Drive Past: Bombay University
Established in 1857, the University of Bombay is one of India's oldest and most prestigious universities. Modeled after the University of London, it was founded in response to a petition from the Bombay Association to the British colonial government in India. A famous landmark of Mumbai India, the Rajabai Clock Tower was completed in the 1870s and is home to the university's library. The tower was funded by local businessman Premchand Roychand, who named it in honor of his mother, Rajabai. Today, the University of Bombay is a leading institution of higher education and a symbol of Mumbai India's intellectual and cultural legacy.
Visit: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus in Mumbai India, India, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and historic railway station. Built in Italian Gothic style, it was completed in 1887 to commemorate Queen Victoria's 50-year rule. With its ornate design, stained glass windows, and iconic status, it's a must-visit for travelers to Mumbai India.
Visit: Gateway of India
The Gateway of India is a magnificent arch-monument in Mumbai India, India, constructed in the early 20th century to commemorate the landing of King George V and Queen Mary in December 1911. Its construction marked an important moment in India's colonial history, and the gateway was used as a ceremonial entrance for British dignitaries. The monument also has a significant place in India's struggle for independence; it was from here that the last British troops departed in 1948, following India's independence. Today, The Gateway of India is a popular tourist destination and a must-visit landmark for anyone interested in Mumbai India's history and cultural significance.
Drive Past: Marine Drive / Queen’s Necklace
Marine Drive is a 3-kilometer long promenade shaped like a 'C' along the coast of a natural bay in Mumbai. It is also known as the Queen's Necklace because of the street lights resembling a string of pearls at night. The beauty of this spot is further enhanced by several Art Deco style buildings that are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. These buildings, combined with the sparkling Arabian Sea, give Marine Drive a distinct charm and has earned it the nickname "Miniature Miami." Visitors can take a leisurely walk, admire the stunning architecture, and immerse themselves in the lively atmosphere of this popular destination in Mumbai.
Visit: Hanging Gardens
The Hanging Gardens, also known as Pherozeshah Mehta Gardens, offer stunning sunset views over the Arabian Sea from the top of Malabar Hill in Mumbai India. They were designed in 1881 by Ulhas Ghapokar to cover the main reservoir and feature animal-shaped hedges. The Hanging Gardens Path inside the park spells out the initials PMG in cursive when viewed from above.
Visit: Gandhi Museum
Mani Bhavan was Gandhi's Mumbai India headquarters for 17 years, where he initiated several movements including Non-cooperation, Satyagraha, Swadeshi, Khadi, and Khilafat. The building is now a memorial maintained by the Gandhi Smarak Nidhi, with a photo gallery, a library, and exhibits of Gandhi's personal belongings, including his spinning wheels and his bed on the floor. The museum also displays letters addressed by Gandhi to President Roosevelt and Hitler. In 2010, President Barack Obama became the first high-profile international visitor to visit the Mani Bhavan Gandhi Sangrahalaya in 50 years, where he toured Gandhi's room.
Drive Past: Bombay High Court
The Bombay High Court is one of India's oldest and most renowned High Courts, established in 1862 under the High Courts Act, 1861. It was one of three High Courts established at the Presidency Towns by Queen Victoria's Letters patent. The High Court building, located in the Fort area of Mumbai India, was constructed in the Early English Gothic Revival style and features impressive statues of Justice and Mercy. Construction began in 1871 and was completed in 1878. Today, the Bombay High Court remains an iconic symbol of India's legal system and a must-visit landmark for anyone interested in Mumbai India's rich history and cultural heritage.
Photostop: Dhobi Ghat
Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat is an iconic open-air laundry facility located in Mumbai India, India, where the washers or "dhobis" work in the open to clean clothes and linens from Mumbai India’s hotels and hospitals. The place has been operational since 1890 and is accessible from the Jacob Circle monorail station. Dhobi ghat is a phrase used all over India to refer to any place where many washers are present, and the Mumbai India Dhobi Ghat has inspired the construction of similar facilities in other parts of southern Asia.

Amazing tour
We had a fantastic time! Sufiyan covered all the Mumbai sights and was super knowledgeable about history and answered all our questions. He was great catering to our mixed group of first-timers, kids, etc. Highly recommend! The local train ride was a real eye opener. The station looks amazing and intimidating at the same time. It’s definitely something to go see with a local.
