Andaman Tour Packages

We arrived at Port Blair airport from where we were escorted to our hotel by the travel representative. We visited Cellular Jail and Corbyn Cove Beach on our first day of Andaman tour. The light and sound show at Cellular jail induced a surge of patriotism amongst us. We experienced a mild rain shower at Corbyn Cove Beach but it didn't impact our excitement rather gave us a few unexpected cherishing moments.

On the second day, we planned for Scuba diving for which we travelled to Havelock via ferry. Here we ventured into the deep water for about 30 minutes organized by the diving centre near our resort. It was an invigorating experience which was followed by the breathtaking views of RadhaNagar Beach. We could feel the fresh sea breeze and spent some lazy time, relaxing at the beach.

Next day, we went to the Elephant Beach, a popular destination for water sports. We started our day with sea walking and snorkeling which made us admire the corals, marine plants and starfishes, followed by jet skiing amidst the turquoise-blue water of sea. Later, we went for a balloon ride that offers bird’s eye view of this immaculate place. Our next destination was Neil Island where we headed to Bharatpur Beach and took a glass-bottom boat ride. We enjoyed the vibrant corals and fishes through the bottom of our boat. Later we went to Laxmanpur beach clad in white shell sand and Howrah bridge which is a bridge-like rock with two living natural corals. The same day we came back to Port Blair. Our stress buster expedition reached its end and we enjoyed every minute spent at this beautiful yet adventurous place.

Our Andaman holidays commenced with our arrival at Port Blair airport. We spent our first day in Andaman sight-seeing and exploring Port Blair. Next day we headed to the Baratang Island, driving through the tropical forests of the island. We also met members of Jarwa tribe which was truly an exhilarating experience. After reaching Baratang Island, we took a boat ride which lead us to the Limestone Caves.

On the third day, we took a ferry to Havelock Island which was a mesmerizing experience.We had a candlelight dinner at the resort and admired the impeccable beauty of this place. Next day, we went to Neil Island and explored its many gems. One of the most beautiful experiences of our Andaman tour was visiting the Chidiyatapu Sunset point. We also went to TSG Bella Bay and enjoyed the amazing dinner and music. On our last day of Andaman vacations we went to Ross Island before heading to the airport.

Its believed that Andaman is usually visited by honeymooning couples but I enjoyed holidaying at Andaman with my family as it enthralled each one of us irrespective of our age and taste.
