A 4-hour tour that takes you up close to everyday life in Mumbai. Meet the dabbawalas, a lunchbox delivery service running for over a century, and ride a suburban train with local commuters. Explore Dhobi Ghat, known as one of the largest open-air laundries in the world, then walk through the alleys and workshops of Dharavi, one of Asia's largest slums, with a local guide. This tour focuses on the people who keep the city running rather than on tourist sights.
Meet your English-speaking guide at Churchgate Station and spend about 4 hours visiting the dabbawalas, riding a local train, and exploring Dhobi Ghat and Dharavi in turn. You travel by local train along the way, and the tour ends in Dharavi.
Visit the dabbawalas, a lunchbox delivery service that has operated in Mumbai for more than a century. Watch them sort thousands of lunchboxes and carry them across the city, and see the logistics and efficiency of this system for yourself.
Board a suburban train, an essential part of Mumbai's daily commute, with local commuters and feel the sights and sounds of the busy city. After the ride, explore Dhobi Ghat, where hundreds of washermen (dhobis) hand-wash and dry clothes in outdoor concrete pens, and learn about its history and the daily lives of the dhobis.
Finally, follow your local guide through Dharavi's narrow alleys, busy workshops and street markets. Talk with residents and see the industries and businesses thriving here to gain a deeper understanding of life and creativity in Dharavi.
