Our tour packages include accommodation, breakfast, transportation, entry tickets to attractions, and a range of tours. We can provide assistance with arranging additional services such as dinner and water sports upon request, but they are not recommended in our packages. We also offer customized itineraries and packages where clients can select the activities they want to include.

As a travel agency, we do not provide travel insurance directly. However, we strongly recommend that all our clients purchase travel insurance to ensure that they are covered in case of any unforeseen circumstances or emergencies during their trip. We can provide recommendations for trusted travel insurance providers upon request.

We do not recommend adding water sports to our tour packages due to a few reasons:

Weather conditions: The weather conditions in Andaman can be unpredictable, and water sports activities may not always be possible due to rough seas or strong winds.

Rate Fluctuations: The cost of water sports activities in Andaman can fluctuate frequently, especially during peak tourist seasons or based on demand and supply. By not including water sports in our tour packages, we allow our clients to have the flexibility to negotiate with local operators directly and possibly get a better deal than what may have been included in a package. This also ensures that our clients are not overcharged for activities that may have been included in the package at a higher rate due to fluctuations in prices.

We always recommend reputable agencies for water sports activities to ensure the safety and security of our clients. These agencies may charge a higher price, but we believe that it is worth the cost for the peace of mind and safety of our clients. Additionally, these agencies are more likely to have proper equipment and trained staff to ensure the best possible experience for our clients.

Personal Preferences: Not everyone is interested in water sports, and some may have personal preferences or physical limitations that prevent them from participating. By not including water sports in our packages, we provide our clients with the flexibility to choose the activities they prefer.
Furthermore, the weather and sea conditions can be unpredictable in Andaman, and it may not always be safe to engage in watersports activities. By not including water sports in our tour packages, we are able to provide flexibility to our clients and allow them to make their own decisions based on their interests and the current conditions.

This way, our clients can have a more personalized and enjoyable experience during their visit to Andaman.
