Trip Overview

A private tour of the Jewish heritage in the bustling city of Mumbai. Take a 4 hours tour across many significant attractions of Mumbai and their connection to the Jews who call India their home since the past 2000 years.


Highlights

  • Visit Dhobi Ghat, Mumbai’s unique outdoor laundry system.
  • Discover the oldest synagogue in Mumbai.
  • Get access to handouts to understand the Jewish culture.
  • Visit Victoria Terminus (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and more during this private tour.

 

Detailed overview

Mumbai is a bustling, energetic metropolis and every area in the city has a flavor of its own. South Mumbai with its posh neighborhood and upscale bars, restaurants, and museums draws hundreds of tourists. South Central Mumbai has Worli sea face and several offices, West Mumbai suburbs are popular upper-middle-class residential areas, and North Central Mumbai has Dharavi, Asia’s second-largest slum, East and North Mumbai neighborhoods have developed rapidly over the past few years as a result of the vast urban sprawl. Mumbai has the Gateway of India monument and a visit this city is in many ways an introductory lesson to the mind-boggling diversity that India has to offer to its visitors.
