Description
Take a guided helicopter flight over the Annapurna region of Nepal. Pass by various scenic highlights, including various mountains, gorges, and peaks.
After pickup from Pokhara, you will depart from Pokhara Airport for a 20 minute flight to Annapurna Base Camp, flying parallel to the northern Himalayan range. Whilst in the air, you will fly over small villages and contrasting landscapes.
Annapurna Base Camp is surrounded by several high mountains in the Annapurna region. It is there that you can find the deepest gorge, a conservation area, and scattered traditional local settlements.
You will be given a maximum of 15-30 minutes of time once at the Annapurna Base Camp for a tea/breakfast break, since staying at such an altitude for longer that this amount of time could pose as a serious high altitude threat.
You will soon be on your return journey, once again taking in the views of Mt. Annapurna, Mt. Dhaulagiri and several climbing peaks. You will land safely back at Pokhara Airport at the conclusion of your experience and then be dropped back to Pokhara.
