Itinerary

Gateway Of India
15 min

The Gateway of India is an arch monument built during the 20th century in Mumbai, India. The monument was erected to commemorate the landing of King-Emperor George V and Queen-Empress Mary at Apollo Bunder on their visit to India in 1911. Built in Indo-Saracenic style, the foundation stone for the Gateway of India was laid on 31 March 1911. The structure is an arch made of basalt, 26 metres (85 feet) high. The final design of George Wittet was sanctioned in 1914 and the construction of the monument was completed in 1924. The Gateway was later used as a symbolic ceremonial entrance to India for Viceroys and the new Governors of Bombay. It served to allow entry and access to India.

Flora Fountain, at the Hutatma Chowk (Martyr's Square), is an ornamentally and exquisitely sculpted architectural heritage monument located at the southern end of the historic Dadabhai Naoroji Road, called the Mile Long Road, at the Fort business district in the heart of South Mumbai, Mumbai, India. Flora Fountain, built in 1864, is a fusion of water, architecture and sculpture, and depicts the Roman goddess Flora.

One of Mumbai's landmarks, the Rajabai Clock Tower was completed in the 1870s and houses the University of Mumbai's library. Sir George Gilbert Scott modeled the Rajabai Clock Tower on the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster in London. Local businessman Premchand Roychand contributed to the cost of construction and named the tower in memory of his mother, Rajabai. The tower is 85 m (280 ft) tall and has five storeys. At a height of 9.1 m (30 ft) from the ground, there are eight statues representing the Indian castes.

Mani Bhavan was Gandhi's Mumbai headquarters for about 17 years, from 1917 to 1934. The mansion belonged to Revashankar Jagjeevan Jhaveri, Gandhi's friend and host in Mumbai during this period. It was from Mani Bhavan that Gandhi initiated the Non-Cooperation, Satyagraha, Swadeshi, Khadi and Khilafat Movements. Gandhi's association with the charkha began in 1917, while he was staying at Mani Bhavan. In his November 2010 visit, Barack Obama became the first high-profile international visitor to visit the Mani Bhavan Gandhi Sangrahalaya in the last 50 years.

Awesome Day with Linda Tours

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Shruti and AJ during my time in Mumbai. From the moment they picked me up from my hotel, everything was seamless, well-organised, and incredibly enjoyable. They arrived on time, were friendly and welcoming, and made the entire day feel relaxed and stress-free. They took me to some of Mumbai’s most interesting and iconic attractions, and what really stood out was how knowledgeable they were about every place we visited. They shared fascinating information about Mumbai’s history, culture, people and landmarks, which made the experience so much more meaningful than simply sightseeing. Shruti was absolutely amazing — warm, professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about making sure I had a memorable experience. AJ was equally fantastic, and together they made the tour one of the absolute highlights of my trip to Mumbai. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment and came away with a much deeper appreciation of this incredible city. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour company to anyone visiting Mumbai. If you’re looking for a well-organised, informative, enjoyable and personalised way to experience Mumbai, I highly recommend them . Thank you, Shruti and AJ, for such a wonderful and memorable day! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic Mumbai City Tour with Linda Tours

I had a fantastic half-day Mumbai city tour with Linda Tours and highly recommend guide Aziz and driver Niraj. Aziz was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing Mumbai’s history, culture, and daily life. He did an excellent job explaining the contrasts that make Mumbai so fascinating, from colonial landmarks and local markets to the city’s incredible diversity and rapid development. We visited highlights including Dhobi Ghat, Haji Ali, Mani Bhavan (Gandhi’s home), and saw everything from the famous Victoria Terminus to the incredible skyline and local neighborhoods. Aziz shared so much interesting context about Mumbai’s religions, transportation system, food culture, and history, while also making the tour feel very personal and easygoing. Niraj was an excellent driver who navigated Mumbai traffic calmly and safely, which definitely added to the experience. As a solo female traveler, I also felt very comfortable throughout the day. The tour was informative, well-paced, and gave me a much deeper appreciation for Mumbai in just a few hours. I would absolutely recommend Linda Tours, especially Aziz and Niraj, to anyone visiting the city for the first time.

Operator response

Thanks also to Santosh, who was extremely kind and an excellent driver. It's important to visit Mumbai and have as much information as possible. I think we were extremely lucky with this company. I highly recommend them.
