Know before you go
  • This tour takes place from 9 am to 4 pm, as it is a private tour so you can choose your time.
  • The driver will pick you up from your hotel or residence and drop you off at your place in Mumbai.
  • A trip to a different country is usually made to enjoy a new culture, new food, new people, and new places. Still, apart from the touristy places, every city, state or country has some local areas which are usually frowned upon by the people, but they hold some wow! Factor within them which is beyond our imagination. Dharavi is a similar place in Mumbai, locally underappreciated and usually frowned upon because of being a slum. But this is not a usual slum. This is a city in itself with a population of over 1 million, more than seven schools, over 1500 single room factories, public and private hospitals, playgrounds, theatres, etc., all assembled in an area of nearly 2.7 sq km. 
  • Just as a meal is always incomplete without a delicious dessert similarly, a trip to Mumbai is always incomplete without a trip to the slums. 
  • The tour operators have a number of local guides who make it possible for you as a client to have unfettered access to the area, which helps you get an insider’s look into the 3rd largest slum in the world. Moreover, since the owners were born in the same community, they even have special arrangements to give back to the community where they come from therefore charity activities like giving free t-shirts to labourers, distributing free notebooks to kids, running free Henna Classes for underprivileged girls and employing people to make The Young Tours and Travels practise souvenirs from time to time. So, visit the slums with Young Tours and Travels and become a part of the 3rd largest slum in the world.
  • If you wanna go alone on this tour then the price is different and it is 60 USD.
