Why hire a car with a driver here
Calicut, or Kozhikode, is a city of busy markets, long beaches and some of Kerala's best food. The narrow roads around SM Street and Mananchira get crowded, and parking near the beach is tight in the evenings. A car with a local driver lets you move easily between Kappad beach, the old town and the halwa shops without hunting for autos. It also makes the climb up the Thamarassery ghat to Wayanad far more comfortable, with a driver used to its hairpin bends.

Local tips
- The Thamarassery ghat can see long jams on weekends; start early for Wayanad.
- Dress modestly when visiting the old mosques at Kuttichira.
- The monsoon from June to August is heavy; October to March is best for beaches.
- SM Street is best explored on foot, so your driver will drop you at one end and wait.
