What a great guide. I Highly recommend. - I had Subhan show me around Mumbai for two days which included a stop in the Mumbai Slums, and the many other sights of Old Bombay! He was extremely knowledgeable of all the anttractions around the city and I felt completely safe everywhere I went. Most importantly though is Subhan’s fantastic personality. He’s a young kid trying to make a better life for himself and his family. He’s courteous, friendly, humorous, humble and extremely likable. I very highly recommend Subhan for a tour of Mumbai.

A December day in Mumbai - Dipak (driver) and Javed (tour guide) turned what could have been an exhausting day into an unexpectedly enriching one. With the Elephanta Caves visit cancelled due to Navy Day celebrations, they redirected me to the Dharavi slums - the incredible, self-sustaining “city within a city.” What unfolded there became the highlight of my Mumbai trip. Their deep knowledge, professionalism, and effortless coordination ensured that I had the best experience. Both Dipak and Javed left no stone unturned in shaping this into a truly memorable and meaningful visit. I am planning to come back again.

A memorable day in the depths of MUMBAI - Despite the language difficulties the messages on the history of the sites visited were well passed thanks to the availability of Subban the guide who speaks a fairly concise English and the driver Saddam. A beautiful and well supported day spent in MUMBAI deep and around the Arabian Sea. Honourable mention to them!

Absolutely incredible experience with Sharon and Pranav. - Pranav arrived right on time and was exceptionally polite, which set a great tone for the entire experience. The car itself was spotless—super clean, comfortable, and clearly well-maintained. Sharon was absolutely wonderful—friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. She took the time to answer every single question I had, making the experience not only smooth but also enjoyable and informative. From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations. Truly an incredible experience that I would highly recommend to anyone.

10 points from me - Everything went really well, the driver picked me up at the meeting point on time. And the tour guide first showed me the largest slum called Dharavi and then showed me the individual sights as agreed. Thanks to the tour guide named subhan and the driver vasim, 10 points from me to both of them. I would recommend them again! Thanks also to the great photos!

A comfortable, safe and fascinating of Mumbai - Sharon and Deepak, the driver, gave me a great tour of Mumbai. Sharon was full of interesting information about the city sites. Lots of unexpected delights, and a tour that exceeded my expectations. Apparently she was new to guiding, but was so good that i thought she must have been doing it for years. Excellent English and very easy to understand.
