MOUNT EVEREST NEPAL & KATHMANDU

MOUNT EVEREST,  NEPAL & KATHMANDU – inkludert det beste av HIMALAYA: 

Visste du at det var mulig å ta en weekend – på verdens tak, på toppen av verden? Ja, rett og slett ta en helge-tur i basecamp ved verdens høyeste og mestberømte fjell, selveste kongen sjøl; Mount Everest! Med oss er det mulig. Med oss er nemlig ( nesten) alt mulig. La oss ta deg med på en weekend du aldri vil glemme! Når resten av gutta på jobben i lunsjen på mandag spør om du også var på hytta i Trysil, kan du uanfektet fortelle dem at «Nei i helga tok jeg en svipptur til Mount Everest»

Vanlige spørsmål rundt denne turen er: Er det ikke farlig? Er det i det hele tatt mulig å oppleve Mount Everest uten å sette av en million kroner, bruke 1-2 år på klatretrening og dessuten sette av 1-2 måneder på ulike steder i høyden for å unngå høydesyke? Ja, vi har funnet løsningen. I samarbeid med de mest profesjonelle reiseoperatører i Himalaya Nepal, India, Tibet og Mount Everest-området har vi funnet en løsning: Deersom du ikke går i oppoverbakke og blir sliten av å gå i høyden i fjellet, vil du ikke oppleve høydesyke. Her kan du ta et helikopter fra Kathmandu, og lande på basecamp Mt Everest, og se verdens høyeste fjell med egne øyne, og være i miljøet til verdens beste klatrere i en hel dag, der du teoretisk kan ta gruppebilde med gutta fra jobben i dress på basecamp med verdens høyeste fjell, Mt Everest i bakgrunnen! Et minne for livet både som julekort, til firma-siden og til å ha på kontorpulten resten av livet! 

Det er nemlig DET våre turer handler om: Vi har selv reiste vrden rundt og opplevd alle verdens kontinenter og gått på ski til Nordpolen og seilt til «Sydpolen» ( Antarktis) flere ganger, og vi vil vise deg verdens råeste steder og reise-opplevelser!

Unn deg verdns kanskje aller råeste firma-tur – en «lang-weekend» på Mount Everest. Ettersom dette innebærer en flytur som tar litt tid, er det fornuftig å legge inn det beste av fjellkjedene i Tibet/Himalaya og en omvisning i nasjonalparkene rundt Kathmandu i samme slengen. Og det gjør vi selvsagt, Derfor er turen en ukes tid totalt. Du kan fly til India med direktefly fra Oslo, og deretter innenlandsfly til Kathmandu-området. En flytur med småfly der du ser toppen av Mount Everest og alle de høyeste fjell i verden på samme flytur, legges også inn. Hos oss får du det beste av det beste, og alt det som er verdt å oppleve på alle reiser – også denn reisen – til verdens tak! 

Denne turen inneholder alt du har drømt om og mer til. med ane ord: Det aller beste av alle disse steder:

DETAILS FOR THE OPTIONAL ACTIVITIES

Optional 01: Helicopter chartered tour to Everest region

During Everest Heli tour you are taken to see Mt. Everest from a close quarter. It gives you a quick look at the Everest region and finally allows one to land at Everest Base Camp or Kalapathar (5,545 meters) (Subject to fair weather Conditions).

The tour starts with flying east from Kathmandu to Everest area, the beautiful Sherpa village and gateway to Mt. Everest, and lands at Lukla (2860 metres) [Approx. 50 min]. After fueling in Lukla, fly towards Everest Base Camp area and you will land at Kalapathar [Approx. 25 min]. The helicopter flight goes over the Tengboche, Dingboche, Gorakshep and Khumbu glacier. 

The tour allows some of the best mountain views and scenery. You will be given a maximum of 5 minutes of landing time at Kalapathar for quick photography due to the altitude threat. On the way back, there will be a 30–40-minute breakfast stop at Syangboche (Hotel Everest view) or at Konde (Konde Hotel). Both these places (Syangboche & Konde), allow an excellent view of Mt. Everest and its range but nothing comparable. Later fly back to Lukla for refueling and then back to Kathmandu. 

IMP: 01 helicopter can carry up to 4-5 Pax and 1 captain or maximum 500 kg weight up to Syangboche or Konde.  From here due to high altitude, if we have 4-5 pax we have to run 2 shuttle flights by splitting the body weight, 250 kg on an average. All 4- 5 pax will fly from Kathmandu to Syangboche or Konde together, then 2- 3 pax will be dropped and the remaining pax will be taken to land at Kalapathar. Then, the helicopter will be back with the clients and drop them for breakfast and the remaining pax will be picked to land at Kalapathar.

Total Duration of the tour:  Approx. 04 – 05 hrs.
