Eyes opening tour in Mumbai We were looking for local guide and some unique to see in Mumbai. As I have heard about the Asia's largest slum in Mumbai. This was our best date to meet Dinesh our guide for Mumbai Dream Tours. We found them online and it was very easy to book this tour. Guide and driver picked up from hotel. We did some sightseeing tour of Mumbai first and Dinesh our guide was very informative and knowledgeable. Then finally we had a walking tour in Mumbai slum know as dharavi. We got the right person to go with. Because Dinesh grown up in dharavi Slum and it's was amazing tour for us. It was a best combination tour we had in Mumbai. We highly recommend Mumbai Dream Tours and guide Dinesh if you are going to Mumbai!!

My review isnt really for their tour and travel business but for the NGO these guys run for the people in Dharavi. I got to know through social media that Rahul works towards collecting things to be redistributed amongst the needy in Dharavi. He was absolutely fantastic in sharing information and arranging for the pickup. His team member Vishal helped in transporting the entire lot of items seamlessly. Well spoken and impressive team, working towards a great cause

We did this tour in Dec last year and to be honest when we booked it I was rather sceptical since it was one of the more expensive activities that my 14 year old daughter who loved Bollywood wanted to do. We had done a tour of India for 18 days and this was what we did as the last thing before we flew home to the UK. We just didn't know what to expect. However.we were most pleasantly surprised. Rahil is the epitome of professionalism. Him and his wife met us and we did a group tour with around 4 other people. We saw the filming of a famous TV serial, watched a dance show, got an insight into some of the sets they use and I even got to do a bit of singing in the recording studio! We were given snacks as we watched the dance show and made to feel most welcome. I have done the big Universal and Warner Brothers tours before and they were great .... this had the makings of something really good and we hope Rahil and his team the best of luck in making this a success.
