Fraudsters are posing as our employees and selling fake helicopter tickets. Please be aware of the following scams:

Plan Chardham Yatra by Helicopter for May–June or September–October. First, these months give clear weather and stable winds. Next, that means on-time flights and easy darshan. So, the whole trip becomes relaxed and happy for everyone.
Pre-Monsoon (May–June): Mountains wear fresh snow, and skies stay bright. Thus, flying feels smooth and scenic. Also, when you book your Chardham Heli Yatra or Char Dham Helicopter Package 3–4 months before yatra date, you will surely get better seats and hotel reservations.
Post-Monsoon (Sep–Oct): The rain washes the hills clean, so everything turns green and lovely. Then helicopter views are stunning, lines are shorter, and roads are tidy. Because of this, the Char Dham Yatra by Helicopter price often remains fair.
With LIH, you travel in comfort and safety. Plus, our Chardham Yatra Packages by Helicopter include VIP darshan, neat stays, and smooth transfers. Finally, you enjoy a peaceful, premium experience—no long treks, only divine views and easy travel.
