    Our cooking class with...

    Our cooking class with Chef Reshma was one of the highlights of our trip! She took us to her home market, which was interesting, and then back to her personal kitchen for the class and a meal. Reshma is so fun and we enjoyed hearing about her life. The food was amazing and we can’t wait to apply what we learned at home!

    Highlight of our Mumbai trip

    The market tour as well as the cooking class with Reshma is highly recommended. Travelling by TukTuk through Mumbai to the market was an experience. Reshma showed us the different vegetables and herbs at the market. Afterwards we prepared 3 vegetarian Indian dishes in Reshma`s kitchen. Reshma is a great hostess with whom we had a lot of fun and who made us curious about Indian cuisine. The cooking class was one of the highlights of our Mumbai trip

    A wonderful cooking experience!

    We had a wonderful experience with Reshma. From the moment we met at her apartment, we were made to feel welcome. Reshma told us all about herself and the meals that we were going to cook. We were taken to the market by tuk tuk, an experience in itself! Reshma bought us some snacks from a stall that she has been visiting since she was a young child. We then visited the market, where she showed us an array of vegetables which we had never seen before. Back at her apartment, we prepared and cooked the food under her guidance. Finally, we ate the together meal, which was fantastic. We highly recommend this experience, it was probably one of the highlights of our holiday.

    Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma cost?

    +

    Prices start at $39 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 Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Mumbai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma?

    +

    Around 5 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Mumbai Market Tour & Maharashtrian Cooking Class with Chef Reshma 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.
