Langtang Heli Tours is a Kathmandu-based helicopter tour operator dedicated to taking travelers into the heart of the Langtang National Park. We run two flagship high-altitude routes — the Langtang Valley Helicopter Tour to Kyanjin Gompa and the Gosaikunda Lakes Helicopter Tour — with expert flight planning, transparent pricing, and practical high-altitude advice.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to make the Langtang Valley and Gosaikunda accessible to every traveler who wants to experience the high Himalaya without trekking. Standing at Kyanjin Gompa or beside the sacred lakes of Gosaikunda should be a smooth, breathtaking experience — and it starts with the right preparation before you fly.
The Airbus H125 Fleet
Our fleet is built around the Airbus H125 (AS350 B3e), the industry standard for high-altitude helicopter operations. Each aircraft is configured with a Safran Arriel 2D turboshaft engine, delivering 847 shaft horsepower at maximum takeoff weight, which enables operational landings above 6,000 meters under standard density conditions. Maintenance follows EASA Part-145 standards, and every machine carries dual GPS navigation, satellite tracking, and medical-certified oxygen systems.
What We Offer
- Langtang Valley Helicopter Tour — Daily morning charters from Kathmandu to Kyanjin Gompa (3,830 m) with a 45-minute stopover at the ancient Sherpa settlement.
- Gosaikunda Lakes Helicopter Tour — Direct flights to the sacred high-altitude lakes (4,380 m) with a 30-minute lakeside stopover.
