Andaman Islands: common questions
- Yes. Havelock is one of the best places in India to try diving, with calm, clear water from October to May.
- By ferry. Port Blair to Havelock takes 1.5 to 2 hours, and Havelock to Neil about 1.5 hours. We book all three legs.
- Ferries run subject to weather. If one is cancelled, we rearrange the order of the days or book the next available sailing.
- No. Flights to Port Blair are quoted separately. There are direct flights from several cities, or you can connect through Chennai.
- No. Every trip is planned for one family, couple or group of friends at a time: flights, hotels, drivers, guides and sightseeing, all chosen for you.
- Message us on WhatsApp — there is no form. Tell us roughly where, roughly when, and who is travelling. A trip designer replies personally, usually the same day, and follows up with a call to understand your priorities before sending a proposal.
- Where we show a figure it is indicative, per couple, and all-inclusive — flights, visa, hotels, sightseeing, transfers, breakfast and dinner. It is a planning number, not a quote: it is confirmed once hotels and transport are actually held, and it moves with the exchange rate on the day of booking. Trips without a figure are priced on enquiry.
- Yes. On our Europe trips both are included in the indicative price — return flights and visa application support and fees. Elsewhere we book flights through your preferred airline alliance and co-ordinate visa documentation separately.
