5 Days Andaman Tour Packages

Reviewed By Thrillophilia Andaman Operational Team

An Andaman itinerary for 5 days usually costs between INR 16,000 and INR 33,000, with the final number shaped by hotel category, the number of islands covered and whether transfers run private or shared.

A 4 Days Andaman Tour Itinerary tends to stay confined to Port Blair, since one day disappears into the flight in and another into the flight out, leaving barely enough time for the Cellular Jail and one beach, with Havelock skipped entirely for lack of a spare day. Adding a single night to that same trip and an Andaman itinerary for 5 days changes the equation completely, fitting in Havelock Island along with Port Blair without turning either stop into something rushed, which is exactly why this duration tends to outperform the shorter one on almost every review.

A 6 Days Andaman Tour Itinerary stretches further still, working in Neil Island or Baratang's limestone caves, but that extra distance also means more ferry time and higher costs for someone who only wanted a properly paced holiday rather than a checklist of islands, making the 5 day version the more balanced pick for most travellers.

October to May keeps the sea calm enough for the Havelock ferry and for snorkelling near North Bay Island, making this stretch the better window for booking an Andaman itinerary for 5 days. June to September brings swells strong enough to cancel crossings without much notice, so most operators quietly push travellers toward the earlier months instead.

Indian nationals need nothing beyond a valid government ID to move between islands, since no separate permit applies outside the Jarawa Reserve and North Sentinel Island, both off limits regardless of paperwork. Foreign travellers need a Restricted Area Permit, issued free at Veer Savarkar International Airport on arrival, valid for thirty days. Reaching Port Blair takes a direct flight from Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru or Hyderabad, with a passenger ship from Chennai or Kolkata working as the slower alternative.

An Andaman tour package built around this route usually keeps Port Blair and Havelock as fixed stops, adjusting hotel grade and the water activities bundled in based on budget. What follows lays out what an Andaman itinerary for 5 days looks like day by day, which stops to earn the extra time, and where the itinerary is worth stretching further.

Places to Visit and Things to Do

An Andaman itinerary for 5 days packs in the destination's best known places to visit in Andaman alongside enough things to do in Andaman to keep both first timers and repeat travellers occupied without feeling rushed.

• Corbyn's Cove Beach Paired with the Cellular Jail on the first day in Port Blair, an easy stop for anyone easing into the trip straight off a flight.
• Cellular Jail: The sound and light show in Cellular Jail is best saved and must be experienced in the evening, since the story lands harder after dark than under midday sun.
• North Bay Island: A glass bottom boat ride here works as a swap for families running an Andaman family tour with shorter attention spans.
• Radhanagar Beach: One of the few Indian beaches to feature on Asia's best beach lists, working as well for a marriage proposal as for a group of six splitting one hotel room. Couples planning an Andaman honeymoon package around this stretch usually time the Havelock check-in for late afternoon, leaving enough light for a first look at the beach before dinner.
• Scuba Diving at Havelock: Dive schools near Beach No. 3 offer discovery dives for first timers and full certification courses for anyone extending beyond five days.
• Leisure Day at Havelock: No transfer attached, the stretch most Andaman 5 days package itineraries reserve purely for beach time or diving, and usually what convinces first time visitors that an Andaman itinerary for 5 days beats squeezing the same stops into four.
• Kalapathar Beach: Known for its black volcanic sand, quieter and darker than Radhanagar.
• Ross Island: British era ruins reachable from the same Phoenix Bay jetty, a stop that groups booking the andaman package 4 night 5 days route often add instead of resting on the evening back in Port Blair.
• Aberdeen Bazaar The last stop before departure, good for local spices and shell craft.

Why Choose Thrillophilia

Thrillophilia's own network in Port Blair and Havelock handles ferry bookings, hotel check-ins and the Restricted Area Permit paperwork for foreign travellers. So an Andaman itinerary for 5 days rarely loses a day to logistics the way a self-planned trip sometimes does when a ferry sells out during peak season.

The same 4 night 5 days Andaman package structure adjusts for group size without much friction, since larger parties planning an Andaman group tour can swap a shared cab for a private one or add a second guide without rebuilding the schedule.

Support stays reachable through the trip itself, useful mainly for small disruptions, a delayed ferry or a hotel room that needs reassigning, rather than anything dramatic. Ratings across these five day itineraries sit above 4.5 by more than 1000+ reviews, with recurring mentions of guides who know which beach gets crowded by eleven and which one stays quiet past four.
