Elephanta caves, great UNESCO site. Great local guide - Great tour to Elephanta caves (we did only Elephanta, without the half day tour). The guide Sameer was amazing. Sammer and his family are from the island. He explained the caves cravings with a lot of detail, made us pictures and had no rush. He allowed us to take the time we wanted in every place during the tour. The tour was very good organized. We did not need to do any line for buying ferry tickets, etc, or entering the caves. After the tour, the guide even offered us to visit his village if we wanted. I definitely recommend this tour with Mumbai Dream tours.

Fun day in Mumbai! - We did the Mumbai tour and Elephanta caves, our tour guide Sanika was wonderful! She really gave us a cultural and fun tour of all of the main sites in Mumbai and ensured we were safe and happy the entire way! The owner was also super responsive and checked in with us before the tour and after to make sure everything went smoothly!
