A Standing legacy of Goa's Heritage dwells in my neighbourhood Fontainhas. Join me on this Heritage walk and feel the nostalgia of where I grew up as a child be mesmerised by the colonial buildings and houses of the past painted with bright pastel colours.
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.

Outstanding first visit to Mumbai
Gautam is not only extremely knowledgeable of history of India and different religions, was instrumental to guide us at the proper times to the different areas of the city from the port to downtown to the Laundry and slums. I even enjoyed a magnificent haircut and head massage in the slums for US$2, a great and interesting experience! Not only this, took and shared with us excellent professional quality pictures and videos of our tour.

Amazing day!!
We had such a great day exploring everything Mumbai had to offer with Shrikanth. We did both the off the beaten path tour & then the food tour. It was a wonderful experience to visit the communities in Dharavi and each place we stopped at for food, we felt like locals. Couldn’t recommend enough!
