Know what you are comparing

What goes into your Andaman trip cost?

Start with the whole trip, not an unexplained per-person number. Your dates, island nights, rooms and activities determine the land quote. Flights and the extras you choose complete the budget.

The short answer: price your actual dates

We send a written quote for your party and room arrangement. It names the hotels, room categories, crossings, transfers and activities. That gives you a useful total to compare before you pay.

Your trip budget = land quote + airfare + meals and extras outside the quote.

Choose the nights before comparing the price

These examples include a final Port Blair night before departure. Adding another island, night or room changes the comparison.

Five choices that change the total

01

Dates and availability

Price the actual check-in dates. Compare another date range with the same hotels and inclusions if you can travel flexibly; do not assume a universal seasonal discount.

02

Hotel and room

Compare the named property, room category, view, meal plan and cancellation conditions. Two rooms in the same resort can be different offers.

03

Party and bedding

Specify adults, children’s ages, infants, rooms and extra beds. A solo room and a room shared by two do not have the same per-person cost.

04

Ferries and vehicles

List every crossing and its class. Check which airport, jetty and sightseeing transfers are included, and whether the vehicle is point-to-point or available for other trips.

05

Activities and meals

Separate listed sightseeing from optional diving, boat trips and special dinners. Count meals actually included, rather than treating breakfast as full board.

What your written quote should include

Stays & meals

The hotel, exact room category, number of rooms and listed breakfasts. Lunch, dinner, extra beds and room upgrades must be specified separately.

Ferries & transfers

The named crossings and ferry class, plus listed airport, jetty and sightseeing transfers. Point-to-point vehicles are not available for unrestricted use.

Sightseeing & extras

Only the visits, tickets and activities listed in the written quote. Diving, special dinners, photoshoots and other additions need an explicit inclusion and price.

Airfare to the islands, meals not listed, personal expenses and optional activities are outside the land quote unless explicitly included. Ask how changes or disruption would be handled before paying.

For a couple

Request the total for two, with one room or your preferred arrangement. Decide whether a room view, extra Havelock night or special dinner matters most. A honeymoon label does not tell you which of those is included.

For a family or solo traveller

A family quote needs ages and bedding, not just headcount. For a solo trip, ask which room and transfer costs you carry alone. Compare those details before dividing a group total by the number of people.

Flights, hotels and ferries: avoid double-counting

Flights to Port Blair

Use a current airline quote for each traveller, including baggage and any connection. Confirm arrival and departure times before locking the island route.

Plan your arrival

Hotels by island

Count each overnight once. A named room in a hotel is a clearer comparison than “standard” or “luxury” alone. Check the meals and bedding attached to that room.

Ferry crossings

Confirm the route, operator, class and passenger charges on your dates. If a crossing is included in the package, do not add it again to your budget.

Count your island transfers

Bring the cost down without hiding a compromise

  • Compare two travel-date options with the same rooms and inclusions.
  • Choose fewer island changes if time is short; keep the return connection explicit.
  • Ask for a room-category alternative before cutting useful transfers.
  • Choose the paid activities you care about, and leave other time unbooked.
  • Check meal inclusions and cancellation conditions before accepting the lower total.

Trip-budget questions

How much does an Andaman trip cost per person?

Get the land-package total for your dates, number of travellers, rooms and inclusions first. A per-person comparison is useful only when those assumptions match. Flights, unlisted meals and optional activities must be added separately. We quote the actual trip instead of applying one starting price to every traveller.

How much should a couple budget?

Ask for one total for two adults and the selected room arrangement. Confirm all hotel nights, ferry tickets, transfers and meals. Add both airfares and any dinner, room decoration or photoshoot that is not included. The honeymoon page shows the choices to discuss.

How do you calculate a family quote?

We need the number of adults, each child’s age at travel, any infants and the room or extra-bed requirement. Child charges vary by service and room arrangement. A family of four is not automatically four adult fares, or two adults with two free children.

Are flights included in an Andaman package?

The example packages here are land arrangements. Airfare to Port Blair is separate unless your written quote explicitly includes it. Compare the flight’s baggage, connections and change conditions as well as its ticket price.

Which month is cheapest for an Andaman trip?

There is no guaranteed cheapest month for every hotel and departure city. Request like-for-like quotes for your possible dates and check the weather and activity trade-offs before choosing only on price.

Is it cheaper to book everything myself?

Compare the complete itinerary: the same rooms, meals, ferry classes, transfers, tickets and change conditions. Separately booked services may price differently; a package also gives you one team to coordinate the listed arrangements. Compare written totals rather than an unspecified discount.
