Overview
The Annapurna Heli Tour is a one-day scenic flight from Kathmandu for travellers who want to see the Annapurna region without a multi-day trek. The flight crosses the Himalayan foothills and offers aerial perspectives of the Annapurna massif, including Annapurna I, Machhapuchhre and Dhaulagiri when visibility allows.
The exact route, flight time and landing plan depend on weather, permits, aircraft payload and the pilot’s safety assessment. A landing is included only when an approved location is available and conditions are suitable; no specific landing point can be guaranteed in advance.
Arrive prepared for changing mountain temperatures and follow the crew’s briefing throughout the tour. Confirm the final schedule, aircraft arrangement, passenger weight requirements and package inclusions with Exotic Mountains before booking.
