Action-Packed Day in Mumbai: Dharavi Slum Tour & Private Sightseeing Tour

My daughters and I made the most of our one day in Mumbai with a Dharavi slum tour led by Dhiraj and a city tour led by Shalmali. Shamshor was our reliable driver for the full day. The slum was fascinating to experience in person and Dhiraj explained the history behind it. Lunch was at an actual family’s home with a home cooked meal being a wonderful touch. The afternoon was a frenzied tour covering so many different sites from different periods of the city’s history. Shalmali did an excellent job of explaining it all. The day, while exhausting, was exactly what we needed.

We greatly enjoyed our private tour through Dharavi. Our guide, Varsha, was very knowledgeable and personable, and easily navigated us through back streets and side corridors. It was interesting to witness the industrial, commercial and residential aspects of this community. We highly recommend it.

Great small group tour of Mumbai’s Dharavi Slum area.

Magical Mumbai Tours arranged a great guide, Sneha, who provided a fascinating small group (only 8 people) tour of the Dharavi Slums … visiting both the commercial and residential areas. The people we met on the tour as well as the residents of Dharavi were all very nice and welcoming.

Aryan was a great tour guide for Dharavi!

Aryan was an awesome tour guide!! I went with my mom and we had a great experience thanks to him. It gets super crowded in the evenings so I recommend going before sunset if possible.
