Trust Thrillophilia blindly. We decided to have the sightseeing tour in Mumbai on our way to Egypt. It is truly difficult to express our thanks to Mr Mehta and his team in Thrillophilia for giving us a wonderful experience through the day. It was always an angst to get cheated after paying online, my mind was put to ease, by their promptly sent vouchers and always responsive phone lines. I got well maintained car. A very pleasant mannered driver. He showed us the places and took us to iconic spots in time to enjoy the places. It is for his well thought out planning we could reach in Siddhivinayak temple just in time to witness the magnificent evening aarti. We did not face any nagging pressure and insistence to give tips after been dropped at the airport. We had a pleasant tour and a returned with a very pleasant memory of the great city. Thank you very much indeed, Mr Mehta.
