    The Everest Base Camp Heli Trek was a ripper experience that I'll never forget. The chopper ride over the mountains was bloody stunning, and the trek itself was tough but fair dinkum rewarding. The guides were legends and fair dinkum helpful, and the accommodation was bonzer. I reckon this trip is a must-do for any adventure and nature lover.
