We might have complained initially about having to get up earl for the tour, but soon after we started it we were very engaged! We had a lovely local guide, Namrata, who shared her knowledge and stories about different aspects of Mumbai. Such a vibrant, busy and industrious city. We visited the fish markets, the fruit & vegetable markets, the newspaper distribution centre, a chicken market and an incredibly colourful flower market, plus much more. We also stopped for a chai en route. Such a treat to see this city come alive in the morning.

Absolutely fantastic, well worth waking up early for! To see Mumbai like this gives such a unique insight into the city’s culture and heritage. KP/Krupesh was a fabulous guide who kept us smiling the whole time and was very knowledgeable. We even went for a local juice and soup after the tour! If you do one thing in Mumbai, I would recommend this tour!
