It is not advisable to cramp your holidays covering so many places. The effect will be your travelling time is more than the quality time you spend on site seeing. Andamans require a decent 5 days to cover some major places . Travel by ship from Kolkatta to Port Blair takes more than 3 days. Air travel is a better option. For ship timings, you can see in the Shipping Corporation of India website or tourism.andamans.nic.in. Going to the Andamans, in general, is only once in a lifetime, hence it is preferrable to spend atleast 7 days- 6 nights n 7 days, therein. The period chosen by you is close to the onset of southwest monsoon which may hamper your outdoors. I would suggest you to spend 7 days in the Andamans and on the return, spend two days in Kolkatta and then reach back Delhi. Kanniyakumari can be clubbed either with Tamilnadu or Kerala tour and the ideal time to visit these states is in December.
