A Lux Orient Experience

Ascend to the Roof of the World by Private Khumbu Helicopter

The Experience

At first light, when the dawn casts a blade of cold fire across the snow ridges of the Himalayas, take to the sky aboard a chartered high-altitude helicopter. Lifting off from Kathmandu, sweep over sheer glacial chasms into the Khumbu amphitheatre, landing on an isolated mountain ledge facing the south wall of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam.

In the crisp, oxygen-thin silence of early morning, partake in an unhurried champagne breakfast surrounded by eight-thousand-metre giants, suspended above the curvature of the earth before descending back to the valley.
