Customer Reviews

It is amazing, the possibility to see the real life in this part of Mumbai.

Monika Swiatek, Poland

Our guides were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and so, so friendly. I will remember this tour for the rest of my life – it was such an amazing experience. I’ll definitely recommend it to family and friends and hope to come back for the Dharavi tour.

Caitlin Westney, Australia

We did a Holi tour through Dharavi and were just blown away by everything we saw and experienced! The communication beforehand was really easy, the tour guides spoke excellent English, and we felt very safe. Highly recommended, especially for solo (female) travellers!
