First thing that comes to your mind when somebody says Andaman Islands is lying lazily on the beaches and swimming in the shallow waters. But we have a totally different scenario in our off-beat expedition. We explore several non-touristy islands and hidden beaches, ride through the thick forests for swim in the fresh waterfalls, sail to different island by private and government ferry, private boat and huge titanic type ship, small speed boat and even fishermen Dungi to give you the best of experience in the Andaman Islands. This is not a luxury trip for honeymooners, but exhausting and exhilarating expedition for explorers at heart.
