Great experience with arnavaz specialy the small things she would point out to make the walk interesting
Dear Sangit, We love this! Bazaars are basically a treasure hunt, and Arnavaz is the best at finding the clues. So glad you enjoyed noticing the "small things" with her — that’s where all the best Mumbai stories live. Thank you for walking with us. Come back for more hidden corners soon! Thanks & Regards, Team KHAKI
We did a tour of crawford market and its surrounding markets and areas. Mr Vasant was our tour guide. He did an excellent job of explaining the history of these areas. The tour was 2 hours long and in the evening so it wasn't too hot. I definitely recommend this tour.

Jimmy was a great guide. He steered me through various bazaars selling different types of items and delivered really interesting information on the buildings, religious and cultural practices and history of the areas. It was amazing to see how real local Mumbai people engaged with buying and selling goods in these bazaars. Definitely recommend it.

Excellent walking tour of Mumbai's Market area with guide Juzer. Early evening tour of Crawford market and the surrounding bazaars. This is the third Khaki tour I have done and they have all been first rate. Meet up was easy at Crawford Market and although the streets are very busy and noisy Juzer managed to show me many interesting aspects of the bazaars and explain the history and significance of each market area - blacksmiths', gold, flower and cloth. It was fascinating and not an area I would have been able to navigate by myself. Thank you again Khaki Tours!

We had an excellent tour of the market and surrounding streets to the north with Jimmy. His historical and recent knowledge of this part of Mumbai shed light on to the streets and lanes we were passing through. The cacophony of people and activity was amazing. We highly recommend this trip for either first time visitors or to those who have travelled to Mumbai many times before. We saw this great city in a new light.
