Love in Andaman 7N/8D — 7 Nights / 8 Days
A 7 nights 8 days Andaman honeymoon across Port Blair, Neil and Havelock, taking in Chidiya Tapu at sunset, Neil's beaches, Elephant Beach snorkelling, Radhanagar Beach, Ross Island and a Port Blair city tour.
About this itinerary
A slower honeymoon that spreads its time across the three main islands and keeps four nights in Port Blair. You open with a sunset at Chidiya Tapu, then cross to Neil for its beaches and rock formation before moving to Havelock.
Havelock brings Elephant Beach snorkelling and Radhanagar, and the return to Port Blair adds a Ross and North Bay boat day, Corbyn's Cove and a city tour that ends at the Cellular Jail Light and Sound show. It suits couples who prefer a gentle rhythm.
