      Highlights and Jewish Tour of Mumbai
      We had a 7- hour tour from our cruise ship in a nice, air-conditioned vehicle. our licensed guide, Irfan, was friendly, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to ensure we saw all of the highlights, had time to enjoy the Taj hotel and some shopping in the spice market. We also toured 3 synagogues and learned about the Jewish history and welcoming culture of multiple religions in India.

      Trusted guide and a great day!
      As a woman traveling solo the number one thing is safety. With Shailendra I could feel 100% safe and I truly enjoyed his company. He knows so much about the city and I got a good overview and heard interesting stories of the top sightseeings and the history of Mumbai. I liked Shailendra so much I asked him to be my guide also the next day. Thank you Shailendra so much for the great tour and your kindess and even taking me to see a Hindu temple when I asked if we could go see one.

      Memorable visit
      Visiting Mumbai is always an exciting experience and even more so if you have the opportunity to do it with a competent private guide, such as Shailendra. Very knowledgeable and flexible, he was able to accommodate our personal wishes and preferences and to show us the culture, history and architecture of this great city.

      Authentic Mumbai food tour
      If you're looking for a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide for Mumbai, look no further, Shailendra is amazing! He certainly knows his way around Mumbai with plenty of knowledge and history about the place. The food tour was excellent, with many different tastings of delicious fresh local street food. Shailendra also customised the tour based on my level of knowledge of Mumbai and Indian food. I had a great time exploring Mumbai's streets with him. And as a hint, it's probably best to skip lunch to leave room for all the different dishes ;)

      Excellent and Educational.
      We had a great day in Mumbai with Shailendar. We had been to Mumbai previously and wanted to see areas we had not seen previously and we did! The highlight of the day was the time we spend touring and learning about the Dharavi Slum. Shailendar was the perfect guide, patient, caring, very knowledgeable, excellent English and fun to spend the day with. We would recommend Shailendar for a great tour in Mumbai.

      An eye-opener Dharavi Slums Tour
      Though I live in Mumbai for quite a long time I never thought of visiting Dharavi as it didn't quite had the reputation. But after doing this tour, I can say that I was completely wrong. Mr. Shailesh who was the tour guide, was very informative about all the places and made the tour unforgettable. Great work. Thanks!

      Kanheri caves - The historical pride
      We as friends wanted to see some historical places in Mumbai and decided to visit Kanheri caves in SGNP. The guide Shailesh was very informative about the place and Lord Buddha and he took good care of us. Though living in Mumbai we didn't know about such good places and it's history. Would highly recommend anyone who wants to visit it.

      Amazing Experience
      I had a fantastic food tour with Siddhi and Shailesh. They were extremely knowledgeable and very attentive to anything I might need. I wanted to do a food tour, but was slightly concerned that I would end with an upset stomach. Not only did I end the tour perfectly fine (and full!), but I saw so many cool places along the way. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone interested in seeing an authentic side of the city.

      Mumbai Full Day City Tour
      Shailendra gave us a great tour of Mumbai, which is a crazy place! He was waiting for us when our cruise ship docked and took us (four adults) on a very interesting tour of Mumbai. We visited many interesting sites and locations. He took care of us and watched out for our safety as it can be quite an experience just crossing the road in Mumbai! If you are going to Mumbai, I would definitely recommend Shailendra as your tour guide.

    Dear Rahul, first of all and on behalf of the other guys as well a massive thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your tour around Mumbai with us. We learned so many things, not just about the city of yours but even more important about life when you put a humble and appreciative attitude ahead of you with your best foot forward 🙏 Cant recommend the Dharavi Slum & City Tour enough with Rahul, who not only made our day special but offered so much inside to the life of this incredible neighborhood which offers an authentic experience of a lifetime.

    Absolutely fantastic. We had a very detailed tour of the Dharavi Slum with a guide whose origins were in the slum. It was conducted at a pace that we wanted and the guide was very enthusiastic about imparting and sharing all the information with us. He had a fantastic knowledge of the history and the micro economy of the area. Highly recommend this tour with this company. It was also the most reasonably priced option that we were able to select.
