While planning your ultimate Andaman holiday, transportation is the key to your holiday experience. From airport pickup to hotel drop-off, island tours to ferry terminal pickups, a dependable cab service can ensure your trip hassle-free and relaxing.
That‘s where Andaman Emerald Travels steps in. Being a reliable local tour operator and travel agency in Andaman, we provide budget-friendly, transparent, and well-organized cab services throughout Port Blair, Havelock (Swaraj Dweep), and Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep). In this blog, we will give you a comprehensive Andaman cab price list, explain how local transport works, and give you tips to make the most out of your travel in the islands.
1. Significance of Cabs in Andaman Travel
Public transport in Andaman is scarce. Though buses and auto-rickshaws are available in some areas, they are not tourist-friendly, particularly if you are running short of time or have luggage. Taxis or private cabs are still the best means of getting from point to point to key points like:
Veer Savarkar Airport (Port Blair)
Hotel transfers
Sightseeing destinations like Cellular Jail, Chidiya Tapu, Radhanagar Beach, Bharatpur Beach
Jetty and ferry terminals
Inter-island transfers
Reserving a cab with a local agent such as Andaman Emerald Travels guarantees prompt pickup, expert drivers, and fair prices with no extra costs.
2. Types of Cabs Available in Andaman
We have various vehicles to fit your travel party and budget:
Sedan (Swift Dzire, Etios, etc.): Suitable for 1–4 people
SUV (Innova, Ertiga, Xylo, etc.): Suitable for 4–6 people
Tempo Traveller (12-seater): Suitable for large groups or family tours
Luxury Cars (On demand): Luxury cars for VIP transfers and honeymoon couples
Every cab includes an experienced local driver, fuel, and all the required permits.
