- ronyk7220 contributionsEnriching Day in Amazing MumbaiThank you Dev for a wonderful and knowledgeable day! Starting at the amazing slum and learn that all we think about it and its people is so twisted - but not anymore. Traveling from the industrial parts, understand the economical importance of the slums and role it plays in India, then see the residential part which is something no where else to be seen - it’s a must! After that we actually saw not less than 15 sites of all kinds, historical - like Gandhi’s house, Mumbai gate and more.. cultural, hanging gardens, the amazing colorful markets, institutional buildings, Kashmir merchandise (hand made) and all came with a detailed and very knowledgeable explanations. It is so clear that Dev is totally in love with what he is doing and so passionate about sharing his wide knowledge Tips: Bring some cash money with you - you will see places, including in the slums, where you can find amazing authentic Indian merchandise- like REAL Kashmir made carpets and scarfs, spices and clothes and even hand made leather bags. Also, our driver, was very patient and kind. Highly recommended! Thank you for this experience!Written January 19, 2025

I spent 2.5 days in Mumbai with Mystical Mumbai. Shailish, Dev and others are the perfect team. They are very special: friendly, professional, hospitable... Their services are Very reasonably priced comparing to some others. They do their best to leave the best impressions. They love their city and know Mumbai very well. Its not my first time in Mumbai but I learnt a lot of new things about the city. Dev was very persistent to make me remember the historical and geographical facts so that he sometimes even repeated them to me twice))). Anyway the tour was very comfortable and well structured. Smiling people, relaxing atmosphere... I definetely recommend them to anyone travelling to Mumbai, and I wish Mystical Mumbai all the best!

We were met at the green gate by our guide Jaya and her driver we had a very informative tour of Mumbai, including a visit to a Dhoby Ghaut, Gandhi museum and the Gate Way of India. Our guide was happy to share her experiences of growing up and living in Mumbai. A private tour is highly recommended in this city.

We have been for a 4 hours tour with Mukesh as a guide around Mumbai to grab and see the most relevant sites of the city.
It has been really exciting and very informative, Mukesh has also been extremely gentle, flexible and available to all our questions and request.
To be repeated next time in Mumbai

Nikesh was an amazing guide for our two days in Mumbai! We wanted to curate our own experience since we had been to the city before, and Nikesh was very flexible in accommodating us and providing additional suggestions when needed. Both he and the driver were very knowledgable about various aspects of the city, and they remained patient while we went into explore certain attractions by ourselves. Highlight of the tour for us was definitely the Kanheri Caves - definitely visit them if you have the time!

We spent the day roaming around Mumbai with Raj who made it a really great experience. We saw some of the most famous spots of the city and at the end we took a cup of coffe at his house with his family. The day was great! Highly recommended

I'm a female solo traveller to India on a business trip, I was a bit nervous about travelling alone in Mumbai and hence joined a local personal tour during my layover. My tour guide and driver Mukesh (Abhay) is absolutely wonderful. He tried to show me as much as possible during my time there and ensure I could get back to the airport on time with considerations of the typical traffics in Mumbai. The experience absolutely exceeds my expectations. Mukesh showed me the different parts of Mumbai, and his very knowledgeable about the history as well as security in different parts of the city. He is also a very humble man in which I respect a lot. Cannot recommend more! PS I don't typically write long reviews, and this is my first.

I recently hired a private tour in Mumbai and had a memorable experience. The driver was professional and ensured a smooth journey throughout the day. The tour guide, Arti, was very kind, warm, and open to sharing her culture and way of life, which made the experience unique. A highlight for me was visiting her family and seeing her home—an authentic and personal touch that I truly appreciated.
Arti was also accommodating when it came to taking pictures, ensuring I could capture some great memories. While the storytelling about the city’s history felt a bit light, I enjoyed learning more about the local culture through her perspective.
The tour ended with a visit to a local store to shop. While the experience was interesting, I felt a bit pressured to buy something. That said, I’m convincing myself it was a good purchase and part of the cultural experience!

Mukesh was a fabulous tour guide. He picked us up promptly from the airport and completed some research regarding our itinerary prior.
He was very knowledgeable throughout and shared a lot about his own experiences growing up in Mumbai. I would definitely recommend the tour if it’s your first time checking out the city.
Thanks for a wonderful trip, Mukesh!

Our guide Mukesh was incredible! He picked us up on time and included so many things into our day, many of which weren't in the official schedule. He went out of his way to make the day perfect for us and included a few additional stops that I requested. He was very knowledgable and provided a world of information about each of our stops. Would highly recommend.

Hello - I have a 10 hour layover on November 18, 2018 (I land at 11:15 AM and depart at 8:55PM). I was wondering if it would be possible to be picked up for the airport by tour guide. I was hoping to have Shailesh.
Please let me know if possible. I would love to book this tour.
