The Annapurna Base Camp Helicopter Tour is the quickest yet most effective way to reach the Annapurna Sanctuary and appreciate the entirety of its brilliance. On the Annapurna Helicopter Tour, you will fly high above the pleasant picturesque of Pokhara valley and onto the laps of the Annapurna Himalayan range and ever-present great Machhapuchhre Himal ‘Fish Tail’ (6997m).

Brief Trip Description

We offer you two major choices for this trip, one from the capital (Kathmandu) to the Annapurna base camp and the other from Pokhara. If willing to take the flight from the capital, then the total trip duration would be of around 2 to 2.5 hours. This includes the first flight to Pokhara and then toward the Annapurna Sanctuary.

Similarly, for the Heli trip from Pokhara, the total extent would be of around 1.5 hours. It is almost 20 minutes of a helicopter ride to the Annapurna Base Camp. The actual trip begins and ends in this scenic holiday spot of Pokhara.

On the trip, we fly across to the Annapurna Base Camp at an altitude of 4031 meters. On the Heli flight, you can witness the panoramic view of the gigantic mountain range. Apart from the Annapurna I, the view incorporates Annapurna South (7,219 m), Gangapurna (7,454m), Annapurna II (7,937 m), Annapurna III (7,555 m), Annapurna IV (7,525 m) and the ever-present Machhapuchhre Himal (6,997 m). The name fishtail suggests its twin summit top that overwhelms the Annapurna range.
