The other side of Mumbai
It was informative and interesting. Our stereotypes about Bollywood and the Mumbai Slums have been destroyed . :) Of course, without the support of a guide we would not have gotten to know Mumbai from such a side. Thank You!

A must-have tour for cultural and enrichment!
Me and my girlfriend were staying for a week in Mumbai which is huge and 7 days is hardly enough… But fortunately we were lucky to find this tour. Guys, believe me, it is amazing! You need to see those two sides of Mumbai life. A private slum to see one end and a Bollywood for the other one. In combination they work perfect, giving you an almost complete (for luxury one - you can go for high-end luxury restaurant in some of the 5* hotels, like The St. Regis and it’s top-floor restaurant By the Maekong) and rich experience beautifully aligned in 1 day. The private slum is very informative and Bollywood activities are so much fun - do not by shy and try dancing with the actors as well as try signing the song of your choice! And keep asking all the questions about Bollywood movies - what is counted as a secret in Hollywood - your guides will amazingly explain everything in detail if you wish! You guides - Rahul and Kamlesh - fantastic guys. They have a very good English, they are cheerful and super supporting. You feel safe and organized with them. Don’t hesitate to reach with all possible questions about Indians and Mumbaikars - they know a lot and are always with you to share. They will never hurry you as well. In addition, I will mention that, they will never stress or hint on tips or whatever, but one super detail I liked about them (during our conversation) is that they consist in a supporting organization inside the Dharavi Slums where they try to gather funds to keep teaching children and organize courses for frowns ups. The one who reads, you are not forced to , but if you will leave a tip - you can be sure it goes for the better as well. Why I mentioned this - is because the biggest part of the tickets price goes for the Bollywood tour (not slums) as of brand and extra tickets- but this tour is incomplete without Dharavi slums and guys do very great job in addition to volunteering! Rahul and Kamlesh - thank you guys and best of luck!

Bollywood with slum tour
November 24 2019 I did the Bollywood with slum tour. It was two very different but great experiences. The guide Ms Asmita has great knowledge about Bollywood and we really got behind the scenes. We got to see a real Bollywood dance performance with amazing dancers. The only bad thing was that when we got to the studios they told us that there is no recording today because it was Sunday. The whole place was pretty empty. I think they should have informed us about that when we made the reservations. In the afternoon we went on to the slum tour. The slum tour was a great learning experience and we had a fantastic guide named Rahul. For me it’s important with authentic experiences and I have to say this was the really the thing. It can’t be more authentic than this. Rahul did a great job showing us that it’s so much more to the slums than you see on tv
Response from the operator: Thank you for such a valuable feedback. Our main aim is to satisfy our customers. Please do recommend us to your loved ones

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mumbai.
How much does Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE. cost?
+
Prices start at $138 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 Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE. take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 24 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 Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE.?
+
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 Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE.?
+
Around 8 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Private Slum and Bollywood Tour with DANCE. 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 Elephanta Caves & Island Guided Private Tour, Dharavi Slum Tour, Mumbai: Dharavi Slum & Dhobi Ghat Laundry 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.
