Mumbai Mumbai is better known as India’s financial capital and the home of Bollywood - radiating the same extravagance as the well-known film industry.

Take a walking tour to really appreciate firsthand the gracious and intricately detailed heritage buildings. Wander past the historic 18^th century homes in the village of Khotachiwadi. Cool off on a boat ride from the Gateway of India, a stone arch at the waters edge built in 1911 to commemorate the visit of King George V and his wife.

No visit is complete without stopping at Gandhi’s Mani Bhavan Museum for an intimate look at the man, his life and philosophies. Feel the heart of the city in the smells and frenetic energy of Sassoon Dock as the seafood catch is unloaded; experience the rhythm of life at Dhobi Ghat, the vast communal laundry where washing is still scrubbed, bashed and hung out to dry in the traditional way. And when the sun goes down – become part of the throbbing mass lounging around the seaside promenade.
