Amazing experience. Ali is a very passionate and knowledgeable guide. - I did a private tour of Dharavi slum with Ali. It was an eye opening experience. Ali has got first hand knowledge of the slums, as he lives there. At all times I felt safe. He answered all my questions. He is very passionate about that place and its people. Percentage of all money received from tourists goes to support local school. Highly recommend.

Perfect - I had an incredible experience on the slum tour organized by Ali. Shaikh Ashab. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and respectfully. Our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and gave us deep insight into the community’s daily life, challenges, and incredible resilience. What stood out the most was how thoughtfully the tour was designed—highlighting local initiatives, businesses, and the vibrant spirit of the people without being intrusive. It was not just informative but also deeply moving and inspiring. This tour completely changed my perspective and left a lasting impact. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a meaningful, respectful, and eye-opening experience.
