Dharavi, Dhobighat e Mumbai Dabbawallas

Our tour guide Ganesh is amazing. He is knowledgeable, and maintain good relationships with residents in slam area. We cannot experience this without his support, and much appreciated.

This was one of the most memorable and educational tours I’ve taken, thanks to my amazing guide, Alam. I happened to be the only participant for this time slot due to the weather, so I especially appreciated how courteous and thorough he was during this insightful tour. While weaving through the maze-like paths, he explained what life is like there as only a resident of the neighborhood could. Also, watching people maneuver their way through a chaotic intersection with no working traffic lights was fascinating. I’m grateful that Alam let me watch this as long as I did.

We visited yesterday and our guide Dinesh was excellent. He was punctual, caring and had an encyclopaedic knowledge of Dharavi and everywhere we visited on the trip. Unfortunately the Dabbawallas were on holiday due to a national holiday so Dinesh kindly took us to a flower market instead which did not disappoint. He also provided us with all the key information about the Dabbawallas and he showed us where they would usually be at Churchgate Station. We absolutely loved the train ride to all our locations and Dinesh was full of brilliant advice re navigating the train. Dharavi was a humbling experience. We were greatly struck by the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people and Dinesh was an excellent guide. He is greatly liked and is hugely respectful of all the people we met there and advised us of when it was appropriate to take photos. The Dhobi Ghat was fascinating and again we learnt so much. Dinesh has so much pride for his city it was an absolute joy to spend time with him. The trip communication was fantastic and I would highly recommend this tour. It was an experience we will never forget and great value for money.

Our tour of Dharavi, Dhobi Ghat, and the Dabbawalla system was an eye-opening experience, largely thanks to our exceptional guide. He made sure we all felt safe while giving us an unfiltered, honest look at how much of the world lives. He didn't sugarcoat anything—instead, he explained everything in detail and answered all our questions with patience and insight. What made him truly remarkable was his ability to show us the beauty and resilience of life thriving even in the most challenging conditions. This tour was transformative, and his thoughtful, authentic approach made all the difference.

True Mumbai and true India. It was very touching. The emotions I felt were really strong. This trip changed my perception of India.

My guide is Alam is such a very good guide. He’s very chill and can answer all my questions. You can get a lot of information from him. I highly recommend. This tour is eye opening of the real status of Mumbai.

My guide Alam was so informative and explain well the Dharavi, Dhobi Ghat and Dabbawalas tour. He speaks good english and explains everything in detail. This was an eye opener tour

I took the "Dharavi, Dhobighat, and Mumbai Dabbawallas Tour". Alam was the tour guide, and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to show me around and tell me stories about the harsh realities many people face. I recommend this tour 100% and hope that Alam will be your guide. I learned so much...

This company is great for tours. I used them to do a Mumbai city sightseeing tour yesterday. My guide today Alam was courteous, professional, friendly and very informative. The tour of the laundry and slum were very informative and was great to get an overviews of how people live their day to day lives. I thoroughly recommend this tour! Was roughly 4 hours.

What an amazing tour! It was so nice to see the REAL Mumbai and made it even more special to have a tour of Dharavi by someone that lives there. Our tour guide Alan was superb 😀 If you go to Mumbai would thoroughly recommend this tour so much so I would do it again.
