      Day 1: Fly To Annapurna Base Camp

      Experience the grandeur of the Annapurna Base Camp with a luxury helicopter tour, offering a unique perspective of this stunning region. Located just 40 km north of Pokhara, Annapurna Base Camp sits in a high glacial basin, surrounded by the towering peaks of the Annapurna Himal range, with heights exceeding 7,000 meters. This tour provides an exceptional way to explore the base campโ€™s oval-shaped plateau, positioned at an altitude of over 4,130 meters (13,550 feet). From the air, youโ€™ll see river networks, glaciers, icefalls, moraines, lush woodlands, and tiny villages from a breathtaking viewpoint.


      Tour Overview


      Departure from Pokhara:

      Start your luxurious journey from Pokhara, known as the city of lakes. Board the helicopter at the domestic airport and take off, enjoying aerial views of the concrete jungle of Pokhara, interspersed with green patches and lakes. As you leave the city, marvel at the lush woodlands and scattered villages of central Nepal.


      Flight to Annapurna Base Camp:

      Fly directly over the Modi River valley, where youโ€™ll see various trails of the Annapurna Circuit. The flight will take you past the Mardi trek ridge trail on your right and the woodland-covered trails of Annapurna Base Camp on your left, with stunning views of snow-capped peaks ahead. Continue through the valley between Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre towards the base camp. Witness the Annapurna Sanctuary in all its glory, with panoramic views of Annapurna I, II, III, IV, and South, Gangapurna, Gandharvachuli, Dhaulagiri, Himchuli, Machhapuchhre, and other peaks, as well as glaciers and icefalls. The helicopter will land on a ridge at Annapurna Base Camp.


      At Annapurna Base Camp:

      Upon landing, take time to explore and soak in the vibrant energy of the mountains. After a brief exploration, the helicopter will return to Pokhara, offering views of old-growth forests, waterfalls, river networks, sparkling terraced farms, and dotted settlements. As you approach Pokhara, the lush landscape transitions back to the cityโ€™s concrete environment.
