Fantastic and highly recommended - Our tour guide, Pooja, was fantastic. She is knowledgeable, patient, and informative, making the experience extremely beautiful, fun, and enjoyable. Our driver, Hassan, who picked us up and dropped us off, was also fantastic, and we enjoyed the ride with him. The food at the local family's place was delicious, and the Indian hospitality was beautiful.

A second look on Mumbai - First of all, I would like to recommend a visit to the Dharavi slum to all Mumbai visitors. The tour gives a second look at Mumbai, in addition to the "usual" sights. Sahil was the perfect tour guide. With his background information, he made the tour extremely interesting.

Eye-opening - Pooja, our amazing tour guide, was not only friendly and funny but also helped us negotiate for bags and treated us to delicious chai. Despite the overall warmth of the community, one unsettling incident occurred when someone in the slum jokingly wielded a large knife at her. It was frightening, but Pooja remained composed and diffused the tension. The tour truly shifted our perception of slums, highlighting the resilience and pride within the community.

Dharavi tour with Aryan - Aryan was a nice young man who gave us a great tour of the area and we had good conversations during the tour. Perfect pace and tour went through both commercial and residential side. Small group which was nice.

Amazing! Not what you think!! - Amazing.. 🤩 😻 🤩 Pooja our guide was fantastic… very informative, knowledgeable extremely friendly and her English is excellent! We had a private, there was plenty of time to ask questions! We even sat down and drank a Marsala tea! To see the slum from her eyes ( as she still lives there ) is eye opening! The slum is not what you think it is, don’t think about booking! Just do it!!

Wonderful City and Slump combo - This was my 2nd trip with Magical Mumbai Tours and it didn’t disappoint. I had a wonderful time seeing all the major city highlights at a good pace. It was also a privilege for me to experience the Dharavi slump first hand, which was certainly memorable. Aryan and Ahsan have been my great company throughout the trip, making it really enjoyable and hassle free. Highly recommended!
