Slum Tour of Dhavari
Itinerary
We will start this tour in the vicinity of Mahim Station. From there, we head to Dharavi, the so-called ‘slum’ or marginalized neighbourhood of Mumbai, where the award-winning film Slumdog Millionaire was shot.
However, the conditions of the inhabitants are tougher than what is shown in the movie. Our English-speaking guide will tell you all about the history of this area during a tour which gives you a broader perspective on the contrasting sides of Mumbai.
During the tour, you will meet some of the residents of this slum. You will have the opportunity to speak to them and know first-hand what their day to day life is like. This is an experience which, undoubtedly, will leave its mark.
Finally, we return to the same point in Mumbai where the tour began.
