I recently had the pleasure of booking a single-day Everest Base Camp helicopter tour with Amigo Treks and Expedition, and I cannot recommend it enough. The entire experience was truly unforgettable, and I was blown away by the professionalism, expertise, and hospitality of the Amigo team. From the moment I booked the tour, I felt well-informed and taken care of. The team was responsive, friendly, and eager to answer any questions I had about the itinerary, safety procedures, and logistics. On the day of the tour, everything went smoothly, and I felt completely at ease thanks to the knowledgeable and experienced pilot and crew. The helicopter flight itself was breathtaking, with stunning views of the Himalayas and remote villages. I was amazed at the beauty of the surrounding mountains and valleys, and landing at the Kala Patthar viewpoint was a highlight of the day. The views of Mount Everest and its neighboring peaks were simply awe-inspiring, and I felt so lucky to have the opportunity to visit such a spectacular location. After our visit to Kala Patthar, we flew to Kongde for breakfast and had the chance to interact with the locals and learn about their culture and way of life. The breakfast was delicious, and the hospitality of the locals was heartwarming. It was a fantastic opportunity to experience the local cuisine and hospitality, and it made the day even more special. Overall, my experience with Amigo Treks and Expedition was exceptional. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring that my experience was safe, enjoyable, and unforgettable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to witness the beauty of the Himalayas and soak up the culture of the local communities in the Khumbu region. Thank you, Amigo Treks and Expedition, for an unforgettable experience!

I recently had the pleasure of booking an Everest Base Camp helicopter tour with Amigo Treks and Expedition, and it was truly an incredible experience. The tour began early in the morning, with a private car arriving at my hotel to transport me to Kathmandu's airport. After completing the airport formalities, I met with the captain and boarded the helicopter, ready for an adventure of a lifetime. As we took off, we were greeted with spectacular views of green hills, and after passing through Dolakha village, we arrived at Jiri village. The helicopter ride continued over the Lamjura-La Pass, which was covered in dense rhododendron forests. After 45 minutes, we arrived at Lukla, with breathtaking views of the Himalayan mountain ranges. I was amazed by the world's smallest runway and the local Sherpa culture and way of life at the airport. After refueling at Lukla, we flew to Kala Patthar, which offered breathtaking views of the surrounding Himalayan mountain ranges. We landed at Kalapatthar, where we were able to take in the stunning views of Mount Everest up close. It was truly an unforgettable moment that will stay with me forever. After our time at Kalapatthar, we flew to Khongde for breakfast, where we were treated to a delicious meal with a stunning view. The scenery was breathtaking, and the food was a perfect way to refuel before our flight back to Kathmandu. On the way back, we made a short stop at Lukla, which was another highlight of the trip. The landing was smooth, and we were able to take in the views of the Lukla airstrip, which is considered one of the most dangerous airstrips in the world. Our pilot, Prajjwal K.C., was experienced and knowledgeable and made the experience even more enjoyable. He provided us with information about the region and made sure we were safe and comfortable throughout the trip. The entire Amigo Treks and Expeditions team was friendly and accommodating, and they made sure that we had a fantastic experience. Overall, the Everest Base Camp helicopter tour with Amigo Treks and Expeditions was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I would highly recommend to anyone. The stunning scenery and incredible views of Mount Everest were unforgettable, and the entire trip was organized to perfection. I will cherish this experience for years to come, and I look forward to booking with Amigo Treks and Expeditions again in the future.

We chose Nepal for our first trip in 2022, and a visit to the Everest Base Camp was a must for us. Amigo Treks & Expedition was chosen because of its seriousness, flexibility, and care. It involves flying a helicopter above 5000 meters, which necessitates the use of a dependable operator. This trip was incredible! I would highly recommend this experience to anyone. The views are incredible, and the helicopter ride is enjoyable and safe. We chose a tour that included Gokyo Lake, which was fantastic and well worth the extra money. I can't recommend Nepal enough; the people are friendly, and a visit to the everest is a must. Niti and his team at Amigo Treks & Expedition are the best at this.

I took a helicopter tour of Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar. Amazing experience, breathtaking views; you won't be able to put your camera down. Our helicopter adventure took us from Kathmandu to Lukla (refueling), to Syangboche, to Kala Patthar (highest point, 17,500 feet), to the Everest View Hotel (breakfast), and back to Kathmandu. The views from Syangboche, Kala Patthar, and the Everest View Hotel are spectacular. Niti's communication and professionalism put me at ease with this company.

I travel from the US to India once or twice a year for work, and sometimes I will take a short vacation from India to an area I would not normally go to. This past October I decided I would travel to Nepal for a few days of vacation after concluding my work in Bangalore. I decided I wanted to see some of the Himalayas, including the Everest region if possible. An internet search showed the possibility of an Everest Base Camp helicopter tour, which sounded perfect for a short 4-day trip to Nepal. I contacted about 10 different trekking and touring companies, but Amigo Trekking was one of only about 3-4 places that responded back to my inquiry. Right away, Niti Sharma was very helpful, explaining what the possibilities were for me and my time constraints. When I stated to her (and the others) that the original price was too high for me, she was the only one who came back with an alternative idea that also was actually better, as the weather in Lukla is unreliable and I would need to spend more time out there than I originally anticipated. She suggested that instead of me taking a helicopter from Kathmandu and back in one day that I fly to Lukla on a small plane, stay the night in Lukla, then return the next day to Kathmandu. This gave me a much larger window to fly the helicopter on the Everest tour around any possible weather issues that might arise. And this alternative also met my price budget better at the same time, so I decided to go with it. She was totally correct! In the end, all aspects of the trip were great and I saw everything I wanted to see (and more - I loved the experience of flying in and out of Lukla on a plane), but I did need the extra day due to rapidly changing weather conditions in Lukla. So in the end, I would highly recommend working with Niti at Amigo Trekking for a trip like this one. She designed the perfect 2-day trip within my budget, all arrangements were correctly made, and I had a fantastic experience that I will never forget. Thanks, Niti and Amigo

We did Everest Base Camp helicopter tour on September 2017. It was very unforgettable experience and wonderful trip to the base camp at very short time. The pilots & other staff were friendly and the service was great. We recommend Amigo Treks & Expedition for Helicopter Tour.
