Best experience for life, this is not only a sightseeing tour, it's about learning from others, respect! - The walking slum with Mohammad is very interesting and I learned a lot about local life in Dharavi. Most important was to show to visitors a real impression of life inside of the slum and strike prejudices about the slum generally and its residents. During the tour I saw people working very hard and all day long under very hard conditions. For me they are heroes of life and survive there inside, they have all my respect! Very good experience and on my next Mumbai tour I surely will contact Mohammad again for this tour, maybe with a friend together. Mohammad does a great job! Thank you so much! K.

Wonderful tour - must do in Mumbai - Great experience and very sobering/thought provoking. Mohammad was wonderful at explaining his passion and home. Saw the true face of the slums - very difficult living and working environment but home to hard-working, kind, and happy people. Enjoyed meeting some of the kids at their "playground" and seeing many of the industries and living spaces of the families. Could not have had a better tour. Even though Mohammad got sick overnight, his nephew Ansari completed the tour.

Great tour to the Dharavi Slum with an real insider - The tour was rally great. We got a lot of insights to the small factories in the slum. The guide was very much familiar with the area. He showed us first the area where the small factories are located. After that we had a walk through a pure living area in the slum. Very impressive to see how the people live there. At the end of the tour we walked through the Dharavi market. Our tour guide was very, very nice and a real insider. He told us that he grow up there. As far as I remember his name is Allama. A cleat 5-star rating. The price for the tour was very reasonable and we got a lot of impressions. Highle recommended!
