Hi!

Thanks for the information, your blog is always very helpful. I went on a slum tour with Reality tours and while it sounds strange, it was actually very eye opening and consciously minded. No photos are allowed to respect people’s privacy, the guide had actually grown up there, and the money goes towards funding educational programs for children living in the slums. Far from exploitive, it was educational, connecting, and responsibly put together. I’m sure a private tour with a friend would be amazing, though not possible for most people. As a traveler who is concerned about ethics, I found this tour to be a positive experience and would definitely recommend it. I believe it’s important to see first hand how other people live and it might inspire someone to help make change. :)

Very excited to be making my second trip to India at the end 2015/beginning 2016, heading south this time, then Gujarat to visit Hubby’s relatives. It’s looking like we may have a day to kill in Mumbai, so thanks for the tip about Chor Bazaar.
Found you thru your “What to wear..” post, so I’ll add my two-cents worth on appropriate dress over there.

Seems to me that sometimes the best way to “explore” India is just to be there. To watch all the craze happening around you. To smell the extreme smells and see the extreme sights. Really missing India!

We love coming to Mumbai early in the morning – the city is absolutely charming at 6 a. m. There is no one at the Gateway of India and you can enjoy the sunrise over the Arabian Sea in peace. Then we take a bus at the National Gallery of Modern Arts and go to the Hanging Garden, observing the city slowly waking up. In the Garden I enjoy some flower photography, and also there is a beautiful view at the Marine Drive (Queen Necklace).
