We had an amazing...

Jeffery_D, May 2026

We had an amazing experience on the Mt. Everest scenic flight with Buddha Air. The free airport transfer was perfectly on time, communication before the flight was excellent, and Kushal was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the process. Our first flight was cancelled due to weather, but they handled the rescheduling completely for us based on our availability. On the second attempt, the weather was perfect and the mountain views were absolutely incredible. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Nepal.

Dear Jeffery Dykstra, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing KJ Adventure Nepal for your Mount Everest Scenic Flight experience. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding regarding the weather related cancellation on the first day. In situations like these, we believe that service and proper support matter the most, so we are very happy to hear that our team was able to handle the rescheduling smoothly and make the process stress-free for you. We are also pleased to hear that Kushal’s friendly assistance, our communication, and the timely airport transfers helped make your experience comfortable from start to finish. Most importantly, we are delighted that your second flight offered perfect weather and those incredible Himalayan views that make the Everest scenic flight so special. Thank you once again for your kind recommendation. It was our pleasure to assist you, and we hope to welcome you back to Nepal for more unforgettable experiences in the future. Warm regards, KJ Adventure Nepal & Team

Spectacular views- KJ adventures highly recommend!

Kate_H, Apr 2026

amazing experience- a must do! KJ adventures were a professional and very organised company. The pick up was on time, in a modern car and our rep (Avkan? Spelling sorry) was very polite and helpful. He assisted us to the airport and instructed us on the steps. The flight was spectacular. We had row 1 seats. Arguably the best. Right side gets a closer view. He was waiting for us at arrivals. Very prompt. Highly recommend.
