Kozhikode Hill Station Tours

Basking in the idyllic setting of the serene Arabian Sea on the west and the proud peaks of the Wayanad hills on the east, Kozhikode or Calicut has all the elements, that fascinate a visitor. There is an abundance of wild and marine life here. Though wild elephants and bisons, are occasionally seen in the forests, tigers and leopards are very few and rare. Barking deer, Mouse deer, Monta lizards, Malabar squirrels, black and grey monkeys, hares and porcupines, as well as, a large variety of avions are found in abundance. The British and Portuguese - along with other Europeans, Americans and Japanese - can still be seen in plenty, tanning themselves on the beaches, strolling through the markets, or getting a nice hot oil massage, in one of the many health resorts that have mushroomed in the tiny beach resort.
