Itinerary
- 1You will be picked up from your hotel in Kannur and driven to a village temple or a Hindu home where Theyyam is performed. The timing of the ritual is based on the lunar Hindu calendar and keeps changing each month. On reaching the site of the ritual, you may take pictures of the performer and his elaborate costume. If you are lucky you might get to see a fire Theyyam, which is performed from time to time, again based on the lunar calendar. The entire ritual can last for several hours. The elaborate costumes and the heavy make-up of the performers add to the mystical aura of the ritual. At the end of the performance, you will be driven back to Kannur and dropped off at your hotel.

- barbaracM7649DZ0 contributionsScam!This tour is grossly overpriced and I am requesting a partial refund. The mangrove is nothing but a tourist trap with no wildlife and polluted water. The guide had very basic English and didn’t have much to say at all. It was a long and boring day not to mention a complete rip off. The only good part is the temple. You can easily take a Uber there for very little money. I am not only disappointed but outraged at the cost.Written September 14, 2024

- Joel C0 contributionsDont go Dont tryA restaurant this size and bigger expectations fails on most counts Lets start with their reservations well the take pride in no reservation, but the truth is there are special people seated who have had a backdoor reservation I get a corner sest after a 30 min wait, and boy, i realise the absolute doldrums that the cleanliness is in. My upholstery was dirty, and so were the surrounding walls floor. Ehh I ordered the lamb kebab, the chick tandoori, their acclaimed bukhare dal, and some breaks. The lamb was a disaster. Never eaten something so bad. It was like beaten black and blue and yet left uncooked. The chicken was dry chewy flavourless. The dal was very avaerage and lacked any punch. The staff is courteous though doling out these dished in batches and quickly. Even a catering food would be better. Never again and wudnt even advise a try.Written August 17, 2024

- Y3276FPnicolem0 contributionsAmazing cooking class - so much more than just that, it was a truly memorable evening that we'll never forget!An incredible cooker experience with Mr Singh! He went out of his way to make us comfortable, and we had an amazing evening learning how to cook various breads and curries. When we arrived we were welcomed warmly and then taken to the local vegetable & spice market. Our host kindly helped us purchase some spices to take home too! Then when back we settled near a traditional fire, to enjoy drinks and make bread. We each had a go, which was a lot of fun. After that we watched an amazing puppet show from local artists, then enjoyed a amazing cooking class where we made several dishes. Afterwards we sat down to enjoy the fruits of our labor with our host, and had a lovely evening learning more about the history of the area, the house and his family. Truly a great experience that we couldnt recommend more highly. A memory we will take with us forever!Written July 20, 2024
- udayuday19750 contributionsBukhara- The Best Food served by the best peoples.One of the best restaurants in the world; there is no comparison of Bukhars Food, and above this, the service and courtesy by the staff. We had a lunch with friends, and we were hosted by Mr. Vinod Dondiyal, What a person he is, polite, polished, courteous, and his service added the additional pinch of flavour to the food. He is an asset to Hotel. Other staff was also great.Written July 15, 2024
