After some unforgettable days on the Andaman Islands, it was time to journey further. Our next destinations were the two remaining cities of the Golden Triangle: Jaipur and Agra. (We had visited New Delhi before heading to the Andaman Islands); see earlier posts). We flew from Port Blair to Jaipur with a brief stopover inContinue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Traveling from the Andaman Islands to Jaipur”

Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Port Blair
Port Blair serves as the capital and the largest city of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Opting to stay in Port Blair for one night proved practical, especially considering our early morning flight the next day. Additionally, taking a ferry from Havelock or Neil Island on the same day as your flight can be quiteContinue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Port Blair”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Havelock’s Beaches
Heading to the Andaman Islands, I encountered diverse opinions about the beaches on Havelock and the entire Andaman archipelago. My previous disappointment with Neil Island’s beaches left me uncertain about what awaited me on Havelock. In this description, I’ll share my experiences at two beaches on Havelock Island: Rada Nagar Beach and Vijay Nagar Beach,Continue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Havelock’s Beaches”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Exploring Havelock’s Hotels, Culinary Adventures, and More
Havelock was our second stop in the Andaman Islands, and we spent four days here. My initial reaction upon arriving at Havelock was a bit disappointing – rocky beaches again! As we approached the jetty port in Havelock, rocky shores greeted us. I had been eagerly anticipating the chance to see some truly paradise-like beaches,Continue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Exploring Havelock’s Hotels, Culinary Adventures, and More”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Traveling to Havelock from Neil Island
I already wrote about traveling to Neil island in my first post about the Andaman and Nicobar islands. The procedure to get to Havelock from Neil Island was pretty much the same. It is the same ferry company (Makruzz) opreating between the islands, and the ferry we took was actually the same exact ferry thatContinue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Traveling to Havelock from Neil Island”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Neil Island – Part 2 (The beaches of Neil Island)
In the previous post, I wrote about the rocky beach of our hotel, which was completely unswimmable. This beach kind of ruined our imagination of the paradise like beaches of the Andaman Islands. However, we were told to check out other beaches of the island and luckily we did. Laxmanpur beach (Sunset beach) We wentContinue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Neil Island – Part 2 (The beaches of Neil Island)”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Neil Island – Part 1
After doing some research, we decided to visit 2 islands: Neil Island and Havelock. We started with 3 days on Neil island. Neil Island is as exotic as it can get. It is a very peaceful island with a tropical forest, different than any other islands I have visited. It is still very under developed,Continue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Neil Island – Part 1”
Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Traveling to the Andaman Islands
We flew from the New Delhi airport to Port Blair with Air India. Apparently, Air India is among the very few airlines serving Port Blair, although this is expected to change soon with the opening of a new international airport. Upon our early morning arrival at the Port Blair airport, we found the plane toContinue reading “Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Traveling to the Andaman Islands”
New Delhi: One day in Delhi
After a crazy beginning of our stay in New Delhi (see previous post), we finally arrived at our hotel. The hotel did not look to bad from the outside, we thought. The neighbourhood itself, on the other hand, was not very pleasant. The time at this point was was around 9 am and we wereContinue reading “New Delhi: One day in Delhi”
New Delhi: Arriving in New Delhi and Delhi Airport Scam
Our journey to New Delhi via Helsinki with Finnair proved to be a disappointing flight experience. As a first-time passenger with Finnair, I was thoroughly let down by the limited legroom and overall lack of space onboard. Adding to the discomfort was a box obstructing my seat, making it impossible to find even a bitContinue reading “New Delhi: Arriving in New Delhi and Delhi Airport Scam”
