Questions
Before you commit
Answer · 01 of 10
How does the Kathmandu–Lukla helicopter work — and what if weather blocks it?
The inbound Kathmandu–Lukla helicopter is included and weather-dependent. Your Trip Leader confirms the morning slot after the Day 1 briefing. If weather blocks the heli, the team presents suitable options. Return from Lukla is a scheduled mountain flight. Keep one or two buffer days after the trek. After return, extend with The Farm House (Nuwakot), Chitwan · Barahi, Bardiya · Tiger Tops, Lumbini · Hooke, or Pokhara · Sarangkot Barahi (2N·3D each).
