Previsit communication with Shrikanth was excellent, he tailored the program to meet our needs. We wanted to get off the tourist trail and he put together an interesting off the beaten track itinerary to suit the hours we had available. Affable man, easy to be with as he shared his knowledge of and life in Mumbai. He also gave us some very good tips of where to eat. Highly recommend. Great Mumbai introduction.

We did the Full Coverage Mumbai City Tour with Chandramohan. It was fantastic how much we saw and how many different aspects of the city we experienced on our day with him. We are sure that we wouldn't have seen half of it with a classic guided tour. He has a great knowledge about the city, the culture, the architecture and everything else which matters. No question remained unanswered, no request unmatched. We enjoyed the day a lot. Chandramohan has a good sense of humour so we had a lot of fun together. Communication with Chandramohan was pleasant, he arrived spot on time and took good care of us. Excellent experience, we highly recommend him as a guide and host!Fantastic day in Mumbai, great guide!

Purvi gave great communication all the way from enquiring through to the end of the tour. We were given plenty of tips and information for our stay in Mumbai. She explained things really well and adjusted the tour to suit our interests and needs. It was so interesting to hear her Indian perspective on domestic and international culture politics and religion. Purvi was kind funny and helpful. Would definitely recommend her city tour that included walking trains and taxis. Felt safe and comfortable

Chandramohan was a wealth of knowledge on the architecture of Mumbai and with a great focus on the Deco vs the Colonial. The ability to walk, train and car along differing parts to the tour allowed for excellent coverage of the spots and of course sample the amazing street food that Mumbai is famous for. Its all about the buildings!

I did the full coverage Mumbai tour and it was totally worth it. As a first time visitor, you cannot experience Mumbai like this unless you are with a true local like Purvi. I had only half a day in Mumbai and in that short time we visited many must see places and landmarks by foot and by taxi. She encouraged me to take the local train on the return trip just to experience the Mumbai commuter crowd and it is a must see in my opinion. Overall it was a great experience and I would totally recommend her if you are doing similar tours in and around Mumbai.Had a wonderful Mumbai flash tour

2 tours with Mohan and 24 laters it really dawns how amazing these were. So starting my review with a big THANK YOU !!! Communication was outstanding from the outset and both pre and post booking. Understanding what we wanted and were looking for. The food tour on the first evening was tailored to the neighborhood where we stayed. We love Indian food and have experience but the chaat, drinks and dishes we tried on the streets of Mumbai brought big smiles on our faces ! Interspersed with very interesting facts and sights, it was great ! Next day, we met Mohan for a longer city tour out of the usual tourist way (but walking that path as well). From the super efficient Mumbai railway system, to the seaside, Bollywood stories, holy sites, the most surprising yummy lassi from a hole in the wall to the breathtaking architecture of the train station, we had it all and enjoyed every single minute of it. On top of that, Mohan remained attentive and courteous throughout !!! Ladies and gents : whilst in Mumbai, let Mohan show you HIS city and it becomes yours as well ! Seeing Mumbai in the best way

Our guide Chandramohan met us with a warm welcome and we immediately began our adventure. We decided to rent an Uber to maximize our time and experience. It proved to be a good idea. Chandramohan brought us to as many sights as we could fit in within our booking. We stopped at local street vendors and were able to immerse ourselves in the culture and food which was delicious and safe to eat. Since we were attending a wedding the following day we asked Chandramohan to bring us shopping for our outfits. He was extremely accommodating and helped us bargain with merchants. We would highly recommend him for anyone interested in getting a fulfilling experience in India. It was well worth the amount we paid for his service. Awesome Experience

We had just a very short time in Mumbai between flights so I wanted to cram in as much as possible. Shrikanth responded to my query very quickly and suggested a suitable tour to see the main sights. He met us on time and took us on a whirlwind tour of Mumbai. We were able to spend as long as we needed to at each sight and I was very happy with the pace of the tour. Shrikanth answered all of our questions thoughtfully and he was interested in helping us to maximise our learning experience of Mumbai. He also took some fabulous photos of me and my daughter which are far better than any of the selfies I had bodged! Thoroughly recommended for anyone that would like an introduction to Mumbai. Fun and interesting tour of Mumbai

She adapted the trip to our interest and we got to visit the Malabar hills and Crawford market - both highlights. Purvi is so easy to get on with that it was like touring with a friend.

When we made the reservation of our tour with Gautam he immediately contacted us to introduce himself and ask what we want to see in Mumbai. As it was the first time we wanted to see the main attractions. He was on time at the meeting point. We were walking, we took a taxi, a tuk tuk and the local train which was a special experience. So we had the absolute Mumbai feeling. We felt safe with him and his knowledge about the City was great. We tried street food which he offered us and at the end we invited him for dinner as a thank you for doing such a good job. I absolutely recommend him as a guide. If I would travel to Mumbai again I would book him again because we had a lot of fun with him and all was professional.Great Mumbai experience

We booked with Purvi on our first day in Mumbai and could not have asked for a better experience. When we decided to change the itinerary, Purvi was very flexible and even recommended a different start time to give us a better experience. She is amazing to talk to and had the most entertaining tales of her adventures - we truly felt like friends by the end of the day. If you are interested in learning more about Hinduism, I’d highly recommend booking with Purvi as she was a wealth of knowledge. I will definitely be booking more experiences with Purvi the next time we’re in Mumbai, if not sooner! Delightful experience

We appreciate getting out and walking while touring and learning about the religious, cultural, and daily life in Mumbai. Thanks to Shrikanth for sharing his expertise and culture with us that was not a sterile experience but rather a genuine, fascinating and eye-opening time! Highly recommended!! A must-do in Mumbai!

We proceeded to walk, seeing many of the famous buildings in this part of Mumbai- we stopped for snacks and drinks which kept us going. He showed us other sights as well but we wouldn’t want to spoil the surprises. He is extremely passionate about his city and it was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with this charming man Please wear good shoes as there is a lot of walking Thank you again Chandramohan- we would highly recommend a walking tour with you A fabulous afternoon with Chandramohan

He had an in-depth understanding of the city's history, culture, and the stories behind its landmarks and was able to share it with me in an engaging and captivating manner. As a solo traveler it was great to get acquainted with the city in that way ! He also shared fascinating anecdotes and insights that brought Mumbai's past and present to life. Mohan's passion for the city was palpable making the tour not only informative but also a lot of fun. Lastly, what truly stood out was his friendliness and approachability.

She was positive, answered our questions, and was sensitive to my mother's needs. When they met for the tour, my mother had different ideas of what she wanted to see and do.

Anyone can find their own way to an art gallery or museum but you can only get a real insight into the heartbeat of a city with a local like Gautam. He knows his city well and was great company as we traversed the city on local buses, trains and auto-rickshaws. We visited the main sights but he also showed me smaller lesser-known places. He is a food lover and was able to track down some tasty local snacks and drinks for us and I enjoyed getting an insight into his life as a Bollywood dancer and choreographer. If you have limited time in the city and want to dig beneath the surface of the usual tourist tour then I recommend spending a day with Gautam. Knowledgeable and Nice

The day with Piyush was great! Out of all of guides throughout India, he was the best we had! He was knowledgeable about the city and was able to answer any questions we may have had. Unlike other guides in other cities, he doesn't take you places to try and get you to buy things, he even helped bargain on a pair of sunglasses for me when they tried to over charge. He took us to a great lunch to get a good first taste into Indian cuisine and recommend us a place for dinner that was also terrific. If you are looking for someone to show you an authentic look of Mumbai, Piyush is the guy to do it!Piyush is the best!
