Dharavi slum tour by the 1st female tour guide of Mumbai's slum

Fascinating tour

I enjoyed this immensely. Pooja, Nikil, and ahasan were very effective and educational. We saw lots of the city and saw things we’ll never forget. I recommend this experience.

Amazing guide!

Had the best tour guide varsha she was amazing, very knowledgeable and friendly! Thank you so much for a wonderful tour will definitely be recommending

Good

Our tour guide( Pooja ) for dharavi slums was very nice. She showed us every bit about the nice community and the street food. Definitely recommend her if possible. If I ever come back to Mumbai, I will definitely do more tours with magical mumbai tours.

Great tour!

Pooja was great! She lives in Dharavi as well so she understands the area very well. Great to see how the area runs, with the industries and people

Excellent tour!

A brilliant tour with a lovely local guide who explains you everything. You will go places you would otherwise never go.

Nice experience at Dharavi Slum!

Really nice tour, Pooja was an excellent guide, gave us a lot of information about the slum. The tour lasted 3 hours and we started it at the Magical Mumbai Tours office. We saw the commercial and residential areas of the slum, their commercial activities and how they live. It is nice that photos are not allowed in the residential areas out of respect!

Great tour - slam

I did the female guided slam tour. The guide Varsha was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable, kind, attention to detail. I learned a lot from the tour and I would consider doing it again!

Nice host!

Varsha was very personable and knowledgeable. Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning about Dharavi.

Wonderful and eye-opener.

The tour was very well-done. The slum is a staggering place, really far from our european or american standards. We always felt safe during the tour, and our guide Pooja was great! An experience I would highly recommend to any foreing vistitor in Mumbai. Going there alone it would have been impossible to see and understand that much.

Great tour of the slum

The guide is showing you both section of Dharavi slum ( working and residential area) very well explained, providing info about the local communities

Awful

It was awful. Couldn’t wait to leave. Don’t go. It romanticizes poverty and dirtiness of slums which is not representative of the city. No native of India or Mumbai would ever recommend going. It was not enjoyable

Memorable, inspirational, insightful

Great tour - we met many of the locals and even played pick-up cricket with some of the children there! The guide had a lot of enthusiasm and knew many of the people as we walked around. You literally walk around the side alleys and around the residential, business, and a school. We went a little over-time, in a good way. Plus the coffeeshop meetup place was top-notch.

Somebody you must live and see

Amazing guide, lot of knowledge and huge experience and emphaty with the group. Good explanatiom and she brought water for the people

Amazing tour guide

The tour guide Varsha was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly that I was able to learn a lot about the history and how the people in Dharavi slam. And itinerary was well organized. I highly recommend that you join this tour if you're in Mumbai.

Dharavi Super Girl Pooja

Amazing and brainstorming tour ..Pooja has shown us the real picture of Dharavi how it is contributing to society. Being first women guide Pooja herself is a inspiration. She is amazing girl full of life, courage and guts. She is so dedicated and honest to his work.May she succeed in life and touch full height and glory. she deserve so.😊✌️

Amazing Dharavi Trip

We have guided by Ms. Pooja in this Dharavi trip. She has described so nice for all places about their present and history. She is excellent guide for any person.

Must Do experience in Mumbai

Even if you saw in some to programs how Mumbai slam looks like and how people live and work here, you are not able to really understand how it is there before you come and see. This experience is a must-do experience when you’re in Mumbai. In addition, we had a great guide Varsha, who answered all our questions and showed and explained everything that you will not be able to find without a guide on your own in Dharavi. I highly recommend this tour.

Go for it !!

I highly recommend Pooja for the tour ! I had such a great experience, the explanations was clear and really interesting. Everything you’re learning there is impressive. Additionally, we had issues coming on time with my friend and we asked to leave earlier to catch a flight… Pooja adapted the tour for us and she managed everything perfectly. Go for it !

Must-do experience in Mumbai

The must-do experience to do in Mumbai! Special thanks to our tour guide Varsha! She will guide you through the industrial and residential part of the slum, tell you so many interesting information you cannot find on the internet and will answer all your questions! Great tour to do to know how life looks like for so many hard working people.

Dharavi tour

Thanks to our guide Varsha, who answered to all our questions and showed us all interesting parts of Dharavi. I am absolutely amazed by the tour

Great experience

Varsha was great! What an experience! She gave so much information! Highly recommend this tour!! Absolutely fascinating! Take water! You’ll need it x

Seeing the real Dharavi!

I did the Dharavi tour guided by Pooja. He is not only very knowledgable, but also very attentive on each of my query. Together with Hassan (the driver) the trip was properly arranged. Kudos to them for their hospitality. I really reccomended this tour as you will not only see Dharavi, but also how the people there live as a whole having their own economy & community system.

A must do tour

Varsha was the best tour guide you could ask for! I couldn’t recommend enough that you do this tour. You will not be disappointed!

Super interesting slum tour

Great tour with Varsha! Very knowledgeable and informative. So lovely having a tour with a woman guide! It was so amazing to see how the slums looked and all the local businesses there

Don’t miss this if your are in Mumbai.

Excellent tour! My wife and I have been wanting to do this for a while and we couldn’t have chosen a better guide. Pooja was exceptionally good. Her knowledge about Dharavi and friendly attitude made the tour enjoyable and we would highly recommend taking a tour with her. 2.5 hours went by really fast and we’d love to do this again. Dharavi itself if another world, and is a must see if you are in Mumbai. Will definitely recommend going with Pooja!

An interesting and informative tour by Pooja, who is an excellent guide. This 2½ hour tour was enjoyable and good value!

The tour that you don’t want to miss in Mumbai

Highly informative tour from a guide who is from Dharavi. In the tour, we get to learn a lot of about the different areas within Dharavi as well as their lives. I would highly recommend all to join the tour, beyond visiting the well-known attractions.

Varsha lovely, tour very insightful.

Varsha was lovely and very very good with her tour. English is perfect, we could see everything we would want to see and gave us very good insight into the slum as she lives there. Not really anything I would say needs improving at all, she was lovely and was very very insightful and enjoyable to see. Thank you.

Fantastic experience worth doing

Very enjoyable tour with lots of information! I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone in Mumbai! Varsha was great!

Excellent comprehensive tour

Our guide Pooja was very informative. She helped us navigate Dharavi with ease, and we felt very safe and comfortable with her. She was happy to answer questions and her knowledge of the area and different industries was excellent. Thank you so much Pooja.

We had a guided tour through the Dharavi slum region seeing the residential areas, plastic sorting, leather goods.

The tour was amazing, Pooja answered all of our questions and kept us engaged the entire tour. I found the slum a great exposure to different kinds of culture and life and am extremely grateful for the opportunity. We were also late to arrive and Pooja was very understanding and still gave us the tour. Highly recommend for anyone travelling to Mumbai! Thank you again

Great tour from start to finish. Pooja, our guide, was one of the best guides we had for any tour we’ve done in the past. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely fascinating views with interesting insights

We have been on a slum tour with Varsha who is a very knowledgable and insightful person. She explained alot on the tour and reacted very kindly and understanding to all of our questions. The slum tour itself was just amazing and fascinating since it really is like a world we have never seen before. And that its working like its own little universe. We really enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone who is even remotely interested. Thank you very much Varsha, it really was an amazing last stop point for our journey in Mumbai.

Very interesting tour..

The tour was very interesting. It was a great experience. I highlyrecommend it. The guide Varsha was very patient, funny and explained the spots in a detailed manner throughout the tour.
