For a close-up of the majestic Everest, we take you on a ride to Lukla, the gateway to Everest. The gigantic structure of Everest aspires a deep sense of appreciation and respect for the beauty of nature.

The trip begins from Kathmandu on a clear early morning. We fly over Nagarkote, Dolalghat, Charikot, Jiri, Lamjura and Junbesi to Lukla. After a stopover at Lukla, fly through over Namche village, Gokyo valley and emerald Gokyo Lake to Lobuche. Eventually, Cho Yu, Amadablam, Thamserku, Lhotse, Nuptse and Everest reveal in their glory. This tour further takes you closer to Everest base camp.

On our return, we stop over at the famous Thyangboche Monastery or Syangboche hill for a brief visit. One of the very famous monasteries in the world Thyangboche monastery at 12,500 ft was initiated by Jatang Chotar [Lama Gulu] in 1919. From Thyangboche monastery, we fly back to Kathmandu with a short stopover at Lukla (for refueling).
