A guided morning through Mumbai's heritage core — Food & drink things to do in Mumbai

Half a day with a local guide through the Gateway, Marine Drive, and Crawford Market — the route shaped around what you actually want to see.

Half a day with a local guide through the parts of Mumbai you'd struggle to navigate alone: the Gateway of India and the colonial sweep along Apollo Bunder, Marine Drive at the Queen's Necklace, and Crawford Market for the morning rush of vendors and porters.

The route is shaped around your interests — colonial-era architecture, street photography, market commerce, or the Parsi neighbourhoods of Fort. An air-conditioned car and a driver wait between stops; the pace is unhurried. Guides are postgraduate history students from the University of Mumbai, briefed to skip the megaphone version and explain how the city actually works.

For the group tour option, you will need to assemble at the meeting point located near the Gateway of India, as pickup and drop-off are not part of this option. The guide and driver will be at Pizza Express near the Gateway of India. If arriving by flight, the pickup will occur at the arrival gate at the airport. If arriving via cruise, pickup will be at the exit gate of the port, specifically at the 'Green Gate.' Additionally, there is an extra fee of INR 2000 for pickup and drop-off if your hotel is near the airport or if you require pickup from the airport.
