World Class Bollywood Tour Experience - Fantastic experience for our students from NYU. Rahul Sharma was a great tour guide and Jtin Gopal was great with coordinating our trip. It truly was an exceptional experience.

Good Tour - Rahul gave me an excellent experience in Bollywood. I toured the studios and saw live actors as they were being filmed. I felt like part of the back screen crew.

Friends group visit at the studio Feb 2024 - This was a last minute great idea, everyone in our group was happy with our time spent at the studio. Gurmin,our guide, was very accommodating , not only he anticipated that the driver won’t know for sure where to stop and he come and guided him but also guided us through various parts of the studio showing us différent sets, explaining hidden details, gave insights on the shows being filmed as well as recommended us series we could check. We all heartedly recommend this tour for anyone who is interested in knowing more about Bollywood and also wants first hand experience, not just a drive by with a bus.

Great Bollywood behind the scenes experience - Enjoyed a behind the scenes tour of the filming of a few different Bollywood soap operas. The bright coloured outfits and filming sets were great. An enjoyable experience.

Amazing Experience! - We did the Elephanta Tour and Bollywood tour. Both were pretty good, the guides that helped us in each one of them, Siddhi and Shoaib, respectively, were very nice and kind! Also, Sonali who was in the administrative side were very helpful to adjust the tour and offer the best experience to us.

Amazing experience - The Bollywood tour was amazing! Shuaib was the best tour guide and had a vast amount of knowledge of what happens behind the scenes. He explained everything in detail and was very polite, funny and friendly. We watched live filming, saw multiple set ups, props etc and we also had a session in the sound recording room and had a chance to record a song. I would highly recommend the tour and will definitely book it again when I am in Mumbai again :)

Bollywood Studio Tour - Tour did not add enough value for its high price unfortunately. Guide was enthusiastic and tried hard to make the most of its scope and the content but overall, it overpriced. Disappointing as the other Mumbai tours I took were great.

Gurmit is a great guy for a cool experience, however wouldn't recommend this company because of bad communication - We did a bollywood studio tour experience with Gurmit. Gurmit was very nice, knowledgeable and fun. In the car we drove past a celebrities house, we drove through the actors neighbourhood. Once arrived we saw live shooting which was really cool, we went to a dubbing studio and we saw a live hollywood dance. Afterwards we had a choice for lunch, we went with typical Indian food that was very good. It was a really cool experience, but I am not sure I would repeat with this company. The communication is really bad beforehand (not Gurmits fault) making our experience less fun. For example, I clicked the starting time 09:00 for the tour, to be back at the hotel by 14:00. The day before I received a message that we would get picked up by 10:00? What the hell? So when I pointed this out, the answer was that the studio wouldn't be open, but 09:30 was fine. Once we were picked up we were told that if we had to be back at 14:00 we would miss the bollywood dance.. So by being flexibles ourselves we did manage to see the bollywood dance. But it is really bad that a tour offers different starting times, that apparently aren't correct. And it turns out, the studio was open! Also, because we left later we were stuck in a lot of traffic, so for us it felt like the tour was mostly in the car..

The ugly on the earth really were evil hearted experience. Beaty on the outside is ugliness unless you hold it within. - Tuk tuk ride and city ride home was the best part. Actresses looked like they walked off a set from hell they looked so mean. Promised tour of star homes and dairy and they weren’t going to do it. Had to argue to a belingerant owner. Website option misleading. Read as included city tour I. Drop-down. You need to have English scholars proof your webpage or you can be sued for misleading advertising.
