I was bitten by the travel bug at quite a young age whereas for the past five years, my wife has been my soulmate and my best travel companion. I am a Cloud Devops Engineer by profession, and my wife is a history teacher. It is indeed a blessing that she shares my enthusiasm for traveling, and being a history buff, she has added yet another perspective to our travel experiences.
A Romantic Trip To Andaman: Travel Tips To Plan A Perfect Vacation For An Ideal Duration Of 6D/5N
We’ve traveled to many destinations in India like that of Pune, Kerala, Goa, Alibaug, Matheran, and international destinations of Malaysia, Russia, and Hong Kong. We were sure that we wanted to explore a beach destination under our budget as this was our second trip in last six months. We finally decided on Andaman over Pondicherry and when I went ahead with the process, I remembered one of my colleagues giving a good review about TravelTriangle.
All I remember is that I went on to the website of TravelTriangle, put in a request, and everything else was taken care of by the team. We customized our own trip and received the best quotes from Peace Andaman Tours & Travels. It felt as if our trip was just sorted in a matter of few clicks. With everything booked and done, we were only left with excitement to start our journey.

Havelock And Its Heavenly Beaches
We started our second day a bit early by 6.45 am and were transferred to Havelock Island via an inland ferry.
Enjoying good music and great views, we experienced a fun ride before we checked-in at the beautiful Havelock Island Beach Resort.
The resort had a private beach and a lush green surrounding which calmed us instantly.
Later in the afternoon, we visited the beautiful Radhanagar beach where we enjoyed a long walk along the coastline till the end of the rocky part of the beach.
It was a great and rejuvenating experience to explore one of the best beaches in the world. The beach was surrounded by dense cover of large green trees on one side and crystal clear blue waters on the other. To spend some quality time with your better half, Radhanagar beach is a picture-perfect spot.
Exploring Elephant Beach In All Its Might
On the third day, we relished a delicious breakfast and went ahead to enjoy a thrilling speedboat ride to the famous Elephant beach. On reaching the beach, we went on to enjoy the glass bottom boat ride which led us to witness the best of coral sighting ever.
Elephant beach and its environs were really nice and serene. The water too was too deep that allowed us to spend a good amount of time in swimming. It was quite a relaxing day for both of us.

We checked-in at the Tango Beach Resort and continued our excursion of this unspoilt getaway.
Later in the day, we went to explore the famous Natural Coral Bridge which was magnificent indeed. Post that, we enjoyed a delicious lunch by the soothing blue waters at the Bharatpur beach.
All we could think of and do at the Bharatpur beach was to laze around as we just had one more day to enjoy the awesomeness of Andaman.
We also relished a cup of tea and hot pakodas as we watched the surreal views of the sunset at the Laxmanpur beach.
Time For Shopping And Some Sweet Indulgence
On the fifth day, we went back to Port Blair and rested for some time at the hotel. It was kind of a leisure day and in the afternoon, we went on to explore the local markets.

Overall Experience With TravelTriangle
This was our first experience with TravelTriangle and I must say that the entire trip was totally a value for money experience.
