We booked the Everest Heli Tour through Magical Nepal as we did a hike with them prior. Saugat was super easy to communicate with, kept in contact about the weather to ensure we would be able to see Everest and organised transport to and from our hotel to the airport. Absolutely loved this experience, if you are going to Nepal you have to see Everest right?? Oh and wait till you get to see the mountain up close! It’s amazing.

What an exceptional operation Pradeep runs for his guests! The helicopter tour was absolutely amazing and it opened my eyes to all of the trekking possibilities that are in the area, being able to get a bird’s eye view of the paths and villages. The mountains are breathtaking to see, there is nowhere else that can come close to the experience of being surrounded by Mt. Everest and its neighbors. Our tour took us up to ~ 20k feet, where we landed and got out for a few minutes (the altitude!) and then we went back down to the “highest altitude hotel in the world” for lunch. We had a pleasant unexpected surprise on the way back down (two rides up and back) and had an unexpected 2 hour layover in the quaint village of Lukla, due to an emergency rescue of some trekkers trying to summit Everest. Pradeep arranged a tour of this little airport town which ended up being one of my favorite stops on the trip! It was a true Sherpa village that caters to trekkers in the most lovely setting. I did not want to leave this place! Lastly, Pradeep hooked us up with a massage team where we enjoyed 2 hours of pampering and a 30% discount in Kathmandu. Your needs will be met working with Pradeep and his team.

Very cool way to see Everest up close as well as the country side of Nepal. Pradeep was so great to work with. He coordinated 7 of us and manages changing weather forecasts and last minute trekker rescues that require helicopter access that takes priority. We were delayed in Lukla due to these rescues and Pradeep arranged and covered the cost of a village tour. He was also available for other questions and assistance after the tour day. Highly recommend.
You won't regret it!

I was so scared but it was AMAZING. Had great experience. It was absolutely breathtaking and definitely a bucket list thing to do. We stopped got out at base camp and then had breakfast at hotel Everest view. Our pilot was great and it was worth every cent.

We booked a trip to Nepal with another company that I used 12 years ago. The communication was terrible. I found Pradeep when trying to book an Everest base camp flight. He was AMAZING from the first whatsapp. He communicated quickly and clearly and help us make our Everest dream a reality. Pradeep continued to support our trip (9 women) by helping to schedule massages and other adventures. I highly recommend Pradeep for any trip you are planning in the Himalayas. Thank you Pradeep! 🙏
Absolutely AMAZING!

It was one of the best experiences in my life! I had never flown on an helicopter before, and I always felt completely safe during the whole trip, the pilot was very experienced and also made the role of a guide: he told us the names of the mountains we could see during the trip and also provided us with a lot of interesting information! The views are completely out of this world, and the Magical Nepal made this experience even better by picking me up at my place in Kathmandu and taking me back: very responsible and trustful company! I uploaded some pictures so that you can have an idea of the amazing experience I had!
