Description

Namche Bazaar Trek and Helicopter Tour is a combination of a trek and a helicopter tour of the Everest region.
On this trail, you’ll not only be astonished by the beauty of the mountains but the people you meet. In a world where traditions and cultures are vanishing, here you’ll witness rare beauty, great strength, and extreme fragility. On the roof of a world where scenery has not changed for centuries. Explore ancient monasteries and learn about the wonderful legends, rooted in Tibetan lamaism. Clinging to mountains side tattered prayer flags with inscriptions dance as the wind ravages on hillsides and high mountains carrying scattered prayers to heaven. A land of few people and many legends. At the foothills of the Himalayas where people are rich in heart and culture. Capturing your imagination.
