Mumbai med en lokal forfatter - Privat heldagstur med bil/bus/cykel
Beskrivelse
De siger, at Mumbai ikke er en by. Det er en følelse. For at forstå den følelse, du har brug for nogen, der blev født og opvokset i denne by, skrevet om det og gik sine gader med nysgerrige rejsende i 8 + år. Jeg er Takshak, en udgivet rejseforfatter; min bog 'An Away Game' følger tre Mumbaikars forfølge FIFA World Cup Final til Rusland, hvor de møder folk fra hele kloden, tegne tråde mellem Mumbai og den bredere verden. Det samme øje for historie er, hvad jeg bringer til hver tur. Min kone, Neha, er en Bollywood koreograf, der slutter sig til udvalgte turnéer, der omdanner eftermiddagen til en praktisk danseoplevelse, som ingen sceneshow eller kulturel forestilling kan kopiere. For dem, der er tiltrukket af Mumbai's åndelige og filosofiske dybde, giver min 'Hinduism Iceberg' serie på YouTube dig en fornemmelse af at udforske landets kulturelle sjæl. Bemærk, at du er helt fri til at tilføje eller springe et par steder efter din smag!
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Dette er fødestedet for de indiske jernbaner, hvorfra det første tog startede. Meget historisk værdi og smuk victoriansk arkitektur! Også et verdensundersøgelses UNESCO-arv.
Byens kunstknudepunkt. Dette sted har et kunstgalleri, et museum og et bibliotek, alle ved siden af hinanden. Du kan bruge så meget tid, som du vil, i en af dem eller dem alle!
Et af de mest ikoniske steder i Mumbai, er Indiens Gateway normalt på toppen af at besøge steder for rejsende.
Det ikoniske Taj Mahal-hotel, også berygtet for terrorbombningerne i 2008! Du har set dette luksuriøse hotel i nyheder og film. Tag et smugkig her!
Dette ser ud til at være mere europæisk end indisk, da du vil se horder af rejsende på gaderne her, købe indiske tilbehør og kunsthåndværk eller nyde en øl på Leopolds cafe
Også kendt som Big Ben of Mumbai, dette er en kopi af den originale London Big Ben og er nu et UNESCOs verdensarvssted, som er omdannet til Mumbai University
Endnu et UNESCO-verdensarvssted, denne mammut victorianske struktur er oversvømmet med advokater og advokater, hvis du har nogen klager over turen! :D
Kendt som 'Dronningens Halskæde', ser denne buede vej ved havet faktisk ud som en halskæde, når gadelyset tændes efter solnedgang!
Mens Juhu Beach er den mere populære, er denne lille strand i byen også besøgt af mange rejsende
ISKCON-templet har flere grene over hele verden. Imidlertid er denne i Mumbai placeret ved siden af stranden, hvilket gør det specielt!
Mumbaikars gør det til et punkt at besøge dette tempel og søge Herren Shivas velsignelser, en af de ældste i byen!
Det første engrosmarked i Mumbai. Hvis Amazon havde en fysisk version, ville det være dette - sælger alle produkter fra A til Z. Det er dog berømt for krydderier og frugter!
Et hus til $2 milliarder til den rigeste mand i Indien! Yeah, det er rigtigt. Vi ved, at Indien har billedet af at være fattigt, men her er et sted, der engang var den rigeste boligadresse i hele verden!
Verdens største åbne tøjvask, noget som er meget unikt for byen Mumbai.
Nyd et fugleperspektiv af byen fra denne have på toppen af en bakke!

Hvad er inkluderet
Afhentningssteder og tider
Vi afhenter dig fra det hotel, du bor i. Bare lad mig vide navnet, så er vi der. Det skal bare være inden for byens grænser, og vi vil komme og hente dig og også droppe dig til dit hotel efter turen. Bemærk venligst, at hvis afhentningen foregår uden for hovedstaden, dvs. Navi Mumbai eller North Mumbai (nord for Goregaon), opkræves der et tillægsgebyr på ₹2,000.

We truly recommend Takshak. He knows answers for all the questions :)
Takshak was amazing! He took us to the best places, thoroughly explained everything we were seeing and was incredibly kind. He was born and raised in Mumbai so navigated the city with ease. There were four of us, including two young kids and he was great with all of us! Would take another tour with him in a heartbeat.
Thanks so much Kavita! I had an amazing time with y'all as well. Thanks to you & your uncle, I got to know of the hidden gem of an antique shop! If you happen to visit Mumbai anytime again, would love to cover some more places :)
We had a great experience with Takshak. It was a private tour so we were able to personalize. We got a good overview of some of Mumbai most iconic places. Enjoyed the conversation about culture, film and books. And got some good recommendations from him.
The tour was randomized, lacking in structure and organized planning. As a customer you tell the guide your interests in the morning and he/she as the local expert will create a day plan. The execution of the tour was not smartly planned (e.g., a random stop at an ugly beach that has garbage on the dirty sand and no water as it's very low tide, because the guide needed a cigarette break). The guide smokes and it seems to get in the way of the tour guide job, such as edginess throughout the day because of craving for a cigarette. Overall not bad but I wouldn't recommend it. On the positive side he speaks decent English and drives safely.
This is a very busy city but our guides made it easy and safe to travel around. Both tour guides were wonderful and super nice. Great English!
Overall an absolutely wonderful experience! We saw a lot and even got some good food on the way! Our guide Takshak was very informative and knowledgeable about the history of the areas we went to! He was also very friendly and arrived on time! We had a great experience and with him and we wished we had more time to vacation there and have him guide us to more historical sites! 100/10. Would recommend!! 5 stars!
Takshak has done a great job curating this tour to cover all the main spots in Mumbai! My husband and I very much enjoyed this tour and our time with Takshak. He did not rush us and allowed us to spend as much time as we desired at each location. If you are in Mumbai, I highly recommend booking this tour!
I took the tour with family and it was great trip with Takshak. He gave detailed information on each spots. Very flexible and customised the tour as per our interests. Trip started on time and vehicle was clean. I would highly recommend this tour.
Here you are guided through the city in a very pleasant, competent and considerate manner. You are given options in a friendly manner, allowing you to decide for yourself what you want to see and how intensively. There is no set program, and you can always add new requests outside of the tour. We saw the Cinema Museum. It was a wonderful day and we were able to see everything that was on offer and more.
Neha expertly guided us around Mumbai in a comfortable AC car. She was very flexible with the places we wanted to see and told us much about living in Mumbai and the sites we were visiting. Her English was excellent. We had a truly memorable day.
