Fly from Kathmandu over Mount Everest for about 1 hour in the air, with pickup in Thamel and a same-day return, typically 2-3 hours.

“I didnt have the experience as they didnt turn up to pick me up at 5.30am. I gave up after 1.5 hours of waiting. I contacted the company through support and 3 hours later no response. Viator also asked the company to contact me whilst I was waiting. It was the only time I had to do this experience and devastated and so upset I didnt get to do it.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 8 reviews · 1 hour · from $250

See Everest from a pressurized Jetstream 41 in 45 minutes from Kathmandu, with a guaranteed window seat and Himalayan peak views.

“Visibility had been low for days, the tour should have been cancelled prior to the day of the tour. Instead we sat at the airport for 4 hours waiting and hoping to be able to do the flight. We even sat on a bus, waiting to be brought to the plane. Unfortunately, this never happened and the tour was cancelled due to poor visibility. It was an incredible letdown and a huge waste of a day.”
