Customer Reviews

  • I wanted to visit Everest Base Camp, but I didn’t have much time to spend in Nepal. So, I contacted Mr. Dhruba Dharel, and he suggested that I could still experience Everest by taking a private helicopter tour.

    I decided to go for it—and it turned out to be an absolutely incredible tour. From the helicopter, I witnessed the best views of Mount Everest and the entire Everest region. The scenic beauty from the sky was breathtaking and something I’ll never forget.

    One of the highlights of the trip was enjoying breakfast at the Everest View Hotel with a stunning view of Everest right in front of me. It was truly an unforgettable moment.

    I want to sincerely thank Mr. Dhruba for arranging this amazing helicopter tour in such a short amount of time. And big thanks to the entire team at Eco Holidays Nepal for their excellent service and hospitality.

  • I have always been a big fan of Mount Everest and dreamed of trekking to Everest Base Camp. However, due to my physical abilities, I knew I could not complete the trek on foot. Still, I did not want to give up on my dream. So I contacted Mr. Dhruba Dharel from Eco Holidays Nepal. He told me that I could still visit Everest Base Camp by helicopter.

    I agreed immediately.

    When I arrived in Nepal and took the helicopter tour to Everest Base Camp, it was absolutely mind-blowing. The aerial views of Everest and the Himalayan region were beyond anything I had imagined. I have always admired those who trek to base camp, and even more so those who climb Everest, which is an incredibly tough and dangerous achievement. Now I have even more respect for every climber, guide, and porter who takes on this journey.

    This tour changed my perspective. It made me believe that nothing is impossible. Next time, I am determined to come back and try the Everest trek myself with the amazing support of Eco Holidays Nepal.

    I want to give special thanks to Mr. Dhruba Dharel for helping make this dream come true. Also, my heartfelt gratitude goes to all the team members, guides, and porters of Eco Holidays Nepal. You made this journey unforgettable.

  • I did the Annapurna Base Camp trek with Ecoholidays Nepal this March. After completing our trek, we had 2 days remaining and didn’t want to just spend our time here and there. So, we planned for an Everest Base Camp tour. Since we only had 2 days left, I asked for a helicopter tour. Within 24 hours, Mr. Dhruba helped us and managed everything.

    The view of Everest from Kalapatthar and the breakfast at Everest View Hotel were absolutely fantastic—something I can’t even describe. I want to thank Ecoholidays Nepal for both the trek and the tour. Thanks for making our journey successful.
