Fabulous! - Vasha was our tour guide and she was phenomenal! We felt safe and she had such a kind and calm atmosphere. She gave us first hand experience about what it’s like to live in the slums. Thank you so much, we really enjoyed. Our driver Asan was also great, on time and a pleasure to drive with.

One of the most immersive experience in India! - The tour was amazing! I’ve done it with the local guide Aryan and he was great explaining how everything works and taking us around the place. That wouldn’t be the same without him, we could feel part of the community for some hours. He’s an amazing young guide with great english by the way!

Nice tour - Pooja was amazing friendly. She was waiting for me when I was late and I got a single tour. She told me everything about Dharavi and I felt very comfortable with her going through the place. Pooja has a good way of humor - a bit sarcastic but I loved it. Just do the tour with her. You will love it.
