About this tour
Mumbai changes after dark. The heat drops, the promenades fill up and the Gothic landmarks light up against the night sky. This tour shows you that side of the city, with a guide who has walked these streets all their life.
Take the group tour on foot and by local transport, ending under the floodlit arches of Victoria Terminus, or the private tour with an air-conditioned car and hotel pickup to cover more ground at your own pace.
