Your was perfect and excitedly as described - I had an amazing time participating in this tour during my quick stay in Mumbai. Rahul was a great guide ensuring that I saw the must see attractions of Mumbai before I had to depart. The highlight was definitely being able to get BTS insight of how television series are filmed. Totally recommend this if you just to get a general idea of what Mumbai has to offer. Especially for a solo traveller.

Our tour guide Divya was... - Our tour guide Divya was very knowledgeable and brought the whole studio experience to life. Experiencing Dharavi with her was wonderful and she had grown up there and bringing her own personal experiences into it made it so memorable. She was one of the best tour guides I have ever had !

SJ Studios - Our guide Jayshree, showed us around SJ Studio's. We did karaoke, watch 2 dramas being filmed and looked at many sets. It was a great morning.
We even rubed shoulders and smiled with the greatest director and Bollywood stars.

Bollywood experience - The Bollywood studio tour was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we began, our guide Rahul brought the magic of Bollywood to life with his deep knowledge, passion, and entertaining storytelling. He guided us through iconic sets, explaining fascinating behind-the-scenes details, making the tour both fun and insightful.
The highlight was witnessing a live dance performance, where we saw the energetic, colorful choreography that Bollywood is famous for—truly breathtaking! Our driver, Salman, was equally wonderful—friendly, approachable, and ensured our ride between locations was smooth and comfortable.
Overall, the combination of Rahul's expertise and Salman’s warmth made this a must-do for any Bollywood fan!

Lovely tour!! but confusion with the start time - Rahul was excellent!! Very patient and answered all of our questions, took his time with us and showed us all around the studio and made sure we were comfortable. He even provided me with a very generous gift that I thought was very kind of him!! He was great at multi tasking and taking videos and pictures so that we’d have memories. I am a solo female traveler and there were 3 total in our small group. I felt safe and Rahul was attentive. Highly recommend Rahul!
My concern is with the booking process. There was a lot of confusion over the time and meeting location. TripAdvisor does not have an option for the time. I had to send multiple emails to the company asking for the meetup time. There was no response so I called the office and still I had to wait for someone to contact me. It was very frustrating to not know how to prepare for the day as transportation is at least an hour to get to the studio and I wanted to experience other tours and adventures. I had family visiting for half the day and they did not participate in this tour because of the confusion with the time. I encourage management to add the time option to TripAdvisor to eliminate confusion.
Other than the tour was a lot of fun and Rahul was excellent!

Marginal Bollywood Experience - Our tour guide Sami was great. The studio was way up on the north side of Mumbai, it was dilapitated and not many sets were accessable nor were we able to take photos on all sets visited. We saw some being set up and a few where they were shooting. The jail and judges desk were the most fun for photos. We also did a karaoke that was hokey but sort of fun. Over all I would have liked to see more action that perhaps would be more available at bigger studios closer in to downtown.
