Description
Enjoy an absolutely authentic experience, with facts and stories narrated by someone whose life is tightly woven into the soul of this marvellous metropolis.
And it all begins with a nice Indian tea!
After you meet up at Regal Cinema-an iconic Art Deco cinema theatre in Colaba, Gufram takes you to relish a glass of hot chai (tea) in a typical Mumbai place. That sets you up for the rest of the absorbing trip through south Mumbai!
Next stop is Sassoon Docks - one of the oldest docks built in 1875. Followed by a visit to observe traditional laundry washing, meeting a resident family in one of the sprawling slums, the fisherfolk's village.
A ride on the Marine Drive and then a history lesson at Gandhi House. And deeper into history with a visit to the ancient Banganga Holy Tank (built in the 12th century).
The holy trail leads to the Jain Temple followed by relaxed moments in the Hanging Gardens and Kamala Nehru Park. And finally to the architectural grandeur of the Victoria Terminus!
Enjoy an absolutely authentic experience, with facts and stories narrated by someone whose life is tightly woven into the soul of this marvelous metropolis.
