Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Great tour with Gautam- saw some unseen things and learnt some history. "
"It was an eye-opener for my husband and I. Purvi is a person of the world who has travelled widely, making her very easy to relate to. We did not run out of things to talk about. The entire walk felt like a conversation with a long-time friend showing us her beloved hometown. If we had not booked this tour with her, we would have missed out on a lot of the best spots Mumbai has to offer. Thank you Purvi for making us want to keep coming back."
"Great guide, very friendly and knowledgeable. Flexible on timings and highly recommended "
"We had an absolutely incredible experience touring Mumbai with Guatam. He was able to meet us on very short notice and gave us a full, unforgettable day exploring the city. We started in Dharavi, where he gave us a fascinating look at both the industrial side and daily life inside the community—it was eye-opening in the best way. From there, we took a local train to the famous Dhobi Ghat, then visited Mani Bhavan (Gandhi’s house), which was really special to see in person. We continued on to the iconic Gateway of India, enjoyed an amazing dinner nearby, and then stopped at the massive Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus—truly one of the most impressive train stations we’ve ever seen. We wrapped up the day with a sunset walk along Marine Drive, which was the perfect ending. Guatam was outstanding the entire time—super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about his city. His English is excellent, and he made everything seamless. He even covered water, small gifts, and all train and cab fares without ever making it feel transactional. There was zero pressure to buy anything or do anything we didn’t want to, which we really appreciated. This was easily one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. If you’re visiting Mumbai, do yourself a favor and book Guatam—you’ll get an authentic, unforgettable adventure. Thank you again, Guatam! We’ll always remember this day. Until next time!"
"We had a great time with Shrikanth. He showed us many different places in the slum maze and gave detailed information. He answered all our questions. Enjoyed our tour with another cat lover 😸"
"I booked 2 tours with Purvi whilst visiting Mumbai whilst my husband was working. Both the gems of Mumbai and the markets and shopping tours were great fun and Purvi showed me sights I would have missed if I had been wondering around Mumbai on my own. Highly recommend, especially for the single female traveller "
"We had an absolutely wonderful day with Piyush and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the food and introduced us to a wide variety of amazing local restaurants we would never have discovered on our own. What made the tour truly special was not just the food, but also the personal touch – he shared stories about his own life, which gave us a much deeper and more authentic understanding of the city. It felt less like a typical tour and more like spending the day with a friend. His English was excellent, which made communication easy and the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that gave us valuable insights into life in Mumbai. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for something genuine and memorable."
"Our guide Piyush was very friendly and we felt well taken care of at all times. He guided us with great enthusiasm to a variety of different stops and took care of organizing the food along the way. We also had very interesting conversations about life in Mumbai. The tour with Piyush is highly recommended."
"It is difficult to put into words what a privilege it was to be guided through the maze of backstreets by Shrikanth, to witness what life is like in the largest slum area in the world, Dharavi, of over a million people. We experienced the extremely loud hussle and bustle of market day before diving into a maze of narrow backstreets finding countless small factories run by hard working people. Busy non-stop in the textile & leather industry, recycling metal & plastic, carpentry and pottery. Seeing how religious communities live directly alongside each other yet in cramped and squalid conditions you would find impossible to imagine until you are actually there. We understand the future of the slums is uncertain now since the government has plans to make a new smart city intended to help, but which may change everything, dividing some who may struggle with the change, but hopefully retaining the strong communities who have so far made the impossible possible still transition and continue to survive. Shrikanth was exactly the right relaxed person you needed to inform and pace you smoothly on this unforgettable journey which certainly has put our own fortunate lives back into the right perspective. "
"We had a most amazing adventure with Gautam. He is super knowledgeable about the elephanta caves and also uses the expertise of a local guy there to help with your tour. he is also knowledgeable about everything in Mumbai. He helped us so much with our trip and made it a very enjoyable and exciting experience with very minimal stress. I cannot recommend his services more highly. "
