See the Langtang valley in a single day instead of a week on foot. We collect you from your Kathmandu hotel, you fly by helicopter north up the Langtang valley to Kyanjin Gompa at 3,870 m, with Langtang Lirung above you, and you are back in Kathmandu afterwards.
We run this tour from October to May, the main flying seasons. From June to September monsoon cloud makes the flight unreliable, so we do not sell it then; tell us your dates and we will suggest another tour, such as our Langtang trek.
The helicopter is chartered for your group alone, up to four guests, on every option, so you never share with strangers. The price per person falls with each extra guest, up to four. The tour includes a landing at Kyanjin Gompa, with time on the ground that depends on the weather and the season, usually up to about 30 minutes. The pilot makes the final call on the day, and if the weather stops a landing we tell you before you fly. Winter mornings in the valley are very cold.
Kyanjin Gompa is at 3,870 m, about 2,500 m higher than Kathmandu, and a day flight gives you no time to acclimatise. Tell us about any heart, lung or blood-pressure condition before you book.
The tour starts and ends in Kathmandu, with hotel pick-up and drop-off. Your Kathmandu hotel is not included, but we can arrange it.
Every booking supports the Nagarjun Learning Center, our school in Saldum. The Everest Holiday is a family company founded in 2016, from three generations of guiding in the Himalayas.
