fantastic experience in Mumbai - I wanted to share our fantastic experience in Mumbai, thanks to the exceptional services of Shreeji Tours n Travels. We connected with Mr. Vikrant online and planned our early August 2024 3-day trip through WhatsApp. We booked the city tour and the Dharavi Slum tour, both of which were private experiences with English-speaking guides and a driver. Our guides, Mr. Vikrant and Rakesh, were knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. The city tour was a wonderful introduction to Mumbai's culture, history, and politics. We were particularly impressed by Mr. Vikrant's flexibility in tailoring the tour to our interest in temples. The tour concluded with a visit to a local shop offering a stunning variety of sarees at incredible prices. The Dharavi Slum tour was a truly eye-opening experience. Rakesh, a local guide, provided invaluable insights into the daily lives of the residents. We visited both the industrial and residential parts of the slum, gaining a deeper understanding of the challenges and resilience of the community. We are incredibly grateful to Shreeji Tours n Travels for organizing such memorable tours. Mr. Vikrant's professionalism and the quality of the guides made our trip truly unforgettable. I highly recommend their services to anyone planning a visit to Mumbai.

Wonderful and unforgetable experience! - Our vacation with the family was awesome. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. We have been to the mosques, and ate a local dish in a local restaurant. It is really an unforgetable experience and I wish that we could extend our vacation for a few more days.

Wonderful day - We were in Mumbai for one day on a cruise and selected this tour. Our guide was Ankita Shah and she was wonderful! We easily understood her English and her knowledge of the city and all the sights was very helpful. She had surprise stops for us asking the way that added to our experience. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and she was able to adjust the tour to fit our limited time in port. Would highly recommend this tour.
