Calicut Wayanad Coorg Kannur Bekal Package- The North Kerala Tour by Groowynd Holidays covers the prominent North Kerala tourist places and the coffee plantation hill station of Karnataka. Kerala for long has continued to maintain its status as the ‘Best Tourist Place in India‘ (Source: AC Neilsen – Outlook Traveler Survey). It is also regarded as the Second (2nd) Best Winter Destination in India after Goa owing to its ‘Scenic Beauty‘ and ‘Value for Money‘. Now with the flow of international and domestic tourists having plateaued, Kerala Tourism is broadening its horizons further north to the tourist places in Malabar area. Once known for its sleepy backwaters, the northern Malabar region that includes Kozhikode, Kannur, Bekal, Nileshwar and Wayanad has untapped tourism potential with numerous places of interest. Bekal is one of the main attractions of North Kerala. Bekal Fort, North Kerala Beaches, Kozhikode Backwaters and Wayanad district with its wild forests of the Western Ghats have always been a treat for tourists coming down on a North Kerala trip. Kannur has its own place in the tourist map of Kerala with uncrowded and drive-in beaches. Now with the upcoming international airport at Mattannur (in Kannur), it is poised to increase the flow of tourists to the Malabar region and will become a major transit hub on any North Kerala itinerary or for those visiting the popular hill stations of South India – Wayanad, Ooty and Coorg.
