Nepal – Mighty Himalayas
Want to reach higher than the highest mountain in the world? With its towering mountain ranges and deep gorges, Nepal is one of the most adventurous helicopter destinations ever. If trekking is more your thing, there are also provisions for that. Make the most of your ‘down’ time and enjoy a taste of mouthwatering Nepali cuisine.
When to go: September or October

Ethiopia – Out of this World
Africa’s oldest independent country is a diverse nation with fascinating landscapes and rich heritage. Fly over breathtaking terrains like the Simien and Bale Mountains or the Danakil Depression – one of the lowest, hottest and driest places in the world with patches of amber, scarlet and green, unlike anywhere in the world. Indeed, the landscape is so unique that you would be forgiven if you thought you were accidentally flying over some other planet altogether!
When to go: Throughout the year

Kenya – Great Migration
Be witness to the great wildebeest migration from up above. If watching two million antelopes crossing the vast plains is not enough, there’s also Kenya’s diverse landscape for you to feast your eyes on, with maybe a glimpse of the famous Mount Kilimanjaro. Depending on your tour plan, you may also get a chance to view the mighty Victoria Falls in Zambia.
When to go: July to September

Chile – At the End of the World
