Often referred to as ‘one of the largest slums in Asia,’ Dharavi is better seen as the vibrant heart of Mumbai.

This tour is organized by Reality Tours & Travel, a socially responsible travel company that channels a substantial portion of its profits back into community development.

Participants will explore a variety of business activities, including recycling, pottery-making, leather tanning, and poppadom-making.

The tour also includes a visit to the residential areas of Dharavi.

Kumbharwada, one of Dharavi’s oldest and most fascinating communities, is renowned for its bustling pottery industry. Spend a few hours with us to discover the community’s rich history and its evolution into Mumbai’s pottery hub. Witness the entire process, from sourcing materials to preparation, shaping, and baking.

Additionally, we will engage in a hands-on experience at a local potter’s workshop, where participants will receive an overview of pottery making and try their hand at wheel throwing to create a piece of Kumbharwada art.
