Yes I only had just over 2 days in Kathmandu, making Kathmandu a stopover on the way home to Ireland. After research, the best value package seemed to be offered by Adventure Himalaya Circuit and an itinerary put together by Prakash Lamsal that gave me the opportunity to enjoy a fulfilling 2 days in and around the capital. With the aid of Prakash and his team I was able to visit Kathmandu valley and to experience a 'once in a lifetime' plane flight up around Mount Everest. You did well Prakash and thanks for the special Everest Helicopter tour package at a reasonable price. My family has a desire to join me on my next visit to Nepal, and we will certainly think of you to arrange our program when the time comes.

Yes I only had just over 2 days in Kathmandu, making Kathmandu a stopover on the way home to Ireland. After research, the best value package seemed to be offered by Adventure Himalaya Circuit and an itinerary put together by Prakash Lamsal that gave me the opportunity to enjoy a fulfilling 2 days in and around the capital. With the aid of Prakash and his team I was able to visit Kathmandu valley and to experience a 'once in a lifetime' plane flight up around Mount Everest. You did well Prakash and thanks for the special Everest Helicopter tour package at a reasonable price. My family has a desire to join me on my next visit to Nepal, and we will certainly think of you to arrange our program when the time comes.

We have travelled to Nepal in April 2019. We came for Himalayas trekking, to see the roof of the world. Because of our limited time we decided to go private Everest helicopter tour with a guys from Adventure Himalaya Circuit.  This helicopter tour helped us a lot to explore Nepal Himalayas trekking and diverse landscapes of Nepal. Guiding was perfect and cost was affordable. They organized all documents, Permit, tickets and everything very well.  We can't rate you guy enough. Thank you guys so much for making my experience one that i will never forget.

I am an adventure trekker so i made a plan to do Everest Base Camp trekking in Nepal with my wife. For the Everest it's takes minium 14 days but i had not that much time. So, finally we decided to do Everest Helicopter tour which organized by Prakash Lamsal. The flight to Everest base camp was really incredible and we enjoyed a lot with surrounding many small white picks from windown. That moments in Everest Base Camp was out of exception and i was felt really proud to stand face to face with giant Everest Mountain. I will forever miss that cherished moments and more thanks to Adventure Himalaya Circuit trekking company and team for this lifetime momories. Would definitely recommend this company and assure to visit again for Annapurna base camp trek next year for sure.
