What to expect
Dharavi is the largest slum in India. We would love to give you an educational insight of the area, by visiting different neighborhoods and discussing everyday life and social issues of the locals. People in Dharavi are very friendly and welcoming. We start our tour from the working district where you will be able to see locals engaged in different professions and jobs and other half we will tour the residential area. We intent to dispel the negative image of the slum and plan to put part of the profits from tour for social activities.
Dhobi Ghat
It's one of the world's largest outdoor laundry facilities, a vibrant open-air spectacle. Each wash pen is color-coded and passed down through generations, making it a family business. Featured in Bollywood films, it's a cultural landmark. Dhobis use eco-friendly methods, drying clothes in the open air.
Antilia
Antilia, located in the heart of Mumbai, is a modern architectural marvel and one of the world's most expensive private residences.
According to legend, Lord Rama stopped here to quench his thirst by shooting an arrow into the ground, creating the tank. The name "Banganga" is derived from the words "Ban" (arrow) and "Ganga" (river).
Jainism is a minority religion, but it has a profound influence on India's culture and philosophy, emphasizing a commitment to non-violence and spiritual enlightenment as the path to liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
Mani Bhavan stands as a living testament to Mahatma Gandhi's legacy and his tireless efforts to achieve India's independence through non-violence and civil disobedience. It's a must-visit for anyone interested in India's history and the life of this iconic leader.
Crawford Market
Crawford Market is not just a place to shop; it's a historical landmark that reflects the cultural and commercial diversity of Mumbai, and it remains an essential destination for those seeking a true taste of the city's life and vitality.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus is not just a transportation hub; it's an architectural gem and a living testament to Mumbai's rich history and colonial legacy, attracting visitors from around the world.
Gateway of India
The Gateway of India stands as a symbol of Mumbai's history, independence, and the city's grandeur. It's a must-visit spot for anyone exploring the vibrant and diverse city of Mumbai.
The park is famed for its distinctive layout, which resembles a giant shoe, representing the footwear of Mother Earth. From the top of the "shoe," visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the city, including the iconic Marine Drive.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
