5.00From the organisation to the details, I cannot thank the team enough for the most incredible and inspirational tour. Hannah was absolutely brilliant and a true treasure, making sure we got to see the true Mumbai. We even got involved in a village wedding! Thank you for such a memorable experience with the Jewish insights too.

5.00We had such an incredible experience on our trip with Joshua. He is so knowledgeable, friendly, caring, and really understands the ins and outs of Indian culture and Jewish community there. If I could give him ten stars, I would!
Joshua is the best guide!

5.00Joshua is genuinely the best person to go to India with. He is energetic, funny, and knows everybody and everything. He knows all the hole in the wall spots, and has connections all around India. He was a particularly great tour guide for Jewish India. I learned so much and found it really special to be learning from a member of the B’nai Israel community. I can’t recommend Joshua highly enough. Seriously.

5.00Joshua Shapurkar is genuinely one of the most special people I have ever met in my entire life. He draws on over 35 years of experience to lead once-in-a-lifetime tours. He is immensely kind, knowledgeable, and funny. His street smarts are second to none and I felt extremely safe and well taken care of in his presence. Please choose Joshua as your tour guide. You will not regret it!!
The best guide in India!!!

5.00I’ve taken many tours in my life, specially Jewish heritage ones, and I can say with absolute certainty this has been the best one yet! It totally exceeded my expectations. Every activity was better than the next, and the knowledge the guide Joshua had was unmatched! If you get the chance to go to Mumbai, this is the best ever company to do it with.

5.00We are so lucky to have had Hanna as our guide. Jewish Mumbai came alive. She also took us to the outdoor laundry & we saw the lunchbox distribution. Hanna is a wonderful guide sharing interesting & relevant stories. We needed some information for our next stop to Udaipur and Hanna didn’t hesitate to help. She went above & beyond and truly is wonderful.
Great tour!

5.00Joshua was the most amazing tour guide and made my first trip to India so memorable. He is so knowledgeable about Indian culture and history and explains everything in the most engaging way. Beyond his intelligence and organization, Joshua is an incredible person and you can tell how passionate he is about what he does. His heart and soul shines through at all times. Anyone planning a trip to Mumbai would be silly not to choose Joshua as their guide.
