One of the most scenic islands in the world, the Andaman Islands enjoy a quiet solitude away from Mainland India, in the Bay of Bengal.

With a plethora of things to learn about — right from India’s freedom struggle, the region’s ecology and biodiversity, to gaining deeper insights into climate conservation — an Edutour to Andaman will equip participants with an array of knowledge and hands-on experiences.
