As the journey unfolds, you'll observe beautiful terrace farming on hillsides and experience transitions in vegetation from dense forests of Rhododendrons to sparse pine trees as well as changes in terrain from verdant landscapes to glacier-covered regions.
ABC is nestled within the majestic Himalayas, offering a breathtaking 360-degree view of Annapurna-I, Annapurna South, Himchuli, and Fishtail from an elevation of 4,130 m. It is a popular destination for tourists and trekkers who come to witness stunning sunrises and sunsets that cast the mountain peaks in golden hues. Visitors typically spend around 45 minutes at ABC capturing photos/videos and taking in the beauty of the Himalayas.
After spending 45 minutes exploring the Annapurna Base Camp, we will return to Pokhara by flight. Upon arrival at Pokhara airport, transportation will be provided to take you directly to your hotel.
The helicopter tour to Annapurna Base Camp from Pokhara is brief and highly popular, offering an affordable option for visitors. The serene atmosphere and breathtaking views of towering peaks over 8000 meters such as Machhapuchhre, Himchuli, Dhaulagiri, and the Annapurna mountain range will refresh you with renewed vitality.
It was my initial experience on a helicopter tour, and I enjoyed breathtaking views of the Himalayas, including Mount Annapurna and other mountains in the area. The booking process was simple and the check-in staff were friendly. The pilot was highly experienced, and the ground handling staff were also very amicable. Every effort was made to ensure an incredible experience! If you are considering a helicopter tour to Annapurna base camp with landing, I highly recommend Sherpa Village Trek.
It was an excellent experience. We were fortunate to have waited only 20 minutes before taking off. Seeing the towering Himalayas from a bird’s eye view is truly breathtaking. If you’re considering a helicopter tour, definitely consider the Sherpa Village Trek – it’s surprisingly affordable compared to other flights I’ve taken.
We contacted Sherpa Village Trek last minute but they were very responsive and took care of everything flawlessly. We didn’t have the time to do the actual trek but a helicopter tour was the next best thing, so we jumped at the chance. The Sherpa Village team ensured that we had a great time and for that, we would like to thank them sincerely.
