MUMBAI BY LOCAL TRANSPORT TOUR
📍 Mumbai, Maharashtra | 🕓 5 Hours – Half Day | 🕓 8 Hours – Full Day
Explore the City Through Its Lifelines
Mumbai moves at lightning speed — and what keeps it going are the trains, buses, cabs, and the incredible people who ride them daily. This tour gives you a true taste of the local life and the pulse of the city — not from the back seat of a tourist van, but by stepping into the shoes of a Mumbaikar.
Hop aboard Mumbai’s famous local trains, iconic red BEST buses, the classic black-and-yellow taxis, and zippy auto rickshaws (tuk-tuks) to explore everything from bazaars and backstreets to colonial buildings and coastlines. It’s fast-paced, energetic, raw — and absolutely unforgettable.
