See Mumbai by air-conditioned vehicle, with stops at the Gateway of India, CST, Crawford Market, Mani Bhavan, Banganga Tank and more. Pickup and route depend on your booking option, and the day can last 5 to 10 hours. Guides such as Ganesh, Abdul and Mujeeb have led tours, but the assigned guide varies.

“I booked a private tour for just myself and it was a great experience. The itinerary covered a mix of highlights and everyday life, for example the Gateway of India, CST, Dhobi Ghat, Crawford Market, and Mani Bhavan just to name a few notable things. Dinesh was a fantastic guide. He shared a huge amount of historical and cultural context that really brought everything together. I especially appreciated how he connected Mumbai’s growth to other global events relevant to myself, like explaining how the city’s fortunes rose during the American Civil War because of the cotton trade. You could tell he has a deep understanding of both Mumbai and India…”
