Namaste (Hello) I am Maya from Mumbai, India. Think of me as a friend who will take you around Mumbai , give you a little history of the places and habits of the people. Also tell you on where to eat, shop, where to party, and also where the Bollywood film stars live. Basically everything you need to know about MUMBAI, the city that always excites everyone, and also the city that never sleeps .

Everyone loves Bandra, a cosmopolitan area with hip bars and cafes . . . this suburb gives an extraordinary vibe which makes one feel connected. It is out of this love, that you should absolutely explore Bandra through food. But not the fancy restaurants that have taken Bandra by storm, one should actually go into the by lanes of Bazaar Road, Chapel Road and Pali Village to some of the lovely family eateries, where you can relish some authentic East Indian food. I can take you to experience the local food, or just take a walk down a promenade. . . . and have a peek at "Mannat" mansion. Drive through Pali Hill and marvel at the property rates. I can also take you saree shopping and teach how you to drape the saree. If you want to learn indian cooking, I can arrange for that and also let you sample the food.
