Mumbai Spice Markets and Bazaars Tour with Guide and Transport
Criss-crossing narrow lanes, tiny shops spilling with colourful wares, people haggling for a better deal - welcome to the bazaars of India. You can find them everywhere, even juxtaposed against high rises and glitzy malls. The bursting metropolis of Mumbai has many such gems hidden in its folds. Care to try the fiery tears-in-the-eyes signature Indian spice mixes? We begin this tour of Mumbai from the Lalbagh spice market, which is home to an authentic mix of spices which the pickiest grandma would approve.
This offbeat tour of Mumbai would be incomplete without a visit to the once a well-kept secret and reserved only for the adventurous, the notorious Chor Bazaar. Up until recently, this 150 year old Bazaar lived up to its borrowed name, by housing various smuggled goods. For the collector there is aplenty – Furniture from the Raj, rare electronics like vintage gramophones, out-of-print LPs, hand-made film posters time – It’s not uncommon to find a genuine antique here.

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Chor Bazaar, Mohammed Ali Rd Pydhonie, Mumbai India
Chor Bazaar’s literal translation is the Thieves Market, although, it was born on the premise of ‘Shor’ Bazaar, which meant a noisy market. It was named so, because it was used to house mechanics and their repair garages.
