Excellent tour

WooiTuck_G, May 2024

This tour is great value. Pick up at the Hilton airport hotel was included. Our driver Sahajad was certainly masterful in the Mumbai traffic. Our guide Maze was friendly, knowledgeable and above all enthusiastic about the city and her people. Really enjoyed the tour. Recommended.

Excellent tour

Naxhije_B, Apr 2024

Lokesh and Arun were excellent during the tour. Arun, the driver, dropped us off at our hotel despite very heavy traffic and we were very grateful. Lokesh, our guide, was very friendly and taught us so much about the history of Mumbai and various landmarks. He also helped shift our perspective of the slums, too. We didn't know much about them before, only what was presented in slumdog millionaire, which ended up being a very inaccurate representation. Everyone works so hard, and their sense of community and faith is beautiful.

Great

Parameeta_T, Apr 2024

Our tour guide Maze was amazing. Friendly which made us very comfortable. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information about Mumbai. He was with us at every step of the way. So it was a great tour. Thanks 😊

Great

Karlis_J, Apr 2024

Perfect tour if you're on a tight schedule and want to see the most important sights in Mumbai. Loved the train ride and pav bhaji that were included in the price. Both the guide and the driver were very friendly and helpful and the guide spoke excellent English, although -1 star for an unnecessary sexist comment.

Perfect tour of Mumbai…not to be missed. Thank you.

John_B, Apr 2024

Absolutely fabulous private tour for two. Our guide Alum was the best we have in a very long time. He shared his personal stories. He communicated with us the previous evening and suggested we leave earlier than our 10:00 scheduled time and we agreed to 8:30am. There was light traffic due to a holiday and we had plenty of time at each if our scheduled stops. He even added a few extra experiences including a ten minute ride on the central train system at the finale of the tour. Perfect day! Our driver Arjun was professional and friendly. Altogether a wonderful experience!

Fantastic service

Oliver_W, Apr 2024

An excellent way to get a taste of Bombay when on a tight time schedule. We paid a small premium to be picked up / taken back to North Bombay. Nitin was a fantastic and super friendly driver as was our guide Loki who was a charming and knowledgeable guide. Thank you guys for a great tour.

Fantastic Cultural Immersion

CANDACE_L, Apr 2024

Our experience on this tour exceeded all expectations and stands out as one of the best we've ever taken. The tour guides demonstrated exceptional knowledge, providing us with a perfect blend of historical insights, current events, cultural immersion, and scenic beauty. Highly recommended for a truly enriching and memorable journey.

Excellent tour - get a little bit of everything!

Mike_A, Apr 2024

Loved the impromptu train ride and the Fact that we saw so many things in one day. Markets were particular highlights as wouldn’t normally go there without a guide.

A must do in Mumbai

Ellora_S, Apr 2024

A must do in Mumbai, great whistle stop tour! Our guide Alam was very knowledgeable and the driver Mr Pawan was excellent

Great overview of Mumbai!

Matthew_M, Mar 2024

This tour provides an excellent overview of all key sites of Mumbai for any first-time visitor. It was one of our best tours while in India.

Great City & Slums tour of Mumbai

Jeffrey_W, Mar 2024

Booked a private tour of the City and the Slums and was not disappointed. Ganesh was an outstanding guide who was so knowledgeable, funny, and thorough. He made such an amazing effort to ensure a solo travel like myself was entertained and educated. Would 10/10 recommended Ganesh and this tour again.

Lovely evening in Mumbai with Viator tours n travels!

Soma_K, Mar 2024

Me and my girlfriend took this tour ( both women).Our guide Lokesh was very professional and knowledgeable and a true gentleman:) He gave us a detailed explanation to every place we visited. Clicked beautiful pictures for us. Even the driver was very nice, jovial and quite informative. We enjoyed the evening thoroughly with both of them. Thank you and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Mumbai for the first time.

Mumbai in 3 hours

Ken_R, Mar 2024

Seeing the outdoor laundry was amazing. Sunil our guide was brilliant and provided a very comprehensive service.

5 Star Tour of Mumbai

kvtupaz, Mar 2024

This is a great tour for anyone in Mumbai for the first time! My guide Lokesh gave a great customized tour and I was able to see and learn about all the major historical sights in Mumbai. 10/10 Experience!

Wonderful Mumbai

Kristie_L, Mar 2024

Thoroughly enjoyed my day tour of Mumbai! My driver Azeb and tour guide Dinesh were both lovely, very knowledgable and fun too.

Weak Effort

scott_e, Mar 2024

Guide and Driver were late for the pick up although we were advised. Guide was tentative and not in control of the overall tour experience. Did not seem to have a clear plan as to what to see and do. I was consistently asked , "what do you want to see/do?". As a first time visitor to Mumbai, that was why I hired a guide. Driver was new/inexperienced and the guide spent most of his time advising the driver where he wanted him to go. I'm sure that this could be a wonderful tour but I wasn't lucky this time around

Joseph_C, Mar 2024

I highly recommend this tour for those in Mumbai for a short time and want to do a whistle-stop tour of the main sites of interest. Our guide Maze was amazing (pun intended), knowledgeable and humorous. We were a party of 8, all accommodated in an air-conditioned minibus. I loved that we stopped at a well-known street food stall for a vada pav and masala chai, busy with locals. It was a long day (6 hours), but well worth it IMO.

Great Mumbai insight.

Dalilah_M, Mar 2024

We enjoyed our tour, visited Victoria Terminus, Ghandi’s residence, zero point, temple, short train ride, dhoby ghaut etc, our guide Dinesh was competent, knowledgeable, witty and respectful.

So much more than I expected - made my trip!

Alan_C, Feb 2024

Amazing day with Dinesh and Prabhaka! Both were consummate hosts and provided an excellent intro and many insights into the fascinating world of Mumbai. Dinesh gave an immense amount of context and perspective in a short period of time, but also encouraged me to ask questions and invited much curiosity. I had a short time in Mumbai and this experience was a gamechanger in that it unlocked infinitely more than I would have been able to do on my own.

Excellent tour

Carrie_S, Feb 2024

Mr. Pradeep picked us up right on time. Mr. Sunil was a great guide and has so much information to share. He was willing to answer any questions we had. The market was interesting, but I don’t recommend going through the animal/pet section. It was heartbreaking to see.
