Hi, I'm Priya! I've lived in and loved Mumbai all of my life. I appreciate good food, a good book, animals, music, dancing, and loads of other stuff. I love travelling, and have been around quite a bit. . . seen India from corner-to-corner. I've lived in Sweden for a few months in Spring/Summer 2016 and been to parts of the US, UK, Canada, Australia, France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Estonia, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Egypt, the UAE, Kenya, South Africa, Mauritius, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, The Philippines and China. I've worked as a lifestyle journalist for 25+ years, including an eight-year stint with the Times of India, India's leading English-language daily. I was also the Editor of two parenting magazines for seven years and later headed a successful digital publication dedicated to travel and food, before I pursued my career in freelance writing (which I currently do). But, I still have enough time, energy and enthusiasm to help visitors to Mumbai find their groove. I would love to show you around my city! ABOUT MY TOURS Take one of my tours if you want to feel the REAL flavour of the city or get to a know a particular Mumbai neighbourhood. Think of me as a friend who will take you around her fave places, share a lot of interesting anecdotes and give you the lowdown on local haunts and habits. I can guide you on where to eat, shop, find a clean loo. . . basically everything you need to know to say that you really 'know' Mumbai! * A decade of serving up a slice of the real Mumbai to international guests. * 25+ years as a lifestyle journalist, I know my city and its people even better than the back of my hand. * Having extensively interviewed India's top historians, film actors, business tycoons, designers, chefs, doctors and individuals from many other walks of life, I will give you a unique perspective that few other people can! *As one of the leading writers on food and travel in Mumbai, I will lead you to the best culinary experiences, be it curated fine-dining or popular street eats. I don't do slum tours (on principle) or visits to the Elephanta island and caves (as these are meant to be conducted ONLY by guides certified by the Archaeologicsl Survey of india - ASI).

Overview of your Mumbai tour

Bombay has been on trade routes since ancient times and there's no knowing what you will find when you visit its antique shops! I've come across everything from Mughal jade daggers to ship's parts from the 19th century to matchbooks and Bollywood posters from the 40s! If you're a collector, chances are that there will be a collection of the things you collect that we can find somewhere in this city of teeming millions! On this tour, I'll take you to the best places for antiques in Mumbai. Be it shops in crumbling markets to the most knowledgeable antique dealers in Mumbai, you can do it all. It's a lot of fun rambling around the old shops and discovering treasures that you didn't even know you wanted. But the adventure apart, you can let me know if there's something specific you're looking for and I can help locate some options in advance.

Your Mumbai tour itinerary

On this tour, you'll get ample time to rummage through quaint shops and also to visit some stores that take restoration of antiques very seriously! The six hours include about an hour for lunch and a shorter stop for tea/coffee at a nice cafe too if you like.
