An exceptional experience! - Santan is an excellent guide who manages to show you the very human side of the slum in a way were you get close to the lokals in a respectfull manner. I would definitely recommend this tour and Santan to anyone!

A very humbling experience - I love to learn more about the locals and the reality of the people of the countries I visit, and this was a good way to do that. The slums are an alternate reality to what I'm used to so it was a very interesting experience to connect with the people and learn more about their culture and their day to day life. My guide Santan was extremely friendly, and made me feel safe at all times. We talked to a couple of the locals that he was familiar with, and he took me on a short walk around the area. Grateful to him for the experience, will definitely recommend

A must educational experience - It is not my first slum tour, and it was not such a big shock to me, but it is definitely something to experience in order to correct the personal focus. The tour was well organised, the guide was punctual and knew the topic in debth. I can't say I enjoyed the tour as there is nothing to enjoy among people's misery, but I would definitely recommend it as a compulsory part of any trip to India. It will change your perspective about life values. Thumb up from me.

This tour is a must if you want to see all sides of India - Santan my guide was a lovely person. He was very kind and caring and so respectful to the lovely people we visited. He asked us not to take photos once we entered the area which I thought was very considerate and respectful to the people living there. They were so happy to meet us and were fine to let us walk around and look at how they live. They had a lovely community spirit and had shops, food stalls etc. We watched a bakery in operation and sat down in a little shop for a tea. The children were so cute and very interested in us. It was a great experience and I’m so glad I did the tour and would recommend it to anyone. I felt very safe and comfortable. Definitely do this tour!!!

Highly recommended - Santan was a very friendly guy who seemed to know everyone in the slum. I expected guns and crime stories but was shown everyday’s life of ordinary people. Eye opening experience!

Highly recommended for no doubt - For people who being indecisive to take this tour since it’s quite controversial topic - it’s not a tour it’s more like an occasion to get to know the people/lives in the community and share your love. Tbh after this I got complicated feeling since I could offer nothing to change the situation but at least we could learn how the community itself runs sustainably somehow and what would be a significant key to help them become independent. Also, people in the community treat/trust the guide as family that helps me to feel get closer with them. Let’s share your love and learn about one real part of India!

Humbling Real Life Experience! The Best! - The world is so unequally yoked and it kills me to know that some people are living extreme realities, more so than others. It doesn’t make much sense to me but what I do know is Love was Found in ALL SPACES within this tour! Extremely Humbling Experience. Life Changing ✨ This tour was done with such love and integrity! Santan is an INCREDIBLE GUIDE! He had a way of making this NOT FEEL LIKE A TOUR but having us be one with the community who was soo loving , open, curious, and kind! We gave back to the community instead of coming there to exploit them or take advantage. Tell your friends so they too can come give love, energy and connection! I am forever grateful! Go there with an open heart and open mind and leave them with more than you came with! They deserve love and good energy! Be the change ✨
