Mumbai Dharavi Slum Tour

About This Tour

Certainly, let’s explore the vibrant tapestry of Mumbai’s Dharavi slum. This tour takes you through one of the world’s most famous informal settlements, known for its resilience and ingenuity despite adversity. With over a million residents, it’s often called one of Asia’s largest slums. However, we prefer to view it as the beating heart of Mumbai, where life flourishes against all odds.

Dharavi is more than its reputation suggests. It’s a bustling industrial center with a staggering annual turnover of around $665 million. During this immersive walking tour, you’ll experience a wide range of businesses, from plastic recycling and pottery to bakeries, soap factories, and more. You’ll also navigate the maze of narrow lanes, witnessing the remarkable spirit of entrepreneurship that defines Dharavi.

But our tour is not just about business; it’s about connection. You’ll have the chance to explore Dharavi’s residential areas, gaining insights into the daily lives of its residents. Beyond being Asia’s largest slum, Dharavi unveils a rich tapestry of culture, community, and resilience. Join us on this extraordinary journey as we uncover the hidden gems and untold stories of Mumbai’s Dharavi.

Tour Highlights

Made famous by the movie Slumdog Millionaire, the Mumbai slum of Dharavi is one of the largest informal settlements in the world also known as ‘one of the largest slums in Asia’.

We prefer to think of Dharavi as Mumbai’s beating heart. It houses about over one million of Mumbai’s inhabitants and its industries have an annual turnover of approximately USD 665$ million.

Through this walking tour, visitors can experience a wide range of these business activities: plastic recycling and reusing, pottery-making, embroidery, bakery, soap factory, leather factories, papadam-making, alley ways, exploring various communities and many more.

You’ll also visit the residential areas of Dharavi. Discover a side of Dharavi beyond its disreputable distinction of being known as the largest slum in Asia.
