The 9 Day Itinerary
Day 1. Arrival in Kathmandu
Welcome to Nepal! Upon landing in Kathmandu, our team will be there to greet you at Tribhuvan International Airport. You’ll be transferred to a premium hotel where you can rest and recover from your journey. In the evening, we’ll host a casual welcome meet-and-greet where you’ll connect with your fellow jumpers, guides, and ground team. Take this opportunity to soak in the energy of the city — tomorrow, the mountains await.
Day 2: Heli Flight to Lukla & Trek to Phakding
The adventure begins early with a stunning helicopter flight to Lukla — widely considered one of the world’s most dramatic airports. From there, we embark on a scenic trek to the riverside village of Phakding. You’ll experience your first taste of the Khumbu region’s charm as we follow winding trails through pine forests, suspension bridges, and prayer-flag-lined paths. After a hearty dinner, we’ll spend the night in a cozy mountain lodge.
Day 3: Trek from Phakding to Namche Bazaar
Today’s hike takes us deeper into the Himalayas as we make our way to Namche Bazaar — the bustling heart of the Khumbu Valley. The journey includes crossings over roaring rivers, views of snow-dusted peaks, and the chance to spot Himalayan wildlife. As we ascend, the air thins and the landscapes open into dramatic vistas. Upon arrival in Namche, enjoy a warm meal, hot tea, and a good night’s rest at your teahouse accommodation.
Day 4: Hike to Syangboche — The Drop Zone
After breakfast in Namche, we trek to Syangboche — our home base and official drop zone. Located at 12,400 feet (3,780 meters), Syangboche offers breathtaking views of Mt. Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam. We’ll use this day to acclimate to the altitude and familiarize ourselves with the layout of the DZ. You’ll also be briefed by our jump masters and have time to explore the area or simply relax and absorb the surreal surroundings.

Days 5–7: Jump Operations & Exploration
Over the next three days, we aim to complete all skydiving operations, weather permitting. The Himalayan climate is dynamic, and we’ve designed the schedule to allow maximum flexibility. When skies are clear, you’ll board a helicopter for your once-in-a-lifetime tandem skydive, soaring alongside the world’s most iconic peaks before touching down in Syangboche.
During non-jump windows, there’s no shortage of adventure. Enjoy high-altitude hikes to nearby viewpoints, visit a local monastery, sip warm tea with Sherpa hosts, or simply sit in awe of Everest at sunrise. Whether you’re flying or grounding yourself in the magic of the Khumbu, every moment here is unforgettable.
Day 8: Return to Kathmandu & City Tour
This morning, we lift off once more — this time back to Kathmandu by helicopter. After checking into your hotel, we’ll head out for a curated tour of the city’s cultural highlights: ancient temples, sacred stupas, and lively marketplaces. In the evening, gather with your team for a celebratory group dinner and relive the highs of your incredible journey.
Day 9: Departure
On your final day, enjoy a relaxed group breakfast before your transfer to the airport. You’ll leave Nepal with new friendships, epic memories, and the rare honor of having skydived in the shadows of Everest. Safe travels — until your next great leap.
