Faith Walk - How the history of faith communities shaped Modern day Mumbai - This was my second walking tour with Khaki Tours. They call it the "Faith Walk". It was once again a very well thought out walk. The route, the timing, the logistics, all of it was well planned. Our tour was led by Navin. He is very sweet and entertaining. There was never a dull moment with him, neither was it overwhelming. He knows the sweet spot! The tour really helps you understand the events and the history that shaped what we know as Modern day Mumbai of 202X. You will get a good understanding of the communities that settled in Mumbai and why Mumbai has such cosmpolitan culture. Would 100% recommend this.

BMC Heritage Walk with Muji - A wonderful and enriching experience at the BMC Heritage Building tour. Special thanks to Khakhi Tours and our guide, Muji, whose gentle nature, patience, sense of humor, and detailed storytelling made the walk truly memorable. His explanation of Mumbai’s journey from the seven islands to the architectural brilliance of the BMC building and CSMT area was both engaging and insightful. This was my second walk with Khakhi Tours after the Fort Walk, and both experiences have been excellent. Looking forward to joining many more such heritage walks in the future.
