I had an incredible experience on the tour of Elephanta Caves! The caves themselves were interesting, but what really made the tour stand out was Purvi. From the moment we met, she was very friendly, and knowledgeable, making the entire excursion feel like a personalized adventure. Beyond the historical insights about the caves, she went above and beyond by giving me tips on how to make the most of my time in the city—suggesting great places to eat, shop, and visit. I truly felt like I was spending the day with a friend, rather than just a guide. If you're looking for a memorable and enriching experience, I highly recommend Purvi for this tour!Purvi was great!!

I had the absolute pleasure of having Gautum as my tour guide during my visit to India, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. As a foreigner, traveling in a new country can sometimes feel overwhelming, but Gautum went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and taken care of at all times. From the moment the tour started, he was incredibly attentive, ensuring I was well and fully enjoying the experience. His knowledge about the culture, history, and local traditions was truly impressive, and he made every stop on the tour feel meaningful and exciting. What stood out the most was his genuine care for my well-being, constantly checking in to see if I needed anything and making adjustments to the itinerary when needed. Thanks to Gautum, my trip to India was unforgettable. He is not just a guide but also a great companion who ensures his clients have the best experience possible. I would give him 10/10 without hesitation. If you’re looking for a tour guide who will treat you like family while showing you the best of India, Gautum is the one!Gautum, the best tour guide in the world

I wanted to buy some local fabrics to then make my clothing with a taylor at home. Purvi took me to the local market and showed me textile I didn’t even know that existed locally - silk Ikats, colorful embroideries on tulle / organza. It was exactly what I was looking for. Purvi made it feel like shopping with a friend BUT at the same time she was 100% in charge of logistical aspects - communicating with the sellers, making sure I can pay by card, getting me a taxi back to the hotel. Without Purvi I would just never find the place / the right sellers. Thank you Purvi ! Interrsting efficient and fun experience

Gautam its a very gentle, helpful,accomodating guide. We did the Elephanta caves tour, he was very attentive of me among the crowds. He also explained very well every important aspect of the tour. My only dissapointment was the careless way such an amazing place is treated by locals and the Government which its the actual responsible for such a beatiful World Heritage place.Brilliant

Purvi is a topclass tour guide. She is very friendly, spontaneous, supportive and highly knowledgeable. Perfect company to discover India (In my case Mumbai - Elephanta Caves). She made me feel very comfortable and could catch my attention with her personal stories and professional knowledge. She is also a woman of the world. She has travelled a lot and that makes her open minded towards other people and cultures. A personal thank you from my side to Purvi! If I return to India I will surely book her again. Simply wonderful

To sum it up, Gautam was an awesome guide! We had an excellent day exploring Elephanta Island, learning about the caves and carvings and the different Hindu Gods. Gautam also included lots of information about Mumbai, its culture, and he provided recommendations on where to go for food and drink! As an added bonus he photographed and took film clips from the entire day and sen them at the end! I will definitely book Gautam for additional tours the next time I am back in Mumbai!Memories of Mumbai

We are a family of 5 (including kids aged 18y, 15y and 10y) from the UK. Initially had thought to visit the caves with a guide book in hand but glad we opted for a tour with Purvi instead. She immediately clicked with all the kids and kept an eye on them throughout. The historic information was fascinating. The general conversation flowed very easily and it was like touring with a friend. Purvi gave us tips and ideas for the rest of our trip which we couldn’t get in a book or online. We enjoyed our time with her so much that we’ve booked another tour with Purvi in a couple of days time! Fantastic tour and great guide

Having Purvi with us for this trip was initially a question of if it was necessary or worth the cost, but after we finished we realized it was all not only worth it, but it made it all such a better experience than we could have imagined. If you are a person new to India or someone with children and want to have the experience of visiting these Caves, then having Purvi there is a must. Not only was she great with the kids and very aware of their wellbeing and asking them good questions and caring for them, but she also helped us navigate the tricky ticket system involved that I wasn’t prepared for (even though I did my research online beforehand). There were at least 5 or 6 different situations where we had to have tickets or pay a toll and without her it would have not only been incredibly stressful but also we probably would have overpaid significantly (she even helped negotiate buying some trinkets on the way down from the caves). As the father who wanted to make sure everyone was safe, having her there made me so comfortable that I was actually able to enjoy the time rather than worrying the whole time. We booked our time the first afternoon after arriving in the country. It was the first time for any of us in India and the first time outside the US for our kids. Before we met her she was already giving us restaurant recommendations and was flexible with us when things took longer than we thought. We met near the ferry in a nice area and she guided us through the complicated entrance after pre buying the ferry passes for us which saved us a lot of time. She made us all safe getting onto the ferry and then spent the next hour talking with us and our kids, playing games with the kids, and making it such a great memory for them. When we got there she helped us figure out the getting to the caves and past all the people trying to sell us tours. She was patient with us getting up the hill and helped us figure out how to pay for the bathrooms as well. Once we got to the caves she helped us get the right passes into the caves and then when we got in she was amazing at finding great places in the space that weren’t crowded to tell us all the history behind the carvings and then also patient when our kids asked a ton of questions. She was able to be flexible with some of our kids hitting a wall of jet lag and heat and figured out how to adjust her plan for us to make it special without being too much. On the way back she also helped us get a treat for the kids (and pay the right price) and made sure we made the last ferry off the island (which wasn’t posted anywhere that I saw). The whole time we watched out for us and made sure all the kids were there and didn’t run off. She was also playful with the kids and let them be kids rather than expecting them to be adults. The ferry ride home she played games with the kids and helped them feed the seagulls that followed the boat (this might have been their favorite part). Overall, it was such a great experience that probably would have turned out to be a nightmare if we tried to navigate alone. Purvi also answered our random questions about things in India and helped us with things like prices to buy dresses for a wedding and what to eat the next day for street food along with making our kids feel safe and speaking to them like people. In addition to this she has experience in other countries so she understands what we were going through. Would give her an 11/10 if I could. Can’t recommend highly enough. Amazing - A must for foreigners with kids!

This tour exceeded my expectations. As a solo woman traveler who is india for first time, I was not sure if it is safe to use withlocals. But my experience with this tour and tour guide will remain with me forever. My friends said it is not safe to navigate india alone, sure this experience proved that idea to be totally wrong. I had lots of fun with Purvi, she is absolutely amazing and well informed. A fascinating role model of professionalism, light heartenedess and exceptional service. She even offered to start together and take transportation before the tour. But I missed that because my hotel was close to gate of India. She made sure I was safe while climbing to Shiva caves. 💯 recommended and worth every penny really. Love ❤️ itAmazing

I had a wonderful experience on this city tour in Mumbai. Mohan was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and what made the tour stand out was how well it was tailored to my individual interests. I felt like my preferences were truly taken into account, which made the day even more special. We explored a variety of fascinating neighborhoods and cultural landmarks, and one of the highlights was tasting local delicacies at several street corners. From spicy snacks to sweet treats, the food stops gave me a real sense of Mumbai’s vibrant culinary scene. Overall, it was an engaging, flavorful, and very personal way to discover the city.

Gautam was a great guide. We saw many aspects of work and life within Dharavi. We were able to interact with the locals with Gautam’s help, including tasting some baked pastries and playing street cricket with the kids. After the tour he helped me get on the correct train back to my hotel and I experienced another important aspect of life in Mumbai - train travel.Interesting and knowledgeable

He took us to great spots, we would not have found any of them by ourselves. He’s a real foodie which was exactly what we wanted. We had so much fun - thanks Piyush. A great evening

Gautam was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, great English, very accommodating and helpful throughout. He actually met us at the hotel and took us to the Dhobi Ghat laundry by local bus and then train we probably wouldn’t have otherwise experienced. The tour of Dharavi was really good and definitely took us to places we wouldn’t have found or been comfortable visiting on our own. Highlight was the Dharavi leather shop which was featured on James May’s tour of India on Amazon Prime and meeting the owner. My kids especially liked that they had AC in the shop which was a lovely respite from the hot weather that day! Too many other interesting things to mention, but Gautam was an amazing tour guide throughout!Dharavi and Dhobi Ghat Tour

Gautam war ein sehr guter Begleiter und erfahrener Guide durch den Dharavi Slum in Mumbai. Ohne ihn hätten wir uns nie getraut, den Slum zu betreten. Auch unsere beiden Söhne (11 und 14 Jahre alt) waren von der Tour tief beeindruckt. Er zeigte uns die vielen Gewerke und verschiedenen Areale des Slums und konnte uns viele interessante Fakten dazu berichten. Vielen Dank dafür! Wir haben es nicht bereut diese private Tour gebucht zu haben. Tolle Führung durch Dharavi

I had a truly eye-opening and memorable experience visiting the Dharavi Slum in Mumbai, thanks to Gautam, my incredible guide. From the start, it was clear he was deeply familiar with the area—not just the layout, but the history, the industries, and the rich cultural backgrounds of the people who live and work there. His knowledge added so much depth and context to what we were seeing, and I learned a great deal throughout the tour. What really stood out was how respectful he was to the residents and the businesses we encountered. He moved through the community with care and thoughtfulness, always prioritizing the dignity and privacy of the people who call Dharavi home. It was a powerful experience, handled with sensitivity and insight. I had a great time and would highly recommend doing this tour with Gautam to anyone looking to understand more about this vibrant and resilient community.An Insightful Journey Through Dharavi

Chandra provided my wife, Gill, and our friends Andy and Kaye, with a fantastic start to our holiday in India. Chandra was charming. His knowledge of Colaba, its iconic buildings, and the people who lived there made a three and a half hour walk simply fly by. If you are short of time or tired after a long flight, like we were, this tour is a perfect introduction to Mumbai. Chandra’s expert guidance and engaging personality made us feel instantly welcomed and intrigued by the vibrant culture of the city. We would highly recommend this tour.

He took me on a deep dive into the city's rich history, showing me all the important landmarks and fascinating historical sites. But what made the tour truly special was how he also gave me an authentic glimpse into everyday life in Mumbai. We traveled using all the local transportation options, which made the experience even more immersive. Gautam was always kind, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made sure I felt comfortable and engaged throughout the tour.

We had the most amazing food tour with Gautam! From gosa to lassi and everything in between! Gautam met us close to our hotel & after our first gastronomic treat we took a local train (what an experience - we would never have done it ourselves!). We didn’t see a single westerner for the whole of our tour, which took us through the flower market, past the pigeon house, down alleys, across streets, with so much to look at and taste. We loved every minute & every mouthful!What an amazing day!

I had a great day with Gautam.I had asked for a food tour and to see a market. We went to local eateries which I would never have found by myself…the lassi was particularly good in that it was very thick and eaten with a spoon. The vegetarian Bombay burger was also very good, as well as other delicious morsels..In fact I couldn’t eat any more. It was also pleasant using different forms of transport including the local train. Thank you very much. Alix Great tour
