Super experience
The tour was great! The tour guide Rajesh was very personable, addressed all our wishes, explained a lot, and was able to answer all our questions. You can tell that he is from here, as he has many interesting stories to share that only someone who grew up here would know. I highly recommend this tour. Anyone who wants to get to know Mumbai in a more "authentic" way should take this tour.

The best
I had a wonderful experience exploring Mumbai with my guide today! We visited so many interesting places, including Dhobi Ghat, temples, Gandhi’s house, the slum areas, and several other parts of the city. He was very friendly, patient and knowledgeable, and I really appreciated that the tour didn’t feel rushed. I had the chance to walk around, see different sides of Mumbai and learn more about the local culture and everyday life. It was a full and very interesting day, and I felt comfortable and well looked after throughout the tour. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to discover the real Mumbai, beyond just the typical tourist attractions. Thank you for a great day!🌞🥰🌞

A great introduction to Mumbai!
Raj was my tourguide for 2 different private tour experiences. My first night in Mumbai, Raj took me for a night adventure. We stopped at the beach and Raj introduced me to many different Indian snacks. We visited various temples and i learned about how different people worship. We went to a park overlooking the city. It was a beautiful introduction to Mumbai. The next day, Raj tooke me on a full day trip to see every day Mumbai. We walked through the market place and saw many types of crafts andi ndustries... it was amazing to see how these men could recycle every part of a car! I saw the sacred cows and temples. Finally Raj took me to a local restaurant where I tried new dishes. Raj is kind, patient and helpful. I needed to rest sometimes when walking and he gave me the time I needed. I would definitely tour with Raj again.
