In this unique experience, we’ll explore Mumbai’s local culture by visiting the city’s oldest tribe, the fishermen. Once a group of seven islands, fishing was the main occupation here. We’ll meet at a designated point and take a tuk-tuk ride to the fishermen’s village, where you’ll discover a historic festive ground linked to British history.
We’ll visit a local beach to see the fishermen’s boats, observe how they weave their nets, and stroll through the bustling fishermen’s docks. Next, we’ll wander through the lively fish market, where you’ll encounter vibrant women in colourful sarees selling fresh catches. This lively atmosphere and personal interactions with locals are experiences you won’t find on your own.
Finally, we’ll head to a local home for a hands-on cooking session, where you’ll prepare traditional fish delicacies unique to Mumbai. You’ll learn to make fish curry, chicken dishes, local fisherman’s bread, and a sour-spicy drink. This exclusive opportunity to engage with the fishing community and learn culinary skills provides a memorable insight into Mumbai’s rich heritage that’s simply not available to the average visitor.
