Additional Information
Known previously as Bombay, Mumbai is a bustling city, the largest in India, and the capital of Maharashtra state. The old name, Bombay, an anglicized version of ‘Bom Bahia’, was a label given by the Portuguese which translates to ‘Beautiful Bay’. In spite of the name change to Mumbai in 1995, both names are still in circulation.
Explore some of the city’s treasures through this guided tour. Visit the iconic Gateway of India which stands at the edge of Mumbai’s busy harbor. Discover the Hanging Gardens, Marine Drive, and the fascinating Dhobi Ghat, Mumbai’s distinctive and vibrant open-air laundry, among other notable sites.
In Dharavi, you’ll find numerous active small-scale businesses, producing embroidered clothes, high-quality leather items, pottery, plastics and more. The majority of these products are produced in diminutive factories scattered across the slum, contributing to both local and global markets. The yearly turnover from businesses in this place is reckoned to exceed $650m (£350m).

Excellent City Tour of Mumbai - This was an excellent punctual
Tour that took in all the sites stayed. It was personalised, so if I needed the toilet or get another drink, the driver would stop. I enjoyed the Gateway of India and chowpatty Beach. The tour can be personalised, so that if there is something not on the tour, it can be added.

Bombay Experience - Kamlesh picked us up at the hotel with a driver and was eager to take us to as many sights as possible. He was very knowledgeable on all aspects of the tour and gladly shared his experiences.
We needed to purchase a specific gift to take back home and Kamlesh did not give up until he located exactly what we were looking for.
I would recommend this experience to anyone looking for an extensive insight into Bombay.

Honestly the best Mumbai experience you can get if you have one day in the city. Don’t bother to try go on your own. - Rahul is a very friendly guide with a lot of knowledge and strong local background.
Tour is highly recommended for anyone who wants to see all sides of Mumbai in one day.
It was well planned and organized tour with few highlights: Dharavi Slum, local bazaar, Gandhi Muzeum, local souvenir shops or lunch at famous Leopold Cafe. It took around 8-9 hours and was truly great experience (100% safe, fair and professional).

This is what a REAL tour guide experience should loom like - My favourite tour guide experience in life so far. Mumbai seen through the eyes of local was something I want to experience. Rahul is the guy. Pro, intelligent, kind and very well spoken. He is all you need from your tour guide. I hope he will be another slumdog millionare. Kudos!
