If you’re heading to the beautiful city of Bangalore for a short break, make sure you check out Bangalore tour packages before planning your trip. Known to be India’s third largest city and one of the finest metros, Bangalore has a lot more than what meets the eye. Over the years it has evolved from a Garden City to an IT Hub, now renowned as the Silicon Valley of India.
Lined with cafes, bedecked with bars and steeped in time with temples and architectural wonders, Bangalore strikes a great personal and professional balance, whether you’re travelling for work or leisure. Temples, market areas, forts and more, there’s so much Bangalore tours offer, but that’s not all. There are malls to visit and gardens to stroll through. Pubs to party at till the wee hours and restaurants to feast on some divine delicacies.
There’s Cubbon Park which doesn’t just entice you with a 360 degree view of lush greenery, but also hosts a couple of art workshops on weekends, which certainly sounds like great way to relax! You can then choose to hit the mall, Forum Mall and Garuda Mall being among the popular ones in the city, or can go local and walk through Gandhi Market, while making a quick stop for handicrafts at emporiums.
Follow this up with a relaxed lunch at the fine-dines or the local restaurants like the Mavalli Tiffin Room, and make it a point to take a break for some freshly brewed coffee at a coffee roaster. After some more sightseeing, like the National Gallery of Modern Art and the ISKCON Temple, depending on the tour you pick, end your day with some sumptuous dinner and stop by at a quirky brewery to try some special craft beers. Your trip to Bangalore is incomplete without these.
Although summers tend to get hot, Bangalore packages offer great deals all year round, because the city has pleasant weather for most of the year, so any time is a good time to visit. Most tours are inclusive of travel, but getting around Bangalore is a breeze too, with the city’s metro system which is worth a try.
Being welcomed by the cacophony of hawkers trying to sell their wares at early hours and dancing through the night to loud beats at a popular pub, that’s what Bangalore is all about, and a lot more! It has gorgeous lakes, brightly lit streets dotted with some wonderful shops, vibrant botanical gardens and pretty parks, which originally lent it the name ‘Garden City’, and most importantly, great beverages!
The fragrance of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air as you walk through the narrow streets and the bars welcome you with superiorly crafted beers. While the fast-paced life rushes past you, you sit with a drink in hand, looking beyond the traffic at the brightly lit city, enamoured by its charm, even in modern times.

"Lovely resort overlooking the lake\nWe (two girls) went from Bangalore to Doddaballapur (Bus no. 285M) and from doddaballapur to ujjani from ujjani it took us 10 \nmins to reach the resort the tour organizers came to pick us up.\nWe went for a short trek to experience the amazing sunset, we returned to the resort to play volleyball, badminton and archery. We spent evening around the lake we enjoyed barbecue and campfire.. The food was delicious. We stayed in a tree house. Next morning we sat on top of a tree to watch the sunrise which was a breathtaking scenery after breakfast we went for trekking which was a fabulous experience as it was our first time we went for an easier trek\nTour organizers were so friendly, we felt as if we were with our family… Staff was very friendly and helpful\nWe've been raving about it to all of our friends and family. Thank you for a stay that was memorable and one of the most enjoyable weekend we ever had. Staying here was very unique and fun.\n\nAll in all, we highly recommend everyone to visit this incredible place. \n\n"

"We had taken 7PM-11AM package for 6 people over Diwali holiday. It was well organised and hosted by them. It is located around 75km from Bangalore and drive was also mesmerizing during our time. So, based on overall experience below are my rating:\nHosting: 4/5\nNight Event (Bonfire): 4/5\nTrekking: 5/5( Must attend)\nOutside Activities :5/5( Rapplin, Mud games, kayaking etc).\nFood: 4.5/5\nValue for Money: 5/5\n\nNote: Only thing I didn't like was sleeping in tent. It should have been flat and sponge but rather it was sloppy and uneven. Also, if you close the zip of tent it feels like gas chamber. \n\nOther than this its a must tryout over the weekend...????"

"We booked through Thrillophilia... 2300 for 2days 1 night starting on 1st day 0900 and the camp ends at after a trek followed by breakfast. You will be taken to the mountains in the pic to trek and eventually to a nearby bear cave... The manager guy Anthony is really ambient and so are the staff. They provided us with everything needed without any prior request from our side. You'll be given a camp and according to the package you will be experiencing kayaking, floating or swimming as they call it with life jacket(my 2nd fav) and then you'll have zip lining , rappelling,archery etc., The crew is really ambient and so are the safety instructors... If you're reading this pay pradeep a tip coz he was the reason we enjoyed a lot.... The camp food was awesome and every penny was worth it... Thanks guys Anthony, basavaraju ,pradeep for making this a memorable experience...!"

If there is one word to describe my experience of Skandagiri sunrise trek, it’s stunning! I travelled on this tour alone but made some amazing friends during the trekking. I would personally like to mention that the service by this travel company was simply the best. We were given all the services that were promised to us before the beginning of the Skandagiri sunrise trekking. Highly recommend the team of Thrillophilia for your travel adventure.

A perfect getaway from Bangalore. The good part was that we were left with a complete day ahead of us to explore the nearby spots in Ramanagara. Being a Bollywood fan was overly excited to visit the spot where “Sholay was shot”. I enjoyed it a lot. Planning to visit again sometime soon with my boys' gang.
23 March 2020
Though it was a short trip, the good planning and hospitality of Thrillophilia will always stay with me. I was apprehensive about the service I was about to receive, but I was pleasantly surprised. The car ride was smooth, the breakfast was good, and our guide was patient and helpful. Overall, my Skandagiri night trekking experience was great! A brilliant job by Thrillophilia!
23 March 2020
My first experience of trekking during the night was at Ramanagara. A day time trek to Ramanagara cannot just beat the feeling of trekking and camping under the sky full of stars. I got to meet a lot of new people and had a great campfire. The guide provided by Thrillophilia was very cooperative. I would recommend Ramanagara trek from Bangalore to each and every one who wishes to have a whole new experience.
23 March 2020
Being an adventurous soul I always love trekking but this is the first time I tried Savandurga trekking. With Thrillophilia I loved their overall camping experience and the ambience they create at the site — along with the trek of course.
