A heavenly one of a kind experience. - I am left speechless after having such a close view of the Himalayas, especially Mt. Everest. The crew were on top of their A-game explaining the names and significance of each mountain range and its history. The mountains that had off-the-chart characteristics in terms of energy, patterns, and mammoth size are Gauri Shankar and the peak of Mt. Everest. Each one of the passengers on the flight got an exclusive view of the mountains. It was a unique memorable experience. Hari was so kind to follow through with me right from the pick up from my hotel to flight check-in, boarding, seating, and the drop off at the hotel. Kudus for putting on such a great trip for travelers to experience Mt.Everest in a special way. I highly recommend Welcome Nepal Treks.

Great morning flight - Views were AMAZING! We were worried, because it was very hazy in Kathmandu, due to forest fires. When we took off, visibility was nil. However, 15 minutes into the flight, the Himalaya appeared, and the rest of the flight was spectacular. We were picked up at our hotel by a driver and a guide, who got us through the airport with ease, and who were waiting for us when we returned. We were back to the hotel in time for breakfast! Highly recommended.

Well worth doing - Probably the next best thing if you do not plan to trek to base camp. An early morning start, picked up at 5.15am from our hotel. The driver was waiting for us in reception. The early start also means avoiding the worst of Kathmandu’s traffic getting to the airport. Boarding the Shree airlines flight was straightforward. We were in the air for approx 50 minutes. Everyone has a window seat allocated. The mountains are visible on the left hand side going out and the right hand side returning. Your ticket has the individual mountains marked on it and the crew will point out key features including Everest.

Great flight, watch the calendar - The pre-trip and hotel transfer service was impeccable. Flight crew on Yeti Airlines moved around to each passenger to point out the key mountains outside the aircraft windows. Although this tour refunds your money if the flight is canceled, it would be helpful in the tour description the months when the rainy season occurs.
