Questions Visitors Ask

First-time travelers to the Andamans often have many questions about permits, connectivity, and the best time to visit. The team at Platinum Tours and Travels proactively addresses these concerns during the planning phase. Here are some common points that come up when organizing an unforgettable Andaman holiday.

• Do I need a permit to visit the Andaman Islands? Indian nationals do not need a special permit to visit the main islands. A Restricted Area Permit (RAP) is required for certain tribal areas, but your travel agency handles most documentation for included destinations.
• What is the ideal trip duration for a complete Andaman experience? A 6–8 day itinerary comfortably covers Port Blair, Havelock, and Neil Island. For Diglipur or Little Andaman, plan for 9–12 days.
• How is mobile network connectivity across the islands? BSNL, Airtel, and Vodafone offer reasonable coverage in Port Blair and Havelock. Connectivity may be weak or absent in remote areas like Diglipur and Baratang—your tour guide will keep you informed.
• What payment methods does Platinum Tours and Travels accept? The agency accepts bank transfers, UPI payments, and cash. A flexible pay-as-you-advance option is available for many packages, making budgeting easier.
