Moin,
hab grade bei mumbaimagic eine Tour gebucht. Wir haben uns für die Option 1 entschieden.
Ich hatte die per Mail angeschrieben und folgende Antwort erhalten, falls noch jemand Interesse hat. Zum übersetzten kann ich DeepL empfehlen
MUMBAI MAGIC
SHIP: MEIN SCHIFF
Ship arrival: Arrives 4 am on Friday 23 November 2018
Departs the same day at 9 pm
Tour date: Fri 23 NovFor passengers arriving on cruise ships, we offer custom tours in Mumbai
that include pickup and drop from/to the docks.
You can choose from the two options below.Option 1: We are making a German speaking group of 16 people for this option.
The coverage is as follows – 9 to 4 pm - Mumbai Must-sees and Bazaars If you are in Mumbai only for a day, this tour offers a perfect introduction to the city. It tells the story of the transformation of Mumbai from a mono-cultural sleepy fishing hamlet into a melting pot that is today the commercial capital of India. The tour will showcase all aspects of Mumbai – the narrow geographical layout, the coastline, the daily commuting, the various communities that make up the city, the old heritage district, the old commercial and residential districts and the upcoming districts. The tour includes a short walk through the Fort Heritage District. The ‘Fort’ refers to a fort built by the British East India Company, hugging the eastern coast, which was demolished in the 1860’s. When you walk inside the Fort Heritage District, you will see an amazing variety of historic landmarks and buildings, constructed in different styles of architecture and built in a variety of materials. Each building tells a fascinating story, about the men who built it, and the historic events associated with it. We will visit the iconic Gateway of India, and the area around it, including the Taj Hotel. We will walk from there through Regal Circle and the heritage buildings there, including the Prince of Wales Museum, NGMA, Police Headquarters, The Kala Ghoda Art Precinct, Bombay University and the Oval Maidan. We will see Flora Fountain, the grand Victoria Terminus and the Municipal Building. We will visit Mani Bhavan (Gandhi’s home in Mumbai), drive through Marine Drive and Chowpatty Beach, and visit the popular laundry Dhobi Ghat. We will also visit a local bazaar to look at daily life in the city. The guide will choose the bazaar based on the day of the week,
different bazaars are open on different days. There will be a break for lunch in between.Option 2 - A private tour for you with English-speaking guide. In this case you can decide what you want to see.
The prices of our tours per day effective from 1-MAY-2017 are as follows.

We have great reviews on Cruise Critic and Trip ad visor and it is easy to find people who want to book with us.
The price we charge includes the following:
- Pick up from inside the docks (Chauffeur-driven air-conditioned Toyota Innova car) at the point where your ship berths. For larger groups above 4 people, we use an air-conditioned coach. The driver and guide will wait with a placard / signboard with your name on it.
- Cultured, highly qualified and knowledgeable lady guide. I have fourteen guides - they are no-nonsense women who know the city intimately, and like showing it to people. They speak English, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, French and Arabic. They each have 15-20 years experience in guiding, or more.
- Well researched and personalized tour itinerary that is fluid through the day to accommodate guest preferences.
- Shopping assistance (we have a list of recommended fixed price shops where the quality of goods is assured and guests are not subjected to haggling. Alternatively, we can take you to local bazaars to experience street shopping). There is no shopping on the tour unless you expressly ask for it; there is so much to see and experience that we prefer to focus on sightseeing. But please tell the guide if you want to buy something; they know the best places and can help you.
- All entrance tickets
- Bottled Water
- Illustrated Handouts for the tour - Our handouts are well-researched and sometimes contain surprising information.
- Attractively packaged take-away gift as a memento - just a small thing!
- Drop back at shipLunch is not included. There will be a break in between for lunch, you can ask the guide for restaurant recommendations. Tell the guide what cuisine you want to try and they will take you. If you have dietary restrictions, let them know. We are quite used to dealing with different types of visitors from all corners of the world, and all kinds of dietary issues, including religious requirements, allergies etc. If you are bringing packed lunch from the ship to eat in the vehicle, you still need to provide an hour’s break to the guide and driver, perhaps you can walk through Colaba Causeway or go to a museum. But the food is very interesting and inexpensive and we know all the best places!
Please write to me for more information if you wish. Please book adequately early as we are often sold out on cruise dates.
You pay cash on the day of the tour. You can bring US$ or any other currency and change it in Mumbai.
Kind Regards
