My name is Jenny and I have been living in Mumbai for most of my life and could never think of settling down in any other city as Mumbai has left an indelible mark on my personality and life. I have fallen in love with this melting pot of a city where you can find great paradoxes and little joys at every turn. Mumbai is pulsating, alive, always on the move, vibrant, fun and much more…… My thirst for knowledge, interminable sensitivity and empathy, genuine warmth, endless excitement, tireless dedication are some of the abilities I discovered I had that lead me since the year 2008 to be a Coordinator in Mumbai for organizations that sent volunteers to India from different countries around the world. I am a homemaker having a deep passion for Indian cooking and having seen the desire that many of these volunteers have for Indian food, which prompted me to start an Authentic Indian Cookery Class for people from other nationalities who are visiting India which has helped me meet and interact with a lot of people from other countries who have genuinely appreciated my Indian dishes. They also get to participate in the cooking process and enjoy an authentic Indian meal as well. This penchant I have for interacting with people from other nationalities coupled with the joy and passion I have in showcasing Indian culture, tradition, heritage and hospitality has now culminated in conducting Cookery Classes, City Tours, Street Food Tours, Shopping Tours, Slum Tours, Market Tours and anything and everything that helps to showcase the essence of Mumbai to my esteemed guests. . My Hardwork and Openmindedness is what drives me to always improve and never settle for anything less than exceeding my guests' expectations. I have interacted with foreigners from different parts of the world - USA, Europe, Iceland, Australia, New Zealand South Africa, Thailand, Taiwan, HongKong, China, Japan, Singapore and am very comfortable with them. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments.

You will be taken to a market area where there are many similar shops selling a variety of gold jewellery both real and imitation and you will be spoilt for choice. There are shops too that have precious and semi-precious stones that are set into beautiful designs. After jewellery shopping we will proceed to a large area where you will get mesmerised with so many shops that sell sarees that you could buy as décor for your homes or dress up in one to look like an Indian Diva!!!!! In this market you will also come across different kinds of fabric that may interest you. If we finish from here early enough I could take you to another area not too far away to shop for fashionable items like junk jewellery, clothes, bags, etc, all on one street. I will bargain for you wherever I can!!!!!!

We had a delightful day with Jenny! She listened to our desires and customized the perfect tour for us. We were looking for nice stores and a good lunch spot. The van and driver were excellent. After several days in India it was refreshing to be guided with her expertise and warmth. Thank you for sharing a great day with us!
We found Jenny very knowledgeable and polite. We had a lot of issues on board the ship which made us 2 hours late. Jenny was in contact though out and was waiting when we got off the ship. We went to the places asked for and in our experience she went above what we would have expected. The air con car was a bonus. Would use her again. Jean Chapman
Fabulous tour with Jenny. It was like shopping and sightseeing with a good friend. The tour was tailored to my needs and super flexible. Jenny is very knowledgeable and passionate about Mumbai and her country. I'd highly recommend.
1. I will pick you up from your Ship Cruise point at 10 am. 2. We will ride in an air-conditioned car to the area for shopping. 3. If you are tired and want a drink you could have Mumbai's famous Falooda from a reputed restaurant in the area. 4. Also if we have time then we could go and visit another shopping area in the vicinity for fashionable items.
