Covering 25 of the top tourist landmarks of Mumbai, this tour quite appropriately takes you through the highlights of colonial Mumbai, passing through the Victoria Terminus station, Kalaghoda art district and Gateway of India amongst others. We also take you on a cultural joy ride as we meet the Dabbawalas- the logistical wondermen who are known for precisely delivering 2,50,000 'dabbas' or tiffins, to their rightful owners, everyday. The tour also takes you through the Dhobighat- it has the power to make your jaw drop. It is an area where the laundrymen, more popularly known as the Dhobhis, wash the clothes of Mumbai-folks. You will see the Dhobhis at work, flogging and beating the clothes tirelessly to ensure it is devoid of any stain.
