When is the best time to visit the Andaman Islands?

October to May is the best season. December to April is peak — calm seas, clear skies and the best visibility for snorkelling and diving.

Do I need a permit to visit the Andamans?

Indian citizens need no permit for most islands. Foreign nationals require a Restricted Area Permit, which we arrange as part of your package.

How do I reach the Andaman Islands?

Fly to Port Blair (VSX) from Chennai, Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru or Hyderabad. We handle airport transfers and every island crossing from there.

Is scuba diving included in the packages?

Diving and snorkelling are optional add-ons with certified instructors. Every package can be extended with a guided dive at Havelock or Neil.

Can you customise a package?

Yes. We build bespoke itineraries for groups, photographers, honeymooners and freedivers — tell us your dates and we will chart the rest.

What is included in the price?

Every rupee is itemised in your proposal — hotels, ferries, permits, activities and meals per your plan, with GST shown separately. No hidden fees.

What travellers say

Our recent family vacation to the Andaman Islands was truly one of the most memorable trips we have ever taken, and a huge part of that credit goes to Anita and her team at Maven Andamans. From the moment we started planning our trip, Anita was incredibly attentive, detail-oriented, and thoughtful in understanding our requirements. She meticulously planned every aspect of our vacation—from accommodations and transportation to sightseeing and daily itineraries. Every hotel she recommended exceeded our expectations, and each destination and activity was perfectly chosen for our family. What impressed us the most was the level of care and attention to detail. Everything was seamlessly coordinated, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about logistics. The entire trip was smooth, stress-free, and beautifully organized. Anita and her team truly nailed it. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and commitment to delivering an exceptional experience were evident throughout our journey. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our Andaman adventure and returned home with wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. I would absolutely choose Maven Andamans again for future visits and would wholeheartedly recommend Anita and her team to my friends and family looking for an unforgettable Andaman experience. Thank you, Anita and the entire Maven Andamans team, for making our family vacation so special. We look forward to visiting Andaman again soon!

Visited Andaman Islands this month for a long due reunion trip with high school friends. A friend recommended Anita Singh with Maven Andaman as our travel agent. Anita went beyond our expectations with assistance in planning and arranging for accommodations, transportation and activities. She was very patient and flexible with many custom requests and last minute changes. We all highly recommend Maven Andaman for any travel in Andaman & Nicobar islands.

Zero tension. Well organised. Amazing coordination between them for pick up and drop. On-time schedules in entire trip. 100% trustworthy. No hurry, no pushing. Everyone was very polite across the island. Must visit island. Beaches are beautiful. Don't miss scuba diving. Plan for at-least 6-7 days with family. Mrs.Anitha madam was our organiser. She seems to be popular there. Everyone knows her well. I recommend her company for tour plan.
