Description
On the first part of your tour prepare for a 1-hour walk inside the Dharavi slums. Find out why Dharavi is the is the heart of small-scale industries in Mumbai, with an annual turnover of approximately $665 million. Experience the frenetic activity of the area and marvel at the small spaces in which recycling, clay pot making, embroidery, baking, soap manufacturing, leather tanning, papad (poppadum) making, and many other activities take place. As well as discovering the industry of the Dharavi slums, pass by residential areas to get a feel of how people live. Sense the community spirit and diversity in an area where people from all over India and from all religions live. See Hindu temples, mosques, and churches, and lose your sense of direction as you venture through the narrow alleys. Next, prepare for a 1.5 Hour walk . The tour will take you to the Gateway of India, one of the famous destinations of Mumbai. It was also the place where the last of the British troops departed.

After this tour, a 10 minute walk will take you towards the Prince of Wales Museum. Appreciate the craft of George Wittet, designer of the building, from outside. Opposite to the Museum is Elphistone College, a Gothic-Victorian-style university. Then on the Mahatma Gandhi Road, you will see another historic building named David Sassoon Library. It was named after the Jewish businessman, David Sassoon, who funded the structure. Adjacent to the library awaits Army and Navy Building. It was used as a British army navy store. Then you will walk towards the University of Bombay. After this, visit the High Court of Mumbai. Then walk towards the Flora Fountain, a stone fountain made in the Fort business district, South Mumbai. Later on, we move towards a historic railway station named Victoria Terminus Railway Station.
