What You Will Do
Known to many as ‘one of the largest slums in Asia’, we prefer to think of Dharavi as Mumbai’s beating heart, housing about one million people with an annual turnover of about US$ 1 Billion.
You will see a wide range of business activities: recycling, pottery-making, embroidery, bakery, soap factory, leather tanning, poppadom-making and many more.
We’ll also visit the residential areas; people from all over India have come to Dharavi and this diversity is apparent in the temples, mosques and churches that stand side by side.
You’ll see the community centre run by our NGO Reality Gives that is funded through profits from the tours.
We will pick you up from your hotel and head by car to Dharavi. If you are staying in South Mumbai (eg Colaba, Marine Drive) we will pass by various historical areas of interest and we’ll stop at Dhobi Ghat, the largest open air laundry in the world.
If you’re staying in North Mumbai such as Bandra or Juhu, then we will go directly to Dharavi.
