Before you embark on your scenic journey with Simrik Air, here's what you should know:

• Booking: Make sure to book your tour in advance to guarantee a spot, especially during the high season (spring and autumn).
• Weather Conditions: Flights are weather-dependent. We recommend checking the weather forecast ahead of time. Our team will keep you informed about any changes to your itinerary due to weather conditions.
• Clothing: Dress in layers for comfort, as temperatures can vary at different altitudes. Don't forget to bring sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen.
• Health and Safety: Ensure you are in good health and physically fit for the high-altitude tour. If you have concerns, please consult with a doctor prior to your trip.
• Altitude Awareness: Our team provides a briefing on altitude safety and other precautions. Be sure to follow the guidelines to avoid altitude sickness.

Packing Tips for the Adventure

Here are some packing tips for your helicopter tour to ensure you're fully prepared:
