Best tours in Mumbai – thanks to Ravi! - Absolutely unforgettable – best guide ever!
We had the amazing chance to do a private tour with Ravi – and it was hands down the highlight of our Mumbai trip! Ravi was the best guide we’ve ever had: super friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and funny too. He brought every place to life with stories, facts, and a lot of heart.
The Caves of Mumbai were magical – full of history and atmosphere.
The Vipassana Pagoda was a hidden gem – peaceful, majestic, and beautifully explained by Ravi.
If you’re in Mumbai, do not miss a tour with him. He’s not just a guide – he’s a storyteller, an entertainer, and a true ambassador of this amazing city.
Highly recommended – we’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Kanheri Caves with Ravi - I did a Dharavi tour with Ravi one day before. He impressed me, with he knowledge and smartness, also about thinking more forward than others.
We go together withanother German guy to Kanheri Caves in Sanjay Gandhi national parks.
We go there together by local public transport, which he arranged and take care of all fees. Everything, also water, was included and it was good to enjoy the tour.
Ravi has a big knowledge about the Caves and its history. So we can ask him everything, which came to pur mind, and he also seems to be happy about our demands.
The Caves were interesting itself, especially when you rhink about there construction and its efforts to do. It is not overtourism at Kanheri, what in other spots will be much more intensive.
Also, you will find some wildlife when you pass the road through the national park. Unfortunately we don't see a leopard, but there should be 40 in the park. The view tmfrom national park and the skyline of mumbai is also very impressive.
So trust Ravi and book a tour by him.
