Malabar’s most beautiful hillstation, Wayand, is an emerald green paradise full of nature’s most precious treasures! Located in the north-east part of Kerala, Wayand, or “ the land of paddy fields,” is one of those destinations that is responsible for Kerala’s reputation as the ‘gods own country’ around the world. Lush green paddy fields, meadows, mountains reaching to touch the sky, emerald hills covered in tea plantations and other spices, lakes, waterfalls that come alive in the monsoons, and wildlife sanctuaries packed with the Western Ghats’ most precious collection of flora and fauna—Wayand is truly the garden of Eden on earth.
Go Around the Globe’s Wayanad tour packages from Kerala beckon you to experience this paradise in its full glory! With more than 20 years of experience in the industry and thousands upon thousands of happy customers, we have made a mark on the map as one of the most trusted and loved travel companions in India, and we can't wait to open the new doors for you to the worlds’ that are unseen.
Why should you visit Wayanad?
Wayanad is everything brilliant that the magnificent western ghats have to offer mankind, so the question of why you should visit here is almost irrelevant. Wayanad is a safe haven for adventure seekers and travellers who want to embrace nature in its full glory, and our Wayanad tour packages from Kochi feature the perfect ways to get to know this misty wonderland most intimately. Even though, for decades, it had been a favourite destination among tourists who wanted to know the real “god’s own country,” the lush jungles and pristine waterfalls of Wayanad are still unadulterated, so here you can witness the real raw beauty of species-rich rainforests.
Weather and seasons in Wayanad
Like most hillstations in India, Wayanad experiences cooler temperatures throughout the year compared to the mainland, ranging between 17°C and 29°C. This consistent and convenient environment and temperature make Wayanad a place you can visit comfortably all year. In the summers (March to May) and the winters (October to February), Wayanad is calm and pleasant, ready to be explored and enjoyed by curious visitors. This is also the best time to spot wild animals and exotic birds in the wildlife sanctuary if you are a wildlife enthusiast. In the dry months, you can also experience the wonderful culture and way of life through the festivals you witness here.
However, if you opt for our Wayanad tour packages from India during the monsoon months (June to October), you will witness a whole other face of Wayanad—vibrantly green and brimming with new life! The monsoon breathes new life into the waterfalls and transforms the hills and jungles with vibrant hues of green. During this time, you can enjoy water sports such as kayaking here and enjoy cosy, drizzly evenings with strong tea and local snacks. Even though the dry season, especially the winter, is more apt for sight-seeing and many other activities such as trekking, if you are craving a low-key monsoon paradise and not a touristy experience, the monsoon is the best time to visit Wayanad!
Wonders of Wayanad
Wayanad tour packages from Go Around the Globe cover all the best-kept secrets of Wayanad, and according to your preferences and budget, you can customize your itinerary too.

Edakkal Caves: If you are a history buff who loves mystery and adventure, Edakkal Caves, standing 1200 metres above sea level and almost 30 metres long, is a spot you shouldn't miss on your Wayanad trip. Dating back to the Neolithic era and believed to be as old as 6,000 BCE, exploring the petroglyphs and rock carvings of Edakkal caves is one of the most exciting activities you can do here.
