I did get food poisoning from this tour. It is quite long and the food is not that varied. Unfortunately they kept moving us to crowded locations even through crowded locations to eat food you could find anywhere and that was not that special. Spent almost an hour in taxi/metro and then 2 hours walking through a dense crowd to eat chicken and ice cream. This is not necessary.
Tolle und interessante Tour! Würde ich jedem empfehlen. Balaji hat viel von sich, seiner Familie und seinem Leben in Dharavi erzählt und hat geduldig all unsere Fragen beantwortet
La experiencia fue genial e impactante, gracias al guía tan dinámico y respetuoso, me sentí muy cómoda y fue agradable recibir la explicación tan detallada. Sin duda, volvería a hacer un tour con este guía. Fue muy amable
A very valuable and eye opening tour to see the many different cultures, jobs, schools and family living. It has changed my view of exactly what a slum is and means to the local people, I think this is an experience people should do in Mumbai for an overall better understanding. Balaji’s English was perfect and his explanations were interesting and easy to follow, his cheerful nature and knowledge made the tour 10/10!
Balaji provided excellent information and took us places that really helped demonstrate the true character of Dharavi. I highly recommend his tour
