A sightseeing tour which begins at dawn to take you on an epic journey to the Baratang Island via a combination of land and water transfers. You traverse through the Great Andaman Trunk road to the Middle Strait Jetty which is located in the deep reserves of Baratang Island. On the way you cross the Jarawa Settlements in the reserve forests after the Jirkatang check post. You cover almost 90-100 kilometres from Port Blair to reach the Middle Strait Jetty from which you will be boarding a vehicle ferry to the Baratang Jetty also known as the Nilambur Jetty. Once at the Nilambur Jetty you will find yourself in the Middle Andamans Tehsil and this point on your journey will be an adventurous one. You will board a boat to the Limestone Caves which have formed due to the natural water drippings on Limestone rock through millions of years. Explore the caves and hop back on the fibre boat only to be dropped at the Nilambur Jetty for an one hour drive to the Mud Volcano. The natural gases underground have found a way to leak on the surface through thin mud, thus creating this very unique natural wonder of India. Explore the Mud Volcano and its surroundings before heading back to the Middle Strait jetty via the Nilambur Jetty for the return journey back to Port Blair on the same route you have come from.
On this trip the key attraction are the tribal settlements in the Baratang Island as you get to witness the indigenous people of the Jarawa tribe.
Your journey starts with a pick-up from your hotel's lobby at around 4:30 AM in the morning. Undergo a short briefing session before starting your journey on the NH 4 or the Great Andaman Trunk Road.
After a drive of about 30 Kilometres you cross the Ferrargunj check post, continue another 15-16 kilometres on the same road to reach the Jirkatang check post where you will have to wait for about half an hour to an hour for your permits to be assigned.
We suggest you to get freshened up (if required) at the Jirkatang check post, as this point on you will be entering the reserve forests and in a convoy formation the vehicle will ply for around 40 odd kilometres without any stoppage enroute. Visitors are prohibited to get down from the vehicle during this part of the journey.
You will get to witness Jarawa Tribal individuals during this part of your journey.
This journey will come to a halt at the Middle Strait Jetty where you will be boarding a vehicle ferry to arrive at the Baratang Jetty also known as the Nilambur Jetty which is on the other side of the creek.
Arrive at the jetty and get freshened up before boarding a fibre boat to the Limestone Caves, the journey to the Limestone Caves is through the thick mangrove forests and takes around 20-25 minutes one way. On arrival at the Limestone Cave's jetty you will have to walk for another 1-1.2 kilometres on paved ways to reach the natural wonders.
Explore the caves for about an hour before boarding the same fibre boat to get back to the Baratang Jetty/Nilambur Jetty.
Once at the Nilambur Jetty you will be boarding a vehicle. This car will drive you through a thin path to the Mud Volcanos of Baratang Island, it takes nearly an hour to reach the Mud Volcanos.
Spend some time at the Mud Volcanos before being transferred back to the Nilambur Jetty.
The vehicle ferry would transport you back to the Middle Strait Jetty for the journey back to Port Blair on the same route.
The trip concludes with a drop at the hotel in Port Blair.
