About this tour

A morning that brings together the three things people remember most about Dharavi: the industry, the craft and the family kitchen.

You walk the neighbourhood with a guide who lives there, sit at a potter's wheel in Kumbharwada and shape something with your own hands, then share a home-cooked meal with the family whose kitchen it came from. The same guide stays with you throughout, and the potter and the family are paid properly from the price.

Lovely experience, a little crowded in the markets but that's part of the charm. Guide was fantastic.
