Love, love, love the (safe) street food

The tastiest most fabulous tour. My stomach voted this as the best tour of our time in Mumbai. I just wish I hadn’t gone as crazily for the Vada Pav… with all the rest of the courses and locations to follow… Dosas, Lassi, ice cream and every variety of street curry. Top tip don’t eat beforehand and pace yourself. We went back to Chowpatty Beach the next evening to repeat part of the experience again it was so good. Really great to know some of the best and safest places for our European stomachs to eat real street food. Appreciated the additional tips on other places to eat out too
If you can only do one thing in Mumbai - do this

This tour was the best - streetfood is a must in Mumbai but can be risky for tourists. Sahil, our guide, took us to amazing places to eat, all of which had been vetted by Magical Mumbai.

We are living proof that they did a great job.

Each vendor uses clean water and has appropraite hygiene standards.

We couldn't eat as much as we were offered, we met some marvellous fellow diners, we were often the only Western folk in the eatery (on the street) and we returned to the vendors throughout our trip.

If money is tight for you in Mumbai - this trip will pay for itself as you will no longer be limited to hotels and fancier restaurants and the food on the street is WAY better (and more fun). You will meet some fascinating people, learn a lot and eat some of the best food in the world.
Excellent and flexible street food tour

Had an awesome experience from start to finish. The food was not only delicious but my tour guide Sahil - whose English is strikingly good- constantly had tons of much- appreciated information regarding not only the dishes and the city areas we were visiting but also of Indian culture as a whole. I booked this tour alongside the Dharavi slum and the market tour, doing this very tour on the same day I did the market tour. I had a flight that very same day and magical mumbai tours made sure to cater to my needs as they took me on both the market and street food tours one after the other, helping me out by transporting my luggage in a private vehicle and dropping me off at the airport afterwards. I decided to book these two tours with them after having an awesome experience visiting the Dharavi slum with them. I would definitely recommend enhancing your mumbai experience through mumbai magical tours.
Yum!!!!

Yash was a great tour guide. He took us by train to Chruchgate and walked and chatted to the beach where we had local Indian cuisine from a pop up truck. Excellent food- tried Bhel, Pav bhaji and Pani puri. Then we took cab to Muhammad Ali street which is popular with locals and tried Dosa (personally my favourite), the chicken seekh and lastly flavoured ice cream. The owners were all friendly and chatty. Great tour highly recommend!
More than just food - an experience
Michael B, 07-10-2022
Overall I’d say it was a great experience and more than just a food tour. Selling this as food only tour is underselling the experience. However there were a few issues I have with it, which is why I didn’t give a perfect rating.

Let’s start with the issues:
1. My guide was Sam and overall I’d say he was good and generally friendly but there were small verbal and non-verbal bits that weren’t great. I’d recommend focus more on the guest, try communicate more with them.
2. Too much trying too hard to sell me on another tour. Fine to mention it once, but then leave it be. I booked this tour don’t ruin it by trying you sell me even more.
3. There is a lot of walking, this should be made more clear. Not sure maybe our train didn’t stop where it was meant to stop, but we walked a long stretch just by the roadside.

The good:
1. Value: There is a lot of different food involved, 6 dishes including the ice cream so be prepared to eat a lot. This is all covered and water, the transportation and guide. So I think the value was good.
2. Food: good mix of selection, maybe not groundbreaking to one being familiar with Indian food but for me it was pretty good.
3. Food safety: I had no stomach issues after the food tour
4. Information: there was some background context provided by Sam on some of the food and it’s history so that was great
5. Experience: As I wrote before this is more than just food but a great experience which is the biggest plus for me amongst all. We took a local train ride, which is an experience in of it’s own and the last stop was at the thieves market which we got to see as well.

Overall it was a great and memorable experience which I can recommend just a few things that could be improved.
