I would go for the EC130T2 or AS350B3

1) lower operating cost
2) good performance, especially at high altitudes
3) requires less maintenance
4) comfortable seat design for passengers

p.s. it's gonna be a little bit difficult to reach 350 NM in both models; you should consider the reserve fuel; average speed 120 kts (not more).
