    5 star tours

    Bollywood tour was brilliant, very entertaining and professionally organised. This was the 4th tour we did with Reality Tours in November and they were all outstanding, imaginatively planned with plenty of attention to detail. The time flew past. Javed, Rishi and Sabina were all excellent guides, adding so much to the experience. Thank you!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Rosie! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the Bollywood Tour and that Javed, Rishi, and Sabina made your experience memorable. It’s fantastic to know that all four of your November tours with Reality Tours exceeded expectations. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you on another adventure soon!

    Good - Recommend

    Met at Churchgate Station. I was the only tourist, so like a private tour. 1 hour metro and walk to get to studios: - saw 3 x live filming - show on special effects and bollywood history - watched live dancing (x 4 different styles) - small bollywood museum Might have been better to meet at metro closer to the studios Good guide (Javid) - recommend

    Great tour and primer on Bollywood

    What a great tour… we did not no much about Bollywood to be honest but do now, having had the process and history of styles all explained. We were taken on set to see the props and how they were made, even seeing part of a shoot. (Note these are series not films)… a great morning and great guide

    Informative, engaging, eye-opening way to see Delhi

    We did two tours with Reality Gives: the Sanjay Colony tour with Shehnaz and the Old Delhi Street Food Tour with Naresh. Both were excellent. I was a little hesitant to do a slum tour, but the prohibition of photos and small group (it was just us two) made it feel less invasive. Shehnaz was kind and informative; willing to answer my myriad questions and giving us tons of information about everyday life in Sanjay Colony. We also enjoyed our tour with Naresh. The food was delicious, and it made it so much easier to navigate Old Delhi. If we'd gone on our own, I feel like we might've gotten overwhelmed and not known where to go. I'm so glad we went with a tour!

    Bollywood Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mumbai.

    How much does Bollywood Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $85 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 Tour 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 Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 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 Tour?

    +

    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 Tour 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 Tour?

    +

    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 Tour 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 Tour?

    +

    Included: Local English Speaking Guide; and Water / Cold Drink. Not included: Food; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Bollywood Tour?

    +

    There are four entrances to Churchgate Station, including two subways. The first photo shows the station as you approach from Colaba, and where the entrance is. Once inside the station. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Bollywood Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. 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 Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Bollywood Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Bollywood Tour?

    +

    Across 7 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, knowledge and storytelling, food and drink. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
