Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Prepaid taxis are the most reliable option and are readily available. You can book one from the official prepaid taxi counter located inside the arrival hall, which offers fixed, government-approved rates to various destinations, preventing overcharging. Auto-rickshaws are also available outside the terminal for shorter distances. Ride-hailing services like Uber and Ola are generally not operational in the Andaman Islands.

Rental Cars

Self-drive car rentals are not common. The standard practice is to hire a car with a driver for a full day or for specific transfers. These services can be pre-booked through your hotel or local travel agents. A very popular and economical alternative for tourists is renting a scooter or motorcycle, which can be easily arranged from various vendors in Port Blair town.

Public Transportation

There are no direct public bus services operating from the airport terminal. To use the local bus network, travelers must first take a taxi or an auto-rickshaw to a major bus stand in Port Blair, such as the one at Aberdeen Bazaar. From there, public and private buses connect to various parts of the city and South Andaman at very low fares.
