>Dhobi Ghat (Lavanderia ao ar livre) (Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat) é uma conhecida lavanderia ao ar livre em Mumbai, na Índia.

Chamada de maior lavanderia ao ar livre do mundo, Dhobi Ghat é uma atração muito popular entre os turistas estrangeiros. A palavra Dhobi Ghat é usada em toda a Índia para se referir a qualquer lugar onde estejam presentes muitas arruelas. Está localizado ao lado da estação ferroviária Mahalaxmi, na rotunda Saat Rasta da Western Railway. Pode ser facilmente visto da ponte sobrevoada da estação Mahalaxmi.

Conheça os Dabbawalas de Mumbai! Para quem já esteve em Mumbai, os Dabbawalas são uma classe especial de pessoas que todos conhecem! Para os não iniciados – Quem é um Dabbawalla? A palavra “dabbawala” em hindi quando traduzida literalmente, significa “aquele que carrega uma caixa”. “Dabba” significa uma caixa (geralmente uma lata cilíndrica ou recipiente de alumínio). O significado mais próximo do dabbawala em inglês seria o “lunch box delivery man” A cada dia em toda a cidade de Mumbai, 5.000 dabbawalas entregam cerca de 130.000 dabbas para escritórios em toda a metrópole. Nos quase 120 anos desse serviço, a abordagem dos dabbawalas permaneceu consistente: uma força de trabalho semi-alfabetizada (os dabbawalas) pega os dabbas cheios das famílias que os preparam e entregam as caixas nos escritórios necessários; eles então recuperam os dabbas vazios desses pontos de entrega e os devolvem às famílias de origem, para iniciar o processo novamente no dia seguinte.

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!

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.
