Vrushali, was our guide, on time and explained well all the foods we tried with historical context. Lovely girl, good knowledge and 4 hours went quickly and walked quite a distance at manageable pace. Would recommend this tour for trying foods you would not normally eat. Safe and ensured we had no allergies, and that we were comfortable with spice level.

Great tour!!

Val_S, Feb 2026
This is a great tour!!! we visited multiple eateries, including several that have existed for over a century in Mumbai. We had a variety of foods and all were delicious. Our tour guide Vrushali was able to explain about the history and the contents of the food. By the end of the tour, I was completely full. We also were able to explore many different streets some of which I would never have come across on my own. Very, very satisfied.

Great

sarahharbour1970, Feb 2026
Great food, great evening and great guide. Sunil gave us lots of information about the food we ate and the places we went to eat at. Highly recommend.

Great food but consider end point logistics

Sonia_G, Jan 2026
This was an amazing experience walking through the back roads of Mumbai and eating the street food. Never would I have done this on my own. The food was delicious. My only comment would be the end point and making your way home. We ended in a very very busy market area. An area where a hired driver or Uber would not be able to get through. Leaving the area would require taking a local taxi / ricksha. Being a solo female on the tour, this was a scary option. Luckily the tour guide helped and others in the group walked together to a main location where an Uber could be called. This end point and the way to get back to hotel should be well thought out in advance to all on the tour.

An amazing food experience

Fred_D, Jan 2026
What an amazing experience. There was a wide range of street food that we tried and each one was delicious. Şųñíļ, our tour guide, had an extensive knowledge of Mumbai, its history and its various cuisines, This food tour is not to be missed!

Great way to spend an evening if you dont eat anything after breakfast!

Jonas_E, Jan 2026
"come hungry" does not come close to prepare you for this! We had 17 different breads, dishes, snacks and 3 different drinks. The guide we had was very knowledgeable about the heritage of both restaurants/food carts and the food itself. All in all it took about 3.5-4h and we went straight home to sleep!

I absolutely loved my food tour of Mumbai with Pooja! She shared culture and insights along the way, and introduced us to so many delicious foods I never would have found on my own! Beyond the food, she made the experience unforgettable by giving us the experience of riding the local train, which added a whole new dimension to understanding the city and it's crowds! Pooja was open, warm, and fun. Her recommendations were great and she created a comfortable environment where we could ask questions, try new things, and enjoy every moment!

Delicious and fun

Great way to try a variety of Mumbai street food in just a couple hours. All of the places we tried seemed local and authentic, and we even got to ride on the Metro.

Extraordinary Food Tour

Eshwar_S, Oct 2025
It was phenomenal food conducted by Vrushali! She is passionated and a great story teller! Enjoyed every tadtymorsel ! Each food item was explained in detailed with different regional variations! Its a food historical class and culinary class all intertwined into one. Sidenote: The streets are confusing to nagivate and just a directional map doesn't sometimes cut it. A simple instruction such as turn left would help in the future. It was well known that there was a festival going on. Directing your customers in the thick of the mayhem to obtain uber, where it was next to imposible is not advisable. Therefore consideration should be excercise in situations like this to facilitate a smooth connection in the future.

I had a very good time tasting Indian street eats and classics with Vrushali. The tour was well organised and i was impressed with how the guide conducted the tour throughout.

The street food that fuels the City of Dreams

Marcus_U, Sep 2025
The Bombay Express Mumbai food tour was the perfect culinary introduction to the City of Dreams. Our tour guide was the affable and knowledgeable Sunil who, over the course of four hours, introduced us to a wide variety of street food, encompassing dosa and puri kiosks that have been there for generations, Parsi neighbourhood institutions, as well as sweet treats. As recommended, arrive hungry, and perish any thought of Indian street food being unsafe as this was amongst the freshest and tastiest food I have ever enjoyed. Highly recommended!

Take this tour!

Andy_L, Jul 2025
Come with an empty stomach and the willingness to try! Despite the many comments or info you may have heard about hygiene of Indian street food, Sunil (awesome dude) brought me to some of the absolute gem in terms of food that I would not have braved trying. The selection of food choice was super nice and the company of Sunil and his commentary was both informational and fun. 👍

Come hungry is right.

Anuj_N, Apr 2025
Great tour with Vrushali. Lots of food (more like 19 items than 15) and we ate at some great spots that i would never try if solo. My fave was the dillkush dosa - a mumbai update to the south indian staple. Also taking the train was cool. Only potential negative is that i would have liked a little more about mumbai history v just the food but thats maybe best for another tour…

Amazing Mumbai Food Tour

Josephine_M, Apr 2025
This tour was excellent - perhaps the best we have ever done! Great value for money, really knowledgeable guide and delicious, plentiful food stops and tastings - definitely go hungry! 🤩

Excellent street food tour

Anonymous, Mar 2025
We really enjoyed this authentic Mumbai food tour where we tried a lot of different foods from street food stalls and local cafes. Sunil was very personable and knowledgable and gave us a unique insight to life in Mumbai, as well as explaining about all the food we were eating. Most importantly, our stomachs were fine afterwards! Highly recommended.

Must do while in Mumbai

William_B, Mar 2025
This is a must. Such a great and easy way to experience a wide set of foods safely (especially street foods). Everything was spectacular, our guild was so knowledgeable and sweet, group sizes were perfect. All in all great experience.

I was taken out of my comfort zone

An excellent tour led by Vrushali who was so knowledgeable about not only the foods but the area as well. She introduced us to foods we hadn’t tried before and for that I am very grateful! Everything was delicious!

Rhianna_J, Feb 2025
Such an authentic, brilliant experience. We would never have known what to order at street food vendors but Ronnie made sure we tried the best, traditional food. Included a tour of local areas that was really interesting. Full of food.. so definitely come hungry!

A tour with the taste of the real Mumbai

Laura_s, Feb 2025
Great tour with an excellent guide Bruchel? , giving you an experience of the real streets and tastes of Mumbai. Would never have found these places or felt comfortable enough to visit and try the foods provided on this tour. Good food with a bit of history and sights of the people of Mumbai

Huong_D, Feb 2025
Ronny was very knowledgeable about the preparation of the foods. We took the Mumbai local train which was an interesting experience. There is a lot of food so come hungry.

Pamela_C, Feb 2025
Lots of walking involved,into the real Mumbai, , saw lots of interesting things gs along the way, ate at various Venus, cafes ,and street food vendors amazing experience, fabulous knowledgeable guide Sunhil

Excellent, interesting, delicious tour

Sarah_S, Feb 2025
Excellent tour! Lots of different tastings of all sorts of foods. Our guide Vrushala was brilliant, friendly and informative. Loved walking the busy streets with her. She even helped us travel back to our hotel by going part way with us and then finding another friendly local to get us into a taxi for the end part - above and beyond! I would thoroughly recommend - especially if you are with Vrushala.

Amazing Mumbai food tour!

Tiff_S, Jan 2025
5 stars! My amazing guide Vrushali brought us to 11 places, and I was stuffed. Make sure you come hungry! She was knowledgeable about the various dishes, ingredients, flavor notes, and history. This tour is a great way to see what Mumbai has to offer in their food culture. Some of my favorites were sweet curd (for those kefir fans), dahi batata puri, mutton kheema pav, and dilkhush dosa. Highly recommended for foodies!

Fabulous food tour …. Come hungry!

Annalisa_L, Jan 2025
We had the best food tour with Sunil last night he was super knowledgeable and friendly. Loved catching the train, and every thing we had to eat was delicious and was not bad on our tummies…. Phew! A highlight of our weekend in Mumbai as you really go off the beaten tourist path. Come hungry and don’t go mad at the start there is so much to try!
