5.00A very interesting tour that Anu gave us. We've been able to see this local life firsthand. We recommend you to be on the tour wearing closed shoes and hand sanitizer. There were no molested children, probably because we had an excellent Anu guide with us. Everything was safe. Thank you.
Fantastic experience!

5.00Absolutely great experience with Anu on a walking tour in Dharavi. We had a chance to get to know about a daily life of Dharavi residents and businesses, Anu is very knowledgeable and provided a lot of useful information about Dharavi. The trip is very safe, Dharavi residents are very friendly and welcoming. We also made a lot of pictures which is totally fine. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Mumbai who wants to explore the daily life of Dharavi. Thank you very much for the amazing experience!

5.00Amazing guide (Varsha) who's been very nice and professional to us. The tour was very immersive and would recommend it. About the organization and the fees, I think the operators could be clearer about the pickup or not a the hotel, and not overpriced it when a driver comes pickup you.
Time well spent
