From start to finish, dealing with Thrillophilia was easy...We wanted a trip to Russia as well to covered all the major sightseeing of the place within the span of 9-days, the expert understood what we exactly want in a trip, and they customized our trip as per our request and need... Any changes on the trip they informed us and make sure that we are okay with it... They shared the itinerary with us and the way they planned and set the itinerary was truly commendable...Each day was mentioned in detail with the place we are going to covered...We were happy with the plan and they help us with the booking and payment process, Once we land at the place right from the airport we get picked-up on-time, the driver was cordial and skillful, the hotel arranged for us was good and at the main location and we were served with delicious breakfast, The tour guide in Moscow and St. Petersburg was informative and knowledgable and even spoke good English helps and shared the interesting fact about the place... It was a completely stress-free trip. We would definitely use Thrillophilia in the future thank you guys and all your associates

My family first time using Thrillophilia for 12 days trip to Russia, the way they planned the itinerary was impressed us which makes us booked this package, the associated vendor of Thrillophilia who looks after the accommodations, transfers & activities did a great job with all of them. The service they provided was tip-top they kept tracking us to make sure that we had everything as promised. Our highlights were the sightseeing we had in Moscow, Tver, Saint Petersburg, and Peterhof like the park, Museum, church, and lots more... Fantastic!!! Will definitely use this service again in the future booking.

Eg in Moscow we visited Red Square, Bolshoi Theater, Golden domed Cathedral of christ and savior, lots of shopping, and many more and in St. Peterburg we visited Marble Palace, Vladimir Palace, New Micheal Palace, Ficquelmont Places and we explored the famous street and tried lots of street foods too. The stayed in ( Hotels ) was incredible throughout the vacation. Everything from picks ups and drops to the itinerary was scheduled and planned very well by Thrillophilia. The whole trip we had great communication in a very professional way plus they were extremely knowledgable about everything on the trip. We always felt that we had been taken care of the whole trip. Seriously we couldn't have been planned such a great trip without Thrillophilia helps!!!
