Frequently asked questions

How much does Kailash Mansarovar Yatra cost from Nepal?

Starting prices in 2027 are about Rs 2,30,000 for the overland route via Kerung and Rs 2,75,000 for the 10-day helicopter route from Lucknow. The Kathmandu helicopter and Lhasa routes start from Rs 2,95,000 and Rs 2,95,000. The final price depends on the date, group size and stay.

Which route is the shortest?

The helicopter route from Lucknow is the shortest, at 10 days and 9 nights. It uses a flight to Simikot and a helicopter to Hilsa on the Nepal–Tibet border.

Do I need a passport?

Yes. You need a valid passport, passport-size photos and a medical fitness certificate. We arrange the Tibet permits for the group as part of the package.

When is the best time to go in 2027?

May to September. Full moon (Purnima) batches around 20 May, 19 June and 17 August are the most popular and fill first.

Is the helicopter safe in bad weather?

Hill flights in Nepal fly only in suitable weather. Delays of a day or two happen, so the itinerary has a buffer and you should keep one or two spare days after the yatra.

Is this the same as the government yatra?

No. The government yatra is run by the Ministry of External Affairs through Lipulekh and Nathu La, and you apply on kmy.gov.in. This is a private package through Nepal with fixed group departures.
