Dabbawala, Dhobi Ghat & Dharavi slum Tour med lokal togtur
Beskrivelse
Mød Mumbais Dabbawalas! For alle, der nogensinde har været i Mumbai, er Dabbawalas en særlig klasse af mennesker, som alle kender! For de uindviede dog - Hvem er en Dabbawalla? Den nærmeste betydning af dabbawala på engelsk ville være "madkassebud" >Dhobi Ghat (Open Air-Laundry) (Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat) er et velkendt udendørs vaskeri i Mumbai, Indien. Vaskemaskinerne, lokalt kendt som Dhobis, arbejder i det fri for at vaske tøjet fra Mumbais hoteller og hospitaler. Der er rækker af udendørs vaskepenne i beton, hver udstyret med sin egen piskesten. Kaldet verdens største udendørs vaskeri, Dhobi Ghat er en meget populær attraktion blandt udenlandske turister. >Hvorfor er Dharavi hjertet af Mumbai? (Slum-tur) Asiens største slumkvarter Dharavi ligger på førsteklasses ejendom lige midt i Indiens finansielle hovedstad, Mumbai. Dharavi er meget mere end et historisk område i Mumbais fattigdom. De fleste af disse ting er skabt innovativt i meget små rum!

Mød Mumbais Dabbawalas! For alle, der nogensinde har været i Mumbai, er Dabbawalas en særlig klasse af mennesker, som alle kender! For de uindviede dog - Hvem er en Dabbawalla? Ordet "dabbawala" på hindi betyder, når det bogstaveligt oversættes, "en, der bærer en æske". "Dabba" betyder en kasse (normalt en cylindrisk blik- eller aluminiumsbeholder). Den nærmeste betydning af dabbawala på engelsk ville være "madkassebud" Hver dag i hele byen Mumbai leverer 5.000 af dabbawalaerne omkring 130.000 dabbas til kontorer i hele metropolen. I de næsten 120 år af denne tjeneste har dabbawalaernes tilgang forblevet konsekvent: en semi-litterate arbejdsstyrke (dabbawalaerne) henter de fyldte dabbas fra husstandene, der forbereder dem og leverer kasserne til de nødvendige kontorer; de henter derefter de tomme dabbas fra disse leveringssteder og returnerer dem til de oprindelige husstande for at begynde processen igen næste dag.

We learned so much from our guide Rakesh, who is a local from Dharavi neighborhood. It was like visiting the hometown of a friend, sharing about the joys and challenges of his community through both hostorical facts and personal experience. Rakesh had a great sense of humor as well as professional knowledge. I also really appreciated how it was emphasized that picture taking is not allowed in residential areas.
Dhruvesh was exceptional guide for the Tour. He provided complete details of the trip. He being from the same area was an added bonus for me. People in Dharavi area knew him before hand. Overall a definite thums up to the guide & tour.👍

I haven't stopped talking to friends about the experiences from the tour. My local guide Bharti brought so much energy and knowledge to the tour, and with it being her home made you feel very welcome, ie. Not just feeling like another tourist with a camera. You will see a side of the world like no other doing this tour. Plenty of opportunities to get refreshments along the way, as it's Mumbai heat after all! Thanks for an unforgettable day out, Bharti. And for the recipe suggestions!

We had an absolutely fantastic guide with Abhi. He has delighted us very much with his extremely friendly and outgoing nature. He has responded fantastically to our questions. It has enabled us to fully immerse ourselves in the world of Mumbai. We have rarely had such a competent and at the same time friendly guide. He took us into his world and thus gave us very deep insights. Thank you, dear Abhi. When we get back to Mumbai, we will explicitly ask for Abhi at Mumbai Dream Tours.

We had a small issue with the meeting point, but as I've experienced on other tours, it appears to be a viator and not a tour operator issue. It was fixed with a quick message to Viator and the exact meeting point is the ticket office at Churchgate train station. Rakesh was an excellent guide and provided a day of memorable experiences. All 3 activities were fascinating, as was the local train and taxi rides. I would definitely recommend Rakesh and the tour to anyone visiting Mumbai.
