Very documented tour of Mumbai with very interesting information - Perfect tour of Mumbai with Vicky, he introduced us to many places, train station, market , university, headquarters of Indian Railways, he explained the formation of Bombay, the different names of the city and its nicknames. Shared institutions such as Lunch Box Management. Visit of Dahravi, impressive, Kanheri Caves and Pagoda. Thanks to the driver picking us up from our hotel, no time wasted and very comfortable trips. I would recommend this agency to anyone who wants to get into the spirit of Mumbai a bit. Vicky is a caring, considerate, humorous and highly educated person.

6 hours in India - Had a wonderful tour. We packed a great deal into 6 hours. You don't spend a lot of time at each stop, as they are trying to get you to a lot of places in just a few short hours.

Highly recommend - thanks Dinesh and Sid - Wonderful experience with Dinesh and Sid. We went on a full day tour and hit all the spots in Mumbai and then I went solo on the slum excursion with both of them again and again was an amazing and insightful experience. They are incredibly knowledgable and a pleasure to be around. I would definitely highly recommend!

Excellent Tour of Mumbai by a Fantastic Tour Guide - Sameer and his driver gave us a memorable tour of Mumbai. Sameer was personable, professional, patient and knowledgeable. He was flexible in the tour allowing us to spend extra time in different areas. We saw the Gateway of India, Colaba Market, Train Station, Gandhi Museum, Hare Krishna Temple, Hanging Garden, Open air Laundromat, etc. We learned so much as he explained the different sites. A wonderful tour by a fantastic tour guide. Highly recommended! Thank you Sameer!

See the sights of Mumbai with Sameer - Want the perfect host for your extremely informative city tour of Mumbai? Look no further than Sameer. From our initial meet at the hotel lobby to every stop along the way, Sameer was a true delight and a fountain of information without overloading you. Every highlight of Mumbai was explored. He even took us on a wonderful train ride like a local. From the temples to the streets, every part of our tour was a highlight. Just when you thought you saw the “best” another surprise awaited us. Detailed explanations of the architecture, pointing out the art in nooks and crannies you would have not thought to look at, to answering any and all of our inquires, Sameer is the absolute best. His itinerary was spot on. I wouldn’t have changed a single thing. The car was an absolute dream. The driver was a surgeon navigating the city streets while keeping us cool and comfortable. Want to see it all without feeling rushed and hurried? Want a guide that is patient, professional, detailed, welcoming, warm, friendly and most of all keeps you engaged yet gives you your time to experience things on your own? This is it! Superb isn't enough to describe the absolute BEST tour of Mumbai. Book now, you won’t be disappointed.

Good Trip to Pick - If you want an overall view of the city in one day, this is the trip to pick. We visited all the sights on our wish-list, stopping at a lot of them, and learning much about the rich history of Mumbai. It was so interesting, and fun too. Our guide Siddhi was excellent with lots of stories to tell, a good sense of humour, and a pleasant personality. He joined us for lunch at a local restaurant and helped with the menu. A busy day but totally worthwhile. Viator organised things well, from the booking process up until the trip itself.
