Mumbai's Dharavi: Transformative Slum Tour & Her Story

Sneha gave an extraordinary visit with such fantastic insights and detail. To be shown the area by someone local was really special and with such rich detail. Absolutely recommend to anyone.

Sneha was my tour guide and she is such a professional. Thanks to her my tour was unforgettable. I’d recommend everyone to take this tour when you come to Mumbai

I took a Dharavi slum tour in Mumbai with a local guide, Anushka, and it was an excellent experience. Anushka was knowledgeable, respectful, and passionate about sharing the community’s story. The tour was well-organized and thoughtfully conducted, providing real insight into Dharavi’s people and industries without feeling intrusive. It offered a meaningful perspective on life in Mumbai and left a lasting impression.

Puja guided us around her neighbourhood of Dharavi, made famous by the film Slumdog Millionaire. She showed us the tough job of plastics recycling, making something out of all the world’s waste. Puja explained why people still move to the area, even though the work is very hard and long, and the conditions are not great. We also saw some of the other industries, like soap manufacture, clothing and leatherwork. Puja also took us round the residential areas, and it was humbling to see the tiny accommodation, but we received only friendly and warm greetings everywhere we went. Puja was an excellent guide, and we really enjoyed listening to her explanations of the area, and also got to meet her family, which was lovely. Our driver Shamsheer was excellent in navigating the mad traffic, small roads and many puddles from the unseasonal rain storms.

I had a very good experience with sneha .Sneha Was my tour guide i had realy good day with her I had a very good time with her she was very acknowledge her knowledge was very information and Eyeopening thank you sneha for this lovely tour

Varsha was an absolutlely wonderful tour guide. What an eye opening experience. A must see if you're at all interested in how "the other half lives". Truely, an experience I will not soon forget. Interestingly, the people seemed to be happily working. I didn't feel un-safe in the slightest; in fact, I felt safer there than in some other cities, even in America.

Our tour guide, Sneha,was very well informed, and very easy to understand. She answered all of our questions very helpfully.

Sneha, was an excellent guide. Very informative and a nice person. She helped us understand the culture of the slum. I would recommend the tour.

Amazing tour! Had an amazing time with Sneha, she was so knowledgable. She also gave me some great advice on where to find good shopping!

Snahee not only showed me everyday life of hardworking people, but also told me about her personal live and the culture of India. All those industries, most of them taking care of “our” collected plastics. An amazing afternoon, i am very grateful to meet her and the amazing people in Dharavi. Also the lunch with a local family was very tasty. Lovely to meet this family.
