Review for: Guided Walking Tour without Transfers

Incredible Local Perspective! This tour is a must-do in Mumbai. Our guide, Loki, was phenomenal—being a local resident meant he knew every corner and person we passed. He shared stories about the community's resilience and industry that were incredibly moving. We visited the recycling and leather making areas and left with a much deeper understanding of the local economy. Thank you, Loki, for making this so special! group size:10 guide:Loki

This was an incredible and eye-opening experience visiting one of the most well-known slum areas in the world. The guide did an excellent job — showing us all the key spots and sharing valuable insights, before safely bringing us back. For the price, it was truly an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.

The guide is amazing. He was born and raised here, and his wealth of knowledge truly opened my eyes. He’s also incredibly kind and approachable. If you have time, please join this tour—it’s a great way to support the entire community.

First of all, the car pick-up was very punctual, and the driver was enthusiastic and chatty along the way. The tour guide is a professional and local resident of Dharavi. Before the visit, there is an explanation about Mumbai and Dharavi, as well as a detailed explanation of the tour route and the cultural background behind it. The walk may be a little scary, but with Klook you can enjoy the entire walking journey with peace of mind.

a must join tour. the guide is a local who is born, raised and still raising his own family in Dhavari slums. The biggest message he wants to send to the world is - here people are all working hard to make a living, and they care to make a better living for their future generations too. And it was all hard working and friendly faces we met, even though the working and living conditions were tough.

Guide Maze is really great! His explanations are detailed, and he clearly points out important things to be aware of. You can ask him questions anytime, and he will always answer enthusiastically. I’ve had him as my guide twice in Mumbai, and both times were excellent. If you need a guide, I highly recommend him!

Mr Mohamed was friendly and professional. Having lived in the slum, he was able to guide us through with ease. I am a solo traveller and it was good to join 2 other girls from Belgium on our walking tour. I really enjoyed learning what an industrious community the slums are!
