Cancelled by tour operating, awaiting refund.
As I have twice previously informed Trip Advisor, the trip was cancelled by the provider because a helicopter was not available. I am still owed a refund for the cancellation. In fact, I am owed two refunds because the first time I booked the trip I did not receive a confirmation or receipt, so I thought it had not gone through, but I since have noticed two charges on my American Express account totaling $2920. I would like this problem to be promptly resolved.

Bucket List Achieved
I came to Nepal for the Himalayas. I'm not an avid hiker due to a physical condition with my feet, so I booked the helicopter tours for Everest and Annapurna Base Camp. Don't get me wrong..I would love to trek these mountains if I had the strength and time, so these tours offer some an opportunity to see and experience the majestic beauty of the mountains. The tour group was very professional, safe, and got us to the base camp promptly. Now certain companies allow a set amount of time to explore base camp when they drop you off. The heli tour company I booked with gave us 45 minutes to walk around and see the base camp area, ymmv. Overall I had a great experience, and achieved a bucket list trip. I definitely recommend the Annapurna Base Camp helicopter tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Namaste! Thank you so much for this wonderful positive review. We are very glad to hear that you are happy with our service. We hope see you again. Best Wishes, Team of Welcome Nepal Treks.

Dream come true.
If mountains move you but you aren't a mountaineer or backpacker, this is probably the best way to get into and see the BIG ones. For me, it was a lifelong dream come true. But, be forewarned, the different companies will say that you get 30-60 min. on the ground, but we only got about 20 min.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Namaste! Thank you so much for this wonderful positive review. We are very glad to hear that you are happy with our service. We hope see you again. Best Wishes, Team of Welcome Nepal Treks.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Pokhara.
How much does Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara cost?
+
Prices start at $780 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Pokhara usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Pokhara is not rushed.
Is Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Pokhara, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Pokhara can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Pokhara and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Landing Annapurna Base Camp by Helicopter Tour from Pokhara start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Pokhara within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Pokhara?
+
On Outty we rank every Pokhara experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ghorepani - Poon Hill Trek 3N-4D, Annapurna Base Camp Trek -8 days, Annapurna Base Camp Treks. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Pokhara?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Pokhara?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
