What Andaman Tour Packages from Delhi Involve

Andaman tour packages from Delhi are built around one gateway — Veer Savarkar International Airport (IXZ) at Sri Vijaya Puram — and a ferry network linking the main islands. A direct flight takes about 5.5 hours when it operates; connections via Kolkata or Chennai are the fallback. Five to seven nights covers the standard circuit.

A Delhi to Andaman tour follows a consistent structure: fly into IXZ, spend one or two nights in Sri Vijaya Puram for Cellular Jail and the museums, then ferry to Swaraj Dweep (Havelock) for beaches and water activities, and cross to Shaheed Dweep (Neil) for Bharatpur Beach and the Natural Bridge before returning to the capital for the flight home.

IndiGo and Air India operate on the Delhi route, though direct services may run seasonally or on selected days. Confirm the schedule for your exact travel date before booking same-day ferry connections.

Indian citizens need no visa, Restricted Area Permit or Inner Line Permit for the standard tourist circuit of South Andaman, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep. A government photo ID is sufficient. Tribal reserves, Nicobar and other restricted areas remain closed to independent tourism; verify current protected-area rules before departure.

Quick facts

Andaman Packages Available from Delhi

Getting there

How to Reach Andaman

Once you land at Veer Savarkar International Airport, airport taxis, pre-paid cabs and app-based services cover Sri Vijaya Puram. Inter-island ferry schedules are weather-dependent, so always reconfirm timings the evening before travel and keep your last night in Sri Vijaya Puram to protect the return flight.

Scooter rental on the islands costs roughly INR 500 to INR 800 per day and is a practical way to cover Swaraj Dweep independently. Auto-rickshaws for short hops in Sri Vijaya Puram commonly run INR 100 to INR 300.

Sample route

Suggested Andaman Itinerary for a Delhi Departure

A six-night route opens with two nights in Sri Vijaya Puram, moves to Swaraj Dweep for two nights and Shaheed Dweep for one, then returns to Sri Vijaya Puram for the final night before the Delhi flight. Keeping the last night in the capital protects against weather-delayed ferry crossings.

The day-by-day plan below uses the standard tourist circuit. Adjust island order if your ferry timings differ. The Cellular Jail light and sound show runs in the evening and should be booked in advance during the October-to-April peak season.

Best Time for an Andaman Trip from Delhi

October to April is the most reliable window for an Andaman trip from Delhi, with February and March delivering the driest conditions and calmest seas. The monsoon months bring rougher ferry crossings and more frequent disruption to water activities, making them a poor choice for first-time visitors.

January

Best time to go

Crowdshigh

November to April gives the most dependable combination of clear skies, operating water sports and predictable ferry schedules. December and January are peak season — crowds are higher and package prices reflect that. Travelling in October or April offers a balance of good weather and lower demand.

The month table below covers all twelve months so you can match your leave window to conditions. Ratings reflect weather reliability and activity access rather than personal preference.

Compare

Andaman Trip Lengths Compared

Five nights suits travellers who want the core circuit without rushing; six nights adds breathing room for water activities; seven or more allows a slower pace or an extra island. Because the Delhi flight alone takes about 5.5 hours when direct, shorter trips lose a disproportionate share of time to travel days.

The comparison below sets out what each duration realistically covers. Ferry crossings are weather-dependent, so the buffer night in Sri Vijaya Puram matters more the shorter your trip.

Highlights

Key Places on the Standard Andaman Circuit

The standard andaman tour packages from Delhi circuit covers three main destinations: Sri Vijaya Puram for history and logistics, Swaraj Dweep for beaches and diving, and Shaheed Dweep for a quieter pace. Each island has distinct draws that justify the ferry crossing.

  1. Sri Vijaya Puram

    Cellular Jail

    The colonial-era prison that held Indian independence activists is the most visited historical site on the islands. The evening light and sound show narrates its history and runs on selected evenings; book tickets in advance during peak season.

    Best forHistory, heritage and the light and sound show

    Arrive early in the morning to avoid midday heat and tour groups.

  2. Swaraj Dweep (Havelock)

    Radhanagar Beach

    A long west-facing beach on Swaraj Dweep, rated among the best in Asia by several travel publications. The beach faces west, making it the standard sunset spot on the island.

    Best forSunset, swimming and beach walks

    Walk to the northern end for fewer people and cleaner sand.

  3. Swaraj Dweep (Havelock)

    Elephant Beach

    Reached by a short boat ride or a forest trail from the main jetty area, Elephant Beach is the primary site for introductory scuba sessions and snorkelling on Swaraj Dweep. Licensed operators run sessions here subject to weather and medical suitability.

    Best forIntroductory scuba, snorkelling and coral viewing

    Book your scuba or snorkelling slot the evening before to secure a morning departure.

  4. Shaheed Dweep (Neil)

    Bharatpur Beach

    The main beach on Shaheed Dweep, known for calm, shallow water and good snorkelling near the shore. Glass-bottom boat rides operate from the beach.

    Best forSnorkelling, glass-bottom boat rides and a quieter beach day

    Combine with the Natural Bridge in the same afternoon.

  5. Shaheed Dweep (Neil)

    Natural Bridge

    A naturally formed rock arch on the coast of Shaheed Dweep, accessible on foot at low tide. The formation is a short walk from Bharatpur Beach.

    Best forGeology, photography and a short coastal walk

    Check tide times before visiting; the arch is best seen and photographed at low tide.

  6. Swaraj Dweep (Havelock)

    Kalapathar Beach

    A quieter beach on the eastern side of Swaraj Dweep, named for the black rocks at its edge. Sunrise here is a popular alternative to the Radhanagar sunset.

    Best forSunrise, quiet beach time and photography

    Visit at sunrise for the best light and fewest visitors.

  7. Sri Vijaya Puram

    Corbyn's Cove Beach

    The closest beach to the Sri Vijaya Puram town centre, near the airport. A practical option for a short beach visit on arrival or departure days.

    Best forA quick beach visit near the capital on travel days

    Use on the last afternoon before your return flight rather than dedicating a full day.

Knowing what each stop offers helps you allocate nights correctly. Swaraj Dweep typically earns the most nights because Radhanagar Beach and Elephant Beach each warrant a dedicated half-day.

Travel tips

Travelling to Andaman from Delhi — What to Know

Delhi travellers should confirm the direct flight schedule before planning same-day ferry connections, keep the last night in Sri Vijaya Puram as a buffer, and carry a government photo ID. On-island transport ranges from auto-rickshaws at roughly INR 100 to INR 300 per short hop to scooter rental at about INR 500 to INR 800 per day.

  1. Confirm the direct flight before planning ferries

    Direct Delhi to Sri Vijaya Puram services may operate seasonally or on selected days. Check the schedule for your exact date before booking a same-day ferry to Swaraj Dweep or Shaheed Dweep.

    Flights
  2. Use Kolkata or Chennai as a fallback hub

    When no direct service operates, connect via Kolkata or Chennai. Build in transit time and avoid tight connections if you plan to reach an outer island the same day you land at IXZ.

    Flights
  3. Keep the final night in Sri Vijaya Puram

    Ferry schedules are weather-dependent. Sleeping in the capital on your last night protects the return flight to Delhi from a delayed or cancelled sailing from Swaraj Dweep or Shaheed Dweep.

    Planning
  4. Carry government photo identification

    Indian citizens need valid domestic travel ID but no passport, visa or permit for the standard tourist circuit of South Andaman, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep. Keep a digital copy as backup.

    Documents
  5. Book ferries in advance during peak season

    October to April is peak season and popular ferry departures — especially morning sailings to Swaraj Dweep — fill quickly. Book government or private ferry tickets at least a few days ahead.

    Transport
  6. Plan on-island transport before you arrive

    Airport taxis and pre-paid or app-based cabs serve Sri Vijaya Puram. On the outer islands, taxis, auto-rickshaws and rental scooters are the main options. Scooter rental runs roughly INR 500 to INR 800 per day.

    Transport
  7. Carry cash for the outer islands

    ATMs are available in Sri Vijaya Puram but less reliable on Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep. Carry enough cash for ferry fares (about INR 500 to INR 2,500 per crossing), meals and activity fees.

    Money
  8. Download offline maps and confirmations before leaving Sri Vijaya Puram

    Mobile connectivity is limited on the outer islands. Download offline maps, ferry timetables and hotel confirmations while you still have reliable data access in Sri Vijaya Puram.

    Connectivity
  9. Check restricted-area rules before departure

    Tribal reserves, Nicobar and several other island groups are not open for independent tourism. Verify current protected-area and entry rules before you travel, as regulations can change.

    Documents

The tips below address the practical points that most affect a Delhi departure: flight confirmation, connection timing, documents, ferry booking and on-island logistics. They assume you are flying into IXZ and using ferries between islands.

Connectivity on the islands is limited compared to major cities. Download offline maps, ferry schedules and accommodation confirmations before leaving Sri Vijaya Puram for the outer islands. ATMs are available in Sri Vijaya Puram but less reliable on Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep; carry adequate cash for ferry fares, meals and activities.

First-hand advice

From our travel specialists

What our team sees when planning these trips for travellers, beyond what the guidebooks say.

  • Travellers commonly add or prioritise experiences such as kayaking, scuba diving, snorkelling, and sunrise or sunset beach visits after seeing the conditions locally. Reports specifically mention early-morning bioluminescence kayaking, Radhanagar sunset, and Kala Pathar or Sitapur sunrise visits.

  • The recurring mistake is trying to fit too many islands into too few days, especially treating Neil as only a transit stop. Travellers also report that ferries, hotels and activities can fill up weeks ahead in peak season, so Havelock and Neil connections should be booked early.

  • Families report that the main islands can work well for mixed-age groups because beaches and water activities appeal to both children and adults, but transfers and fixed ferry timings make a relaxed itinerary important. Couples and families also benefit from leaving room for unplanned beach time rather than packing every day with sightseeing; Neil is repeatedly described as a calmer pause than Havelock.

  • The June–September monsoon is the season travellers most often caution against for a beach-and-water-sports trip because rain and rough seas can affect ferries and outdoor activities. October to February is generally preferred, although it is busier and more expensive.

10 answered below
Still unsure?

Ask a specialist anything about Andaman from Delhi — there’s no obligation.

Ask a specialist
01What is the best time to visit Andaman?

October to April is the most reliable window, with February and March offering the driest conditions and calmest seas. November to April gives the best combination of clear skies and operating water activities. The monsoon months — June to August — bring rough ferry crossings and frequent disruption to water sports.

02How many days are enough for an Andaman tour?

Five to seven nights suits the standard Sri Vijaya Puram, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep circuit. Five nights covers the core route, six adds a full activity day and a buffer night, and seven or more allows a slower pace. Shorter trips risk losing a day to flight or ferry delays.

03Do Indian citizens need a permit to visit Andaman?

No permit is required for the standard tourist circuit of South Andaman, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep. Indian citizens need only a valid government photo ID. Tribal reserves, Nicobar and other restricted areas are not open for independent tourism; check current rules before travel.

04Which airport serves Andaman tours?

Veer Savarkar International Airport (IXZ) at Sri Vijaya Puram is the principal gateway. Direct services from Delhi take about 5.5 hours when they operate; otherwise you connect via Kolkata or Chennai. IndiGo and Air India serve the route.

05Which islands should first-time visitors include in Andaman?

Most first-time itineraries cover Sri Vijaya Puram, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep. Sri Vijaya Puram has Cellular Jail and the museums, Swaraj Dweep offers Radhanagar Beach and Elephant Beach for snorkelling and scuba, and Shaheed Dweep has Bharatpur Beach and the Natural Bridge.

06Are ferries between the islands available every day?

Services commonly operate daily in the main season, but schedules depend on weather, vessel availability and operator. Government and private ferries both run the routes, with one-way fares of roughly INR 500 to INR 2,500 depending on vessel and class. Always reconfirm timings the evening before travel.

07Is scuba diving safe in Andaman?

Introductory diving is widely offered through licensed operators, subject to medical suitability, weather and site conditions. Elephant Beach off Swaraj Dweep is a common first-timer site. Choose an operator that checks your fitness and briefs you on the site before entering the water.

08What is the indicative cost of an Andaman package from Delhi?

Indicative land-only twin-sharing packages run about INR 28,000 per person at the budget tier, INR 45,000 standard, INR 70,000 premium and INR 125,000 luxury, all before airfare. Airfare from Delhi varies with season and booking window; treat these as planning bands rather than confirmed quotes.

09How do I reach Andaman from Delhi?

Fly from Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) to Veer Savarkar International Airport (IXZ) at Sri Vijaya Puram. Direct services take about 5.5 hours when operating; connections via Kolkata or Chennai are the alternative. There is no road or rail link to the islands.

10What is the ferry fare between the Andaman islands?

One-way ferry fares between Sri Vijaya Puram, Swaraj Dweep and Shaheed Dweep run roughly INR 500 to INR 2,500 depending on the vessel and class. Government and private ferries both operate the routes. Book in advance during the October-to-April peak season as popular sailings fill quickly.
