Mumbai Markets and Temples Tour

Great afternoon strolling through places I would have never found on my own

Great experience visited a number of different markets which were all fully explained. Also some amazing temples well recommended

Great Walking Tour

I had a great time with Nilesh on the Mumbai walking tour. He showed me interesting places that were on my list and some that I didn't know about. He had a lot of great information about Mumbai and was able to answer all of my questions. Highlights were the cow sanctuary and a quick stop for street food. Highly recommend!

Best tours in India

I done one tour in 2020 and it was amazing and I have done two tours in the past week with my parents and they have both been fantastic. Guides are very knowledgeable and make sure you feel like you are in real India. The tours are very organised. Mumbai city and market tour is fantastic and they take you places you probably would never venture to. Dharavi Slum Tour was amazing too. Our guide met us at the Churchgate train station in south Mumbai and took us to Dharavi where we met other guides and other people. Our guide was lovely and she very knowledgeable. The company are very respectful of the people within Dharavi with their no camera policy. Fantastic tour all round. I will definitely do tours in New Delhi too. Rajesh and the female

Busy, busy, busy markets

A must do experience to understand the shopping habits of the Indian people where markets are so important. We went through amazing scenes always with our guide who was so knowledgeable but also understanding of my needs as a slow walker. You won’t regret it and if you get our guide, consider it a bonus.

Markets and Temples Tour

A great tour with an excellent guide. Very informative and well organized. We learned a lot and were able to visit a number of interesting markets and temples.

First rate guides and tour

Excellent guides for the Markets and Temples tour provided just the right amount of information and were happy to answer our wide range of questions! We were taken to the markets and temples as advertised in the itinerary and to others off the beaten track that we would not have found or been confident to visit without our guides. Highly recommended.

Great tour even without the animal stops

The Market and Temple tour was tons of fun and interesting. Even in the ff and on pouring rain. We stopped to buy some spices and were able to smell them all. I learned so much. The guide was very knowledgeable and communicating before the tour was easy. We took and Uber too and from our hotel, which was also easy. The guide customized our tour because we wanted to skip the animal parts. Highly recommended as a way to deepen your experience in Mumbai. -American Family of Four.

Must see markets

Markets are my favorite way to learn about a city. This tour included produce, jewelry, textiles, fashion, housewares, sundries, pets, and more! All within walking distance of each other. My guide was friendly and knowledgeable. I'vd booked a slum tour with the same company for later today.

Mumbai walking tour

Excellent walking tour. Met on time as arranged. Guide was very knowledgable and told some interesting facts about the city. She was genuinely interested in our expectations and took us to many really interesting places. I would strongly recommend this excursion. Many thanks

Amazing tour!!

We had the most incredible tour of the markets and temples in South Mumbai with Suja and Depak!! We spent 2.5 hours exploring and being told about the history of the area. We even took a little detour to try some street food! They helped me haggle when purchasing some fabric and also helped us at the end when the taxi had no change for us. We (2 women in our 20s) felt completely safe with the two of them and really appreciated the time they spent showing us around and answering our questions. We also love that a portion of the tour cost goes to charity. If you're looking to go on an adventure at low cost in Mumbai, this is the tour for you!

Fascinating Side of the City

The tour covered so much and we saw many wonderful things. The tour guide spoke English well and added some personal insights as well. The only complaint is that it should have been longer and slower. We went really quickly through some parts of the market that we would have liked to linger in, but overall, one of the better tours we've taken.

Fab way to explore local areas.

Visiting Mumbai for a few days. Been here before and did all the big tourist attractions then. We wanted to explore more of the local areas and markets this time. This tour did not disappoint! Chetan, our lovely, and very knowledgable young man, took us around the streets, markets and a few temples in the area. He gave us a running commentary on points of interest and areas we passed by. He told us some of the history of Mumbai and was full of facts. He even help me buy a sari for a friend. I am sure if I had gone myself it would have cost a lot more! The tour we just long enough, and at a good pace for us, in our late 50s. Would recommend this to all ages.

A great way to see south Mumbai

I have visited Mumbai a few times and wanted the chance to see more without getting lost. I was guided by the knowledgeable Chetan. We saw all kinds of markets, temples and the wonderful cow sanctuary. I would recommend it as a great way to get an insight into south Mumbai.

Good introduction to Mumbai

A really excellent tour hosted by knowledgeable guide with a great sense of humour. It was our first visit to Mumbai ( but not to India) and we really enjoyed being shown the local markets. Being with a guide means that you go to areas that you would not necessarily explore on your own ( indeed you might not necessarily find them!) and you have recourse to their knowledge and experience in being able to engage in conversation with the stall holders that you would not do if you were on your own. If you wish to make a purchase they can help you in recommending a realistic price without necessarily depriving the stall holders of their livelihood. The temple and cow sanctuary were of limited interest to us but an added a certain raison d'être to the tour.

Great guide and lively tour.

Excellent guide Nano gave a lively tour. A good variety of markets at short distance. Interesting temple and amazing cow sanctuary. Three hours well spent.

Mumbai walking tour

My Mumbai walking tour was excellent. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable regarding the sites we visited.

Afternoon Mumbai Walking Tour

Enjoyed the tour guide very much. His personal inspiration guts were very useful. I recommend this to all.

Raj was an excellent guide

Huge busy market that would have been too much to negotiate on my own. We saw a couple of temples, the food section, fabric, jewelry, flowers, cookware area, and even tried some food. The cow sanctuary was wonderful and we got to feed cows and buffalos. Highly recommend.

Markets & Temples amazing tour

In a group of 5 persons we were guided through the buzzing city. Janna, our knowledgeable and experienced guide, took us on this tour that addresses all your senses. We hopped on a bus, saw colourful textiles, smelled delicious spices and fruits, tasted chai, visited a temple, fed cows in a sanctuary throughout the buzzing city. I also welcome the idea of Reality Tours to reinvest their profit in the local community. An unforgettable tour i highly recommend.

explore indian retail markets

If you are interested in retail markets in Mumbai, this is the tour for you. Chetan, our guide, walked us thru the textile, gold, food and other hyper-specialized markets as well as a cow sanctuary and Hindu temple. We passed by a mosque and as well as a Jain temple. You can't do this on your own - you'd be lost in 5 minutes.

Very Insightful Tour, with Excellent Guide

My tour was supposed to contain 6 people, but the group of 5 did not show up, so I was given a private tour. My guide, Bipin, was excellent. He took me through all of the markets, describing everything in interesting detail. He knew the history and significance of each market. His English was excellent. I had mentioned that I was looking for a thali set (for Indian cooking) but that I didn't know where to get one or how much to pay, and he took me to a section in the market where they sold cookware and utensils, and when I saw a set that I liked, he did the negotiating for me in Hindi, getting me an excellent price. I enjoyed the tour very much and would recommend it to anyone coming to Mumbai.

Excellent, Informative and Fun

Highly recommend this tour. Nilesh was our guide and was exceptional! He was full of information and wisdom and answered all our questions thoroughly. The tour itself was great and you visit very interesting markets and temples along the way.

<p>This tour came alive because of the guides. I suppose we could have walked the same streets on our own, but we would have missed so much. This way, with two guides and only a few people in our party, meant that we could stop, ask questions and generally move at our pace but with knowledgeable and entertaining guides all the way. The guides even helped one of our party 'negotiate' the purchase of some local clothing. Well Done.</p>

<p>Our guide was nice and friendly, we enjoyed our tour with him. We would recommend the tour as a chance to see the side streets, markets, and another side of Mumbai - we went down little streets that my husband and I would have never ventured to on our own. The only draw back was that our guided didn't have an in-depth understanding of the different religions in Mumbai and the architectural history of the sites we saw. He did give us a great sense of life in modern Mumbai and how to navigate the city on foot.</p>

<p>Our guide Biju met us at the Regal on time.We had a really excellent guided tour of the different markets -fruit/cloth/etc and the visit to the temple.We also visited the jewellery quarter.<br/> Finally we finished with a visit to the cow sanctuary.<br/> We were given very useful information from our guide.</p>

Reality Tours gves You the best experience of Mumbai

I learnt about Realty Tours through Trip advisor, when somebody reviewing another tour operator wrote:" I should have booked Reality Tours instead..." It is not only about the good prices they offer, but the way they manage the tours, in a direct and uncomplicated way, gives You a feeling that You are among friends and one can feel that the guides really like showing their city to us. It also feels good knowing that there is a contribution to the slum by booking the tours. I have done almost all of the tours by now, except the bike tour. It is hard to choose a favorite because I enjoyed all of them, but I especially liked the ones when we moved around by other means than car, that is the two walking tours (Colaba and markets and temples), the local traffic tour and the street food tour. Although I also liked the night and the half day city tour as well, thanks to the good guiding they provided. Tomorrow i will be doing my last tour, the slum tour withfamily lunch. I am sure it will be as good as the other ones were. I came to Mumbai only to do tourism for over a week's time. And I must say that Reality Tours gave me the best experience of Mumbai I could wish for. I surely will book tours wth them if I come to other places in India. As they say in Hindi: Shiabash, mening well done, Reality Tours!

<p>A great way to see Mumbai. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and took us to places we wouldn't have seen if he hadn't taken us. We got to see several different different markets, temples and even a cow shelter where we got to feed the cows.</p> <p>Well worth the money.</p>

<p>We had this tour with Bipin Kumar/ reality tours. I have to tell you first of all that high percentage of the price goes to charity what they spend to improve adult education in the slums amongst other good causes. Bipin was a brilliant guide. What was outstanding that when local beggars followed us he was very respectful with them while made sure that we are not bothered and we have a lovely time. He is very knowledgable and pleasant to spend time with, his english is excellent. You are in for a treat if you book this tour, certainly won't be disappointed.</p>

<p>During this small group 4 people walking tour we viewed several markets food, flower, jewel, garments. Moreover, we visited and the Mumba Devi Temple and learned about its history. The tour finished with a visit to the Panjrapole Cow Shelter, where we able to feed cows.</p>

<p>I was impressed with the visit - we only confirmed that we could attend the arranged meeting place the am of the trip and so were well pleased when we turned up and were met by the guide. He was good, showed us around a very busy market and then walked along to the Mumbadevi temple. I enjoyed the tour it lasted just the right time as Mumbai was hot and quite sticky. I would recommend the trip as being informative getting the chance to visit a real thriving market as used by locals living in Mumbai. I would have had difficulity in locating it on my own. Information given was very useful.</p>

<p>Met on time at the Regal cinema. I was the only person on the tour.<br/> Had to wait 15 minutes for a taxi who was willing to take us to Crawford market on the meter.<br/> Rushed through the various markets and didn't really get the chance to browse and experience the market. Guide was knowledgable but delivery of the information was dull and he wasn't very enthusiastic. Tour finished in less than 2 hours. A little disappointed at the end of the day as I had been looking forward to the tour.</p>

<p>Great tour with a fabulous guide, who was funny and knowledgeable. I could only have found my own way around with the greatest of difficulties, so I would highly recommend this way of exploring the market area. Cham asked us about preferences and what we wanted to see/do/taste within the tour structure. It was very, very worthwhile.</p>

<p>We had a great time with Jaden showing us the markets. Very interesting to be in the hustle and bustle of Mumbai. Would never have been able to do this on our own you completely lose your bearings. Jaden was very helpful and throughly enjoyed the walk. Not too strenuous easy to do</p>

We didnt like Viator

Chetan est un guide genial... il connait la ville et est tres impliqué... Nous avons eu une experience extraordinaire avec lui Par contre Viator... pfff
