Does helicopter tour take you to Kailash? Is the Helicopter tour to Kailash worth?
The advertised helicopter tour to Kailash is quite misleading as there is no permission to fly a Helicopter in Tibet / China at Kailash region due to security. So the Kailash helicopter tour takes you to the Nepal / Tibet border town of Hilsa and from there, people take a Jeep or bus to Mansarovar and complete the Kailash Mansarovar tour and back to Hilsa and there take a helicopter and back to Simikot Nepalgunj and then to Kathmandu. So no helicopter goes to Kailash and we don’t recommend helicopter tours due to 3 reasons. Reason no. 1 is it is going too high too quickly so you may get sick. Reason no. 2 is due to bad weather lot of times the helicopter flights are canceled or delayed and you may end up spending more time and money, at the same time disappointed. Reason no. 3 is you will be spending more money. The best we always suggest is 15 15-day Kailash Overland tour from Kathmandu.
