IRCTC Andaman Tour Package: Planning a family vacation to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands becomes easier with IRCTC’s Family Andaman Holiday Gold (EHH96) package, which combines some of the archipelago’s most popular attractions into a six-day holiday.
Known for pristine beaches, clear turquoise waters, lush landscapes and vibrant marine life, the Andaman Islands have become a favourite destination for Indian travellers. For families who want to explore multiple islands without arranging hotels, ferries and sightseeing separately, this IRCTC package offers a convenient option covering Port Blair, Havelock Island and Neil Island.
The package includes five nights and six days, with three nights in Port Blair, one night in Havelock and one night in Neil Island. It operates with daily departures and follows a MAP plan, which includes breakfast and dinner. The package falls under the Comfort category and combines sightseeing, island transfers, beach visits and leisure time.
For the lean season from April 1 to September 30, 2026, fares start from around ₹27,500 per person, depending on the sharing arrangement.
Day 1: Port Blair, Corbyn’s Cove and Cellular Jail
The Andaman holiday begins in Port Blair, where travellers are received at the airport and transferred to their hotel.
The first sightseeing stop is Corbyn’s Cove Beach, situated around seven kilometres from Port Blair. Surrounded by palm trees, the beach offers visitors an opportunity to relax by the sea.
The itinerary then takes travellers to the historic Cellular Jail, one of the most important landmarks associated with India’s freedom struggle.
In the evening, visitors can attend the jail’s Light and Sound Show, which narrates stories from India’s colonial past and the sacrifices made by freedom fighters.
Travellers return to their Port Blair accommodation for the night.
Day 2: Ross Island and North Bay Island
The second day focuses on two popular island destinations — Ross Island and North Bay Island.
Ross Island, which once served as the administrative centre of the British in the Andaman region, is now known for the remains of its colonial-era buildings. Visitors can see the ruins of structures such as the former Chief Commissioner’s residence, church, bakery and other facilities.
The next stop is North Bay Island, a popular destination for marine experiences. Depending on availability and individual preference, tourists can choose activities such as scuba diving, submarine rides or glass-bottom boat trips.
These experiences provide an opportunity to observe coral formations and marine life without necessarily venturing deep into the water.
Day 3: Ferry to Havelock and Radhanagar Beach
The third day marks the first major island transfer.
After an early start, travellers leave Port Blair by ferry for Havelock Island, officially known as Swaraj Dweep. After reaching the island, the itinerary includes a visit to Kalapathar Beach before hotel check-in.
The major attraction of the day is Radhanagar Beach, widely regarded as one of Havelock’s most popular beaches.
Travellers get the afternoon to enjoy the coastline, relax on the beach and take in the surrounding scenery before spending the night at their Havelock hotel or resort.
Day 4: Neil Island and Natural Bridge
On the fourth day, the journey continues to Neil Island, now known as Shaheed Dweep.
After breakfast and checkout, travellers board a cruise to the island. The day’s sightseeing includes Bharatpur Beach, the Natural Bridge and Lakshmanpur Beach.
Bharatpur is known for its attractive coastline and clear waters, while the Natural Bridge is one of Neil Island’s distinctive natural formations.
The itinerary also includes Lakshmanpur Beach as a sunset point, giving travellers time to enjoy the evening by the sea before returning to their resort for dinner and an overnight stay.
Day 5: Return to Port Blair
The fifth day is primarily dedicated to the journey back to Port Blair.
After breakfast and checkout, travellers take an afternoon ferry from Neil Island to Port Blair. They spend the final night of the package in the capital.
The relatively relaxed schedule means the holiday is not limited to rushing between tourist attractions. Travellers get dedicated time on each island to experience the beaches and surroundings at a more comfortable pace.
Day 6: Departure from Port Blair
The final morning is kept free for packing and personal activities.
After checkout, travellers are transferred to Port Blair airport for their onward journey, bringing the six-day Andaman holiday to an end.
