If you do just one trip, do this one - Excellent tour. Our fabulous guide Nisha was very knowledgeable as she has lived her whole life in the slums. We felt totally safe as 2 female visitors. The viator guide, Mr Bram, also stayed with us, and he was excellent. Pick-up and drop off were as arranged. We would definitely recommend this tour. We were even invited to have a traditional cup of tea with Nisha and her mother, we saw 1st hand how the family live. An experience we will never forget. Thank you so much.

Adventure - Our guide Victor was from this area. Having a local guide provides invaluable insights that a general tour couldn't offer.
He explained and showed us how daily is here. How people work in the garment district. From the very beginning to the end.
Everyone was so friendly especially the children. This highlighted the warmth and welcoming nature of the community, creating a memorable experience for us.
We were interacting with the people, which is the best way to learn about another culture. I highly recommend this tour with Victor.

a great experience of real life - Great experience, Viktor has been fantastic in giving us a real vision of the life in the slum. we also had the opportunity to visit the inside of the slum and it was really astonishing to see how they organize their life. don't think to a degradated place, is a micro-world where everybody have an activity and children have instruction. we warmly suggest this visit with Viktor.

highly recommended walking tour and the highlight of our India trip. - This awesome “slum tour” was a totally safe one, we found NO beggars at all and all locals were busy with their work and small-scale units / setups. The guide came from the local slum itself and was highly engaging, we were so proud that he was so fluent in English and also training other slum kids as the future guides. Slum dwellers are actually hardworking people always looking to work and live around the nearby manufacturing facilities. Many of them are fabric recyclers, mechanics etc. We also visited an English-speaking coaching centre run by an NGO, it was a fun place for the slum kids to get trained in English, since English speaking abilities fetch jobs quicker in India. Truly an overwhelming experience which we will always remember.

When the going gets tough, then tough gets going, salute to the slum dewellers for their hard work - An enlightening tour with a learning experience! Thank you to Mr Jay for the nice tour and. This tour connects with the people of the local community and make them feel comfortable while we watched their daily work and lives. Everywhere we were taken, people were friendly and welcoming. Although living in slums is a tough situation but that doesnot stops them to strive hard for a better life. Will definitely recommended this amazing tour company and this tour that gives back to the communities

Amazing work and living spaces in the slum, small manufacturing hubs inside too! - This was without a doubt one of the best things I have done in the city of Delhi. It is amazing to have the opportunity to walk around both the work and living spaces within the slum. It is so interesting to see what goes on in each of the workplaces. Dolly was a fantastic guide. She was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions at both the slum and its local lives. She was very friendly and made sure I was on my way safely after the tour too. The tour is also great value so highly recommend!

Interesting experience - I was traveling with my 14 years old son. We picked this tour based on reviews, people highly recommend this tour. We were a little scared at the beginning when locals gathered around us and were staring at us as our tour guide was making introductions. We had amazing tour guide Vijay, he assured us that it would be safe. It was indeed safe, I felt absolutely safe inside slum area. Locals were very friendly, kids were following us saying "Hello" and asking where did we come from. We visited doctor's office, temple, school, and a small community center. As other noted, locals have very limited means, but they keep up with their lives and are just trying to make a living.

Spirited people having no complaints towards the life - Spirited people proudly making their ends meet, dwellers in the slum are hard working people who are always busy in some or other work to survive. Though they had small spaces but still I saw their national flag proudly adorning their rooftops. So motivational! Also the stepwell that was shown before the slum tour was astonishing.
