A memorable heritage walk into the BMC HQ - Our host Nayana spared no effort to make our day memorable. She shared information in her unique storytelling way and everyone seem to loved it. BTW, I'm from Mumbai and I can only imagine how much fun non Mumbaikars must have had.

Awesome Walking Tour of Fort and Colaba - This was an excellent tour where I got to know about the stories behind the people and places that make Fort and Colaba what they are today. Priya, our guide, was knowledgeable and fun, keeping the tour light and informative at the same time. 2.5 hours of history coming alive! Kudos to Khaki Tours for putting this together and working hard to preserve our heritage!

Awesome. Amazing. - We undertook Fortwalk a small heritage tour guided by Mr. Navin Upendran and assisted by Ms. Samanta who had lot of energy and enthusiasm to inspire interest. In a short period of under 3 hours we went through the history of almost 4 centuries, heard interesting stories, learnt many historical facts and fictions and wondered how the city came into its existence and gained prominence. Awesome. Thanks Khaki tours. Its little bit expensive for undertaking more such walks. Once in a while its worth.

The warmth that is old Mumbai - We attended the Girgaon Ganpati walk led by Khaki’s ‘Ambassador of Mumbai’ - Usha Vandavasi and it was a thoroughly immersive experience. We absorbed different facets of our city’s culture, tradition and history that took us back in time. Usha peppered the walk with interesting nuggets of knowledge and also patiently answered all our queries. I was particularly happy to share this experience with my son Mark and have him experience this slice of Mumbai.

UrbsPrima - An enriching tour of the BMC Building - The UrbsPrima BMC Building tour by Khaki Tours was an enjoyable and enriching experience, thanks to Indranil. It was a pleasure to know a few lesser-known facets about Bombay's history, and was a Sunday afternoon well spent. Highly recommended.

Wonderful stories at Urbs Prima - I never had any idea that we could visit the magnificent building of BMC. Attended the tour by Khaki Tours for their Urbs Prima walk at BMC office. There were so many stories inside that one building. Definitely recommend to tourists and citizens alike.
