A whistlestop tour of Mumbai - everything – and Krupesh was the ideal companion to help us acclimatise to the city. He was very knowledgeable and great company, plus an excellent photographer! We really loved the concept of the programme, taking in all of the senses, and the highlight for us was a Bollywood dance class and a trip to the spice market. No Frontiers tours are ideal for people seeking variety and more interaction, rather than simply visiting monuments with a guide – they’re very creative, hands-on and immersive.

A fascinating history lesson in Mumbai - We had a great experience mostly due to our wonderful guide Aman Wallis who regaled us with such interesting stories and made the history of Mumbai come alive . Due to circumstances, we couldn’t complete the whole tour but learnt more in a few hours than we ever thought possible .

Perfect trip to know about Mumbai - I did a trip with Krupesh and I highly recommend him! He even changed the schedule last minute for my preference and made it more comfortable. After my trip with him, I know many fun facts about Mumbai and fully experienced the real jewel of Mumbai.

Great experience, with guide Heer - I recently experienced the 5 Senses tour in Mumbai, and it was absolutely phenomenal! Our guide, Heer, was amazing – knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly friendly. The sightseeing tour of Mumbai's iconic landmarks was both informative and breathtaking. The spice market visit was a sensory delight, with vibrant colors and intoxicating aromas. To top it all off, the Bollywood dancing class was an absolute blast! This tour truly lived up to its name, engaging all five senses and leaving me with unforgettable memories. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

5 Sense Tour of Mumbai - don't miss it! - We did the 5 Senses tour with Nami and it was excellent. We covered so many aspects of Mumbai (everything and more on my wish lit!)and Nami shared lots of interesting information and history with us. We started at the Taj Mahal Palace and Gate of India and then detoured to a local outdoor laundry where we could walk amongst the basins and see the lines of laundry drying in the sun, before heading to the colonial precinct. We were amazed how many UNESCO sites there were and the architecture was stunning. We walked out onto the Oval to see 100s of cricketers practising, it was quite surreal. Then a short train ride from the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus took us out of the city and into the suburbs. This was a great experience , the terminus its self was stunning and it was interesting to get an insight into how the local move around this city, thankfully it was a weekend so there was no problem getting a seat, during the weekend days locals hang onto the side of the trains. We then visited a local spice market where family masala recipes handed down through the generations were made up, here the suppliers mix and warm the spices before they are pounded ready for use, all under the watchful eye of the local wives. It was a fascinating experience and an assault on the senses! Nami shared her family recipe with us which she had made up for us as we watched. After a lovely lunch we headed to a Bollywood dance class. This was great fun and our instructor was very patient with us, we laughed a lot although the video of the final dance is probably not for general viewing! We had a driver with us throughout which was great as we could move at our own speed and also include things which were interesting to us. I am a big architecture fan so Nami added a trip down marina Drive to see all the art deco buildings (the second biggest concentration after Miami). We would thoroughly recommend this tour and our guide.

Great informative day. - We agreed at the beginning of our day what we wanted to do and that's what we did. Saw all the sights, delicious lunch (with my nut allergy catered for), danced some Bollywood and ended up with some retail therapy. Best tour so far.

A FABULOUS DAY IN MUMBAI WITH OUR GUIDE AMAN - Well wow! Our guide Aman regaled us with the history of Bombay/Mumbai at the Gateway of India at the start of a day filled with brilliant experiences: the dabbowallas and their incredible lunchtime tiffin service throughout the city; the dhobi ghat - a laundry system like no other; a trip on a local train from the astonishing station (formerly Victoria Terminus); the spice market where people go to have their secret family recipe for masala made up; a delicious lunch in Folk. Aman was super accommodating as we wanted to replace one or two locations with two personal location requests.

Amazing tour of Mumbai - you’ll want to come back - This was a truly memorable tour, which incorporated sights and experiences that gave us a taste for Mumbai and a desire to return in the future and see more. Sight - magnificent architecture and lots of information about the history of the city. Smell - the fantastic spice market, where our guide treated us to some spices to take home and use in our cooking - to remind us of our wonderful holiday to India. Taste - lunch in a really nice restaurant. Hearing - the amazing infectious Bollywood music that accompanied our dance class. Touch - touching the lives of the local community with a local train ride - no air conditioning, but electric fans fixed to the ceiling and no doors!!! Thanks to Namrata Ghandi, our guide for her warmth, enthusiasm, knowledge and great sense of humor.
