Shuaib Khan was as good a...
Shuaib Khan was as good a tour guide as you would want. He took us places we would not have gone without his expertise. We saw more of Mumbai than we could ever imagine.
Response from the operator: Dear Mam, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! 😊. We’re delighted to hear that Shuaib Khan made your experience so special and helped you discover parts of Mumbai you wouldn’t have seen otherwise. Showing guests the real spirit of the city is exactly what we aim for. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another memorable tour of Mumbai! Thanks & Regards, Bollywood Tours

A good introductory tour of Mumbai
The studio time was very interesting. We saw what goes on during a TV drama taping. The Marine Drive walk was fun. The slums were fascinating. So different than what we expected. Buzzing with small businesses. The Hanging Gardens weren’t that attractive. Maybe do a drive-by rather than spend time there.
Response from the operator: Dear Sir, Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the studio visit and found it interesting to see a TV drama in action. It’s also wonderful that you had fun exploring Marine Drive and found the slum tour insightful — it’s truly a vibrant community full of life and small businesses. We appreciate your feedback on the Hanging Gardens. We understand that preferences can vary, and we’ll consider adjusting the itinerary to allow for a quicker visit or a drive-by option so guests can make the most of their time. Your input helps us improve, and we’re happy you enjoyed the rest of the tour. We hope to see you again for more unique experiences! Best wishes,

It could have been better
The Dharvia Slums was the highlight for this trip and the Gandi museum. The Bollywood studio was more of a soap opera that was not what we were expecting and disappointed. They need to stress that it's the Bollywood experience, being at the studio felt like being in Universal studios were you go and see and want to move on. I expected the dance and song.
Response from the operator: Dear Mam, Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re glad to hear that the Dharavi Slums and the Gandhi Museum were highlights of your trip. Regarding the Bollywood studio, we’d like to clarify that it’s designed as a reality tour, offering an inside look into the world of Bollywood film production. The tour you selected focused on the studio itself, which doesn’t include the typical dance and song performances you might have been expecting. We understand this might have been a bit of a surprise, but the studio tour was chosen to enhance your experience in a different way. We appreciate your feedback and will make sure future visitors have a clearer understanding of the options available. We hope the rest of your trip was memorable and fulfilling! Thanks & Regards,

Great overview tour
Well organized trip that includes everything that we wanted see in Mumbai. I previously thought that for such many activities not enough time, but actually we did all sightseeing from the list and arrive at the airport earlier then expected. So 100% recommended
Response from the operator: Dear Sir, Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so happy to hear that the trip exceeded your expectations and that you were able to see everything on your list in Mumbai, all while arriving at the airport earlier than anticipated. We strive to offer well-organized tours that allow you to make the most of your time. Your recommendation means a lot to us! We hope to welcome you again on future adventures. Thanks & Regards,

It's always wonderful to have a local guide who can share their knowledge and make the experience even more special. We'll be sure to pass along your compliments to him.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Original Bollywood Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mumbai.
How much does Original Bollywood Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $60 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 Original Bollywood Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Original Bollywood Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 31 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 Original 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 Original Bollywood Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Original Bollywood Tour?
+
Around 11 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Original 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 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.
