Traveler reviews
5 verified traveler reviews for Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
Ok, but slow and basic
Interesting but a bit basic. I think you need to know a bit and seen some Bollywood films and series to relate. We asked before signing up about if Sundays were quiet and were told more busy than other days but there was very low activity. Lucky to see 2 live shoots. More several short movies instead of actual guidance. The guide Neha and the driver did their best under the circumstances.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re glad you were able to see two live shoots and that Neha and the driver did their best to make the experience enjoyable. We’re sorry that the activity level on Sunday did not meet your expectations, especially after you had asked about it beforehand. We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the balance between the films and the live studio experience, and we’ll use it to improve the tour and set clearer expectations for our guests.

Sunday screening Bollywood
It was interesting that we got a chance to see recordings of two different TV series. But it was quiet here because of Sunday, which they said yesterday when we booked that it wouldn't be. There were fun elements with dancing and singing. Interesting with the films about how plays are done, but you can look that up yourself, I appreciate the live shows here more. We had Neha as a guide and she took care of us.
Response from the operator: Tack så mycket för att ni delar med er av er upplevelse! Vi är glada att ni fick möjlighet att se inspelningen av två olika TV-serier och uppskattade dans- och sånginslagen. Neha kommer också att bli väldigt glad över att höra att hon tog väl hand om er under besöket. Vi uppskattar även er feedback om söndagen och önskar att inspelningsplatsen hade varit mer aktiv under ert besök. Era synpunkter hjälper oss att förbättra upplevelsen för framtida gäster

Bollywood Tour in Mumbai film city
We got picked up from our hotel on time at 14:30 and dropped straight to the studios. At the studios we didn’t wait long in the waiting room for others to arrive. We then went onto to see some soap operas being shot and opportunity to ask questions. After, we went to a small theatre where we watched a combination of short videos on the history of Bollywood and some Bollywood dancing my 2 female and 2 male dancers which was very entertaining. We went up at the end and did some dancing with them and an opportunity to take photos with the dancers too. We then saw another soap opera being made and then did some Karoke at a recording studio. After this, we drove to see 4 Bollywood houses, Rekha, Aliah Bhatt, Shah Rukh Khan & Salman Khan. The tour driver then dropped us home around 19:30. Our guide Neha and driver JQ were absolutely brilliant, they were friendly, engaging and down to earth. I enjoyed the day lots of
Response from the operator: "Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so glad you had an enjoyable and immersive Bollywood experience. From visiting the studios and watching live shoots to dancing and karaoke, it sounds like a truly fun-filled day! Neha and JQ will be delighted to hear your kind words about their friendly and engaging guidance. We appreciate your support and hope to welcome you on another exciting tour soon!" 🎬✨😊

Bollywood Film Studio tour
We took the Bollywood Film Studio tour with Sahil. The complete experience was excellent with visit to sets, test the sound studio, costume photos and Bollywood dance, which you can join in if you like. The studios are small and the exterior is ramshackle compared to Hollywood, but it seems bigger on the inside, you get the Bollywood atmosphere and the guide and staff are very friendly with no hassling for tips. There was a guide to take care of the travel and a studio guide. We can recommend the tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Bollywood Film Studio tour with Sahil and that the experience met your expectations from start to finish. It's great to know that the spirit of Bollywood came alive for you, despite the modest exterior of the studios. Our team strives to provide a friendly and hassle-free.

Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mumbai.
How much does Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mumbai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mumbai is not rushed.
Is Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mumbai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mumbai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mumbai and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mumbai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mumbai?
+
On Outty we rank every Mumbai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Group Guided Walking Tour in Fort and Colaba, Elephanta Caves & Island Guided Private Tour, Dharavi Slum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mumbai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mumbai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance?
+
Included: Admission fees; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bollywood Studio Half Day Tour with Dance Performance?
+
