Think of me as a friend who will take you around and not only a tour guide in Mumbai

About Maya Tour Guide Mumbai

  • Namaste (Hello) I am Maya from Mumbai, India. Think of me as a friend who will take you around Mumbai city. I will get you acquainted with the places and habits of its people.
  • This is the city that excites everyone. This is the city that never sleeps. And I am here to tell you everything about this city that you need to know with my perfectly curated Mumbai Tour.
  • From Gateway of India to Dhobi Ghat, the largest open-air laundry. Let me show you where to eat, shop, where to party, and also where the Bollywood film stars live. 
  • Whether you hopped off a cruise ship or just here on a weekend getaway, I will help you explore Mumbai city like a local through exclusive sightseeing tours.
  • You would be glad to know that Mumbai is not just a city. It is an emotion. A place where everyone is fanatical about Bollywood. The magnitude of the magnetism of this swarming metropolis is hardly inescapable.
  • Its fandom has millions and millions of followers and you could be one among them. You will be a true aficionado of Shahrukh Khan or Salman Khan along the way as we pass their opulent residences.
  • The more time you spend here, the more you collect memories that will last for a lifetime. There are countless stories to tell about this wonderful city and I am your narrator. One by one each place we visit would feel like another chapter in this story of Mumbai. And you are playing the lead role here.
  • After all, a mother is called – MUM in English, BA in Gujarati and AI in Marathi. Here in Mumbai, even though we speak different languages, there is only one dialect that is prominent. That is being a 'Mumbaikar' and a seamless love for this city.
  • Talking of Beautiful Mumbai where even the BEST bus conductor motivates us ”Chalo aage badho” meaning please move forward. That is what's the primary driver of Mumbaikars to always move forward and not look back.
  • Mumbai is an ideal place to collect memorable souvenirs. You could shop at Fashion Street, Colaba Causeway, Zaveri Bazaar, Chor Bazaar and many more. Hey, let's not forget to drop by Crawford Market, the biggest wholesale market in Mumbai.
  • Mumbai also has one best airport in the world - the Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. One of the busiest single-runway airport in the world. It is not the flawless service that you would love, but the exquisite architecture of this place that's worth noting.

What do I offer on my Mumbai Tours?

  • I live in Bandra West, one of the western suburbs in Mumbai, where there are quaint ancient villages and old seaside charm and the place where time stands still here. It is also called the Queen of the Suburbs.
  • Bandra is where lies remnants of defunct Portuguese rulers. The Catholic chapel of Mount Mary is one such beguiling fragment.
  • Unlike general Mumbai tour guides, I take you the best local food joints to grab a bite of all the best street food of Mumbai. Bhelpuri, Pani Puri, Pav Bhaji, Vada Pav, just name it! Relishing food options are endless in the City of Dreams.
  • We can go do some saree shopping and I will teach how to sling its tricky bewildering folds. A traditional Indian clothing takeaway for you to add in your wardrobe. There are various types of sarees to choose from. And I will help you choose the best one that suits your calibre.
  • How about we spare some time to learn how to cook Indian food. If you wish to learn the art of Indian cooking, I will gladly arrange for that and also let you sample the food. You can also have a warm meal with a local family and get to know about the Indian family, culture, traditions, and lifestyle.
  • Being a people‘s person and working experience in the hospitality industry for the last twelve years, give me an edge. From here stems my love of meeting different kinds of people. I am not a professional Mumbai guide. I am a devoted local who would love to show you around.
  • Take my tours, if you want to get the real feel of Mumbai as well as see a particular Mumbai neighborhood. It will surely be the best time of your life.
  • I can customize your tour according to your requirements with prior intimation.

Come fall in love with Mumbai!
