Wonderful day in Mumbai with Sho - We had such a wonderful day with Sho. He couldn’t have been more accommodating and he showed us so many interesting cultural highlights of Mumbai. We especially loved the chaotic open air cricket, the famous chai walla and the delicious lunch! We definitely recommend this tour.

Awesome tour! Would highly recommend - I was in Mumbai for a friend’s wedding and wanted to tour the city, so thought this would be a great way to explore given that I was solo. It ended up being an excellent experience as my tour guide Gurmit (Tiger) was super friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating when it came to what I was interested in seeing/learning about. The lunch was delicious (a local place, not somewhere touristy) which I appreciated. Additionally, I felt very comfortable on the tour (as it can be stressful when immersed in a new culture!) and I definitely got a much better sense of the city and surrounding environment. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting solo or with a group - I had an unforgettable experience. Also, shoutout to Gurmit for being a great personal photographer for a few hours :) Thank you!!

Local culture tour - Where do I even begin! Such an amazing time getting to better understand the local ins and outs. From hopping on the local westernline train to experiencing the ferry crossing at Versova to Madh Island. Throughout the day I got to experience 16th century churches to 8th century caves dedicated to Shiva. Gurmit was awesome and helped navigate to new places that he also got to experienced for the first time. As always, lunch was amazing. Gurmit really made the day fun. He made it feel like we were just two people and not just a tour. I want to thank him for dedicating his time. Couldn’t have asked for anything better. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting the Mumbai area.

Great Tour with Tiger (not Woods) - We had a great time with our guide, Tiger, and our driver. They modified the tour to meet our need that we not be on tour for more than four hours; we certainly could have taken in more, but we had been on a cruise for two weeks and were pretty tired. In addition, we had taken a tour on the prior day through the cruise line. Still, they took us to some great places other than the ones we had seen on our prior tour (e.g. hanging gardens, Marine Drive), including the staging area for the vendors who distribute custom-ordered lunches to clients by bicycle, the incredible outdoor laundry market, the Portuguese fort on the beach, past the skyscraper home of the country’s richest man, past Ghandi’s home , and over an amazing bridge. There is s an indoor option to go into the Ghandi home (now a museum) would probably be worth it). Tiger is a native and was willing to share all kinds of information about the educational system, religious traditions, life in the slums, etc. He also negotiated a short ride for us on one of the open air taxis that are about the size of a large golf cart. If you take this tour (and you should), be prepared for Mumbai traffic—jammed, slow, harrowing at times, and noisy; the horn honking is incessant. We had an ambitious pizza delivery guy on a scooter crash into us; fortunately, no one hurt except, perhaps, the pizza.

Amazing tour - We booked a two day weekend tour including the Mumbai city tour as well as the Elephanta caves tour. It were amazing days where we could experience a lot of different places in Mumbai, all of the cities most beautiful places, delicious restaurants, tour guides favorite spots and learned a lot about culture and history. Tiger and Rahil ensured that we had a great experience at any time (also during sudden Monsoon rainfall) and that we could see as much as possible in the two days. We can highly recommend the tour!

Amazing experience - Great tour visiting different temples, markets and shops. Guide Rahil Khan showed me the Gods, Goddesses and Saints and what each one represents and how offerings are made. I was able to make offerings, feed sacred cows and even participate in a ritual being blessed. I tried indian food in clean and organized place. In the markets I was able to buy ingredients to prepare some dishes and especially to make Chai.

Secrets revealed - Wow what a day Rahil and Rajid you did it again setting such a high standard of hospitality that is beyond belief. See things like the Portuguese streets to fishing villages was something we both found to be something that you could never see only in the movies. Of course Rita favourites of course where all the bollywood stars live. Also geeting to see how the stars live on location was beyond her dreams. Food was truly delightful and off course my chai was so good. My 3 year oldson has found a great uncle forever so thanks for looking after us all

Perfect tour! - I arrived in Mumbai late Saturday Night and took this tour the next morning. This was my 1st day of my 1st visit to India. I could not have been happier with the tour and with my guide, Retro. He tailored everything to my needs and as a 68 yo woman who uses a cane I could not have appreciated that more. I got a beautiful overview of the city in just the one day I was able to stay there. Best wishes in your studies Retro...I know you will do well in life. If I am ever in Mumbai again I will definitely use this company again and I understand they have many other locations as well.
