Experience the best of
Mumbai with Withlocals

"Fantastic experience with Juliana! She delivered a really immersive experience with 3 separate stops over the 3 hours with her (in spite of suffering with a nasty head cold) and we shared not only delicious and extremely local food - all vegetarian, all authentic - but also stories and traveller's tales. We were slightly nervous beforehand but needn’t have worried, it was a thoroughly enjoyable time throughout. Most importantly we tried things we would never have even considered ordering and, with a guide, our confidence levels (hygiene related, we are not in Mumbai for long and do not want to spend a disproportionate amount of time in the toilet) rocketed - my wife had been warned off Pani Puri by Indian work colleagues and friends but proved to be her favourite of the 10 (come hungry!) things we ate. Don’t come expecting a dining rampage across the city. We stayed reasonably locally around Dadar and we were happy with that but some people may not be. We visited 3 different venues but only 1 was an open air standing stall. This didn’t bother us at all but if you are looking for an exclusively ‘hawker market’ experience then this might not be for you. What we did get was a considerate host with local knowledge who provided us with as genuine an experience as you expect for middle aged folk from That London. Just don’t be afraid to specify if there are things you do and don’t want to do and you will have a great time. Thanks Juliana."

"We went on a Tasting tour with Chandramohan. He took us to very interesting places with really tasty and varied foods - and lots of it! He was such good company and told us all about the areas we visited and the history of the surrounding areas. We then booked the ‘off the beaten track’ with him & had such an interesting tour. We really got to know how things worked in Dharavi & see how it contrasted to other parts of the city. Chandramohan is obviously well liked by locals and has a real passion for his home city which allowed us to get the very best from our tours. Thank you Mohan - we can’t recommend taking a tour with you strongly enough."

"Purvi was very helpful and insightful; Practical and straight the point, she guided me through the shopping landmarks and had a heaps of patience :) Kindly recommend Purvi as knowledgable and up to the beat guide❤️"

"Knowledgable guide, the tour was exactly what I expected it to be, about the history, landmarks and anecdotes! Happy to recommend it to anyone interested in the above. "

"My family and I did the slum walking tour with Shrikanth and honestly, it was one of the highlights of our Mumbai trip. The guy really knows his stuff he's super knowledgeable about the area and explained everything in a way that actually made sense, not just random facts thrown at you. What we loved most was how respectful and genuine he was. You could tell he really cares about the community and wasn't just taking us through for the spectacle. He introduced us to locals, showed us how things actually work there, and answered all our (probably annoying) questions with patience. Shrikanth was also just really easy to be around friendly, professional, and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. Never felt rushed or awkward. If you're visiting Mumbai and want to understand the city beyond the tourist spots, definitely book with him. You won't regret it! "

"We had a very good experience with Shrikanth. He explained the history of the temples and gave a concise and informative tour. He is knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. When I return to Mumbai, hopefully Shrikanth will take me on a Street photography tour, as he is a very good photographer, with a very impressive portfolio."

"We had a great afternoon with Shrikanth The communication prior to the date was clear and Shrikanth was there is plenty of time to meet us. We visited lots of different locations and Shrikanth shared his knowledge of the food & culture. There was ALOT of food and by the end of the tour my husband and I struggled to finish the dishes even though each and everyone was delicious. Shrikanth took lots of photos during the afternoon and shared all of these with us after. At the end of the tour he helped us with our travel plans purchasing tickets for us and navigating the railway even making sure we were safely on the train before leaving us. A wonderful tour with great food that we would highly recommend."

"We had a auper morning with Chamdramohan. Very relaxed and chatty. He settled into our pace and style very well. Highly recommended."

"Chandra was a great tour guide. we did so much in the 5 hours, in fact it was closer to 6. Chandra was the perfect host, the chaib and the lassi were the best"

"Excellent experience at Elephanta Caves on 03/02/2026. Gautam is a truly lovely person, incredibly knowledgeable, and made us feel so well looked after. He handled all the tickets and logistics smoothly and was always quick to help over WhatsApp. We also really appreciated all the great tips he gave us for restaurants and other gems to discover in Mumbai. Highly recommended!"
