Kanheri Caves and Mumbai day trip - Nisan was wonderful and the driver was very safe. We learned so much about the Kanheri Caves and the city of Mumbai. We got to view the Gateway to India, the washing laundry station, the Jain temple and many many other points of interest. We had a great time on this days long adventure and recommend this trip to anyone. P.S bring lots of water to say hydrated.

Great Tour for US Tourists / Couples - My wife and I wanted to explore more of Mumbai, but through the eyes of a local. Our trip began with being picked up by Nisar at our hotel. We were taken to Kanheri caves. The whole time, Nisar was professional and friendly to us, and pointed out different land marks along with history as we drove the hour trip to the caves. He also stayed with us for the caves tour and promptly picked us up after. A bonus was that he took us to Leopold's Cafe where we got to enjoy a quick bite before taking us to see the remaining stops in the city. The car itself was very clean, brand new, and air conditioned. The only recommendation would be to bring additional water with you. Overall, we had a wonderful and safe experience.

Fantastic day - What a great day! We spent the day with guide Yash and learned and saw so much. We are a group of three including our 12 year old son. Started in the National Park visiting the Kanheri Caves and then the city tour. We had as much time as we wanted at each stop and Yash had superb knowledge of everything we were seeing and answered every question we had. The organisation with the driver was excellent. I unreservedly recommend this tour and Yash, there is nothing we would have changed.
