One of the owners picked me up at my hotel with a driver, transferred me to a guide at the slum, picked me up after 2 hours and got me back to my hotel. Such hospitality! My guide lives in Dharavi, so he knew exactly where to take me (or not take me). Such a unique and revealing experience. No pressure to buy anything. He was more interested in me understanding the complex dynamic in the slum. You will need to wash your shoes when you are done, but it is worth it. It is safe but far from clean.
