This 3-hour long tour pioneered by No Footprints gives you an insider's access into the soul of Mumbai! You will be prive to the backbone of the city's trade and what makes it truly tick. From exploring community trade and auction of 50 tonnes of fish at the docks, to the sorting of 7 different languages of newspapers; from flower markets to the story of the mills; this tour pays homage to the people of Mumbai- restless, hardworking and affluent.

From the markets to the communities who make it possible, get a chance to see all the action for yourself.

Witness a unique side of Mumbai, almost like secret, unfold as you you explore the city at Dawn.

Needless to say, it comes at a price – Waking up at 5.15 for one!
