A happy moment with my dad in Annapurna region
I surprised my father by booking an Annapurna Base Camp helicopter tour on his 54th birthday. I booked my tour with Boundless Adventure through the Internet. Their itinerary is six days long, but I requested that they customize it to my preferences, and they did the same. My father was shocked when we landed in Nepal, and I told him we would fly over the Annapurna region. Mr.Dambar prepared everything well and on time.
We flew from Kathmandu to Pokhara, and from Pokhara, we flew towards Annapurna Base Camp. We both had a window seat and enjoyed the mesmerizing mountain peaks and the area’s landscape from the comfort of the helicopter. My father was happy, and that’s what I wanted. The tour lasted one and a half hours, but memories will last forever. I am planning an Everest helicopter tour with Boundless Adventure for my father’s next birthday.

A commendable tour with Boundless Adventure
My best friend and I just returned from the Annapurna Base camp helicopter tour in Nepal and couldn’t stop myself from writing this review. Before starting the tour, we were unsure what to choose and which trekking agency to Choose. Fortunately, we found Boundless Adventure on the Internet. We messaged Mr.Dambar via WhatsApp and had a long conversation listing our preferences; he suggested the Annapurna Base Camp helicopter tour, and we agreed. The team member welcomed us in Kathmandu and made us feel comfortable throughout our stay in Nepal. While flying in the sky, we felt like a bird, and the view from the helicopter also provided us with a bird’s gaze.
We also had a 30-minute ground landing; at that time, we got to feel the beauty of the Annapurna region and the mountain peak’s beauty closely. The entire atmosphere around the Annapurna Base Camp was peaceful and awe-inspiring, making it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thank you again to Boundless Adventure for giving us a memorable experience in Nepal’s Himalayas.

Delightful experience in Annapurna helicopter tour
My experience at Annapurna Base Camp with two cousins was incredible. I booked through the Internet with Boundless Adventure and am glad I chose the right one. From start to finish, Boundless Adventure’s professionalism and attention to made our adventure truly unforgettable. The tour begins with a comfortable helicopter flight from Pokhara to Annapurna Base Camp. Fifteen minutes of scenic flight took us to Annapurna Base Camp, and we had a ground landing for a while. Landing at the Base Camp was impressive, as the majestic mountain peaks of Annapurna ranges surrounded us. I highly recommend Boundless Adventure for anyone looking to experience the ABC Helicopter Tour or any other adventure in Nepal.
