We booked this Nainital Adventure Park & Resort for our children as we adults are planning to go to the Botanical Garden and they will be bored there. The instructors were friendly there and our children loved the idea of the activities there. They enjoyed it so much while we didn't have to worry about them as well. Thanks, Thrillophilia for having an amazing service.
Superb
Their rope activities were so much fun to do and as we passed from one to another it became a bit harder and harder which further makes it even more fun. Great place to spend time having a lot of fun.
