Booked:Mekedatu One Day Trip From Bangalore With Water Activities
Thrillophilia booked our Mekedatu trip, and it proved to be an incredible couple's vacation. Chunchi Falls provided a romantic appeal; the coracle journey was so quiet. Food was good, transfers went smoothly, and the guide made sure we had everything we would need all through the excursion.

Booked:Nature Adventure Camping In Kanakapura
