3.The UNESCO Connection - Why This Heritage Walk Matters Globally
UNESCO is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation. It works to find and protect important places, buildings, and land. These sites are special to all people, not just to one group. If a place gets UNESCO World Heritage status, people around the globe agree it is worth keeping safe, learning about, and saving for years to come.
In 2018, the Victorian Gothic and Art Deco buildings in Mumbai became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This put them on the same list as other world-famous spots like the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall of China, and the old city areas of Rome and Paris. This was a big moment for Mumbai. The Bombay city’s buildings finally got the worldwide attention they deserved.
4.Why Every Traveller Must Walk South Mumbai Once
South Mumbai is more than just a place. It is where the city of Bombay started. All the big groups that made this city what it is today began here. The courts, the universities, the railways, the port, and the money markets were first set up in South Mumbai.
South Mumbai is a special part of the city for people from other countries. This is the area you read about in Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. A lot of people have read that book all over the world. Roberts lived in Colaba. He spent time in the streets that you will see on this tour. He wrote about South Mumbai as a place where beauty and chaos mix. It seems like the city is made to feel that way. Many people read Shantaram and then come to Mumbai to find the city in the story. This walk helps you see the same places.
South Mumbai is where the history of the Gateway of India starts and ends. It is the arch where empires first came in and also where they finally left. The first luxury hotel in India was built here. It was not made by a British colonist but by an Indian industrialist who would not let others say that he could not build in his own city. In this part of Mumbai, Gothic churches stand near Art Deco cinemas. There are 200-year-old libraries right next to busy courtrooms. Every lane in South Mumbai has history under it, but most people who visit do not get to see what is really there.
Many people walk by Flora Fountain and the Rajabai Clock Tower in South Mumbai, but do not stop to see them. The Flora Fountain Mumbai walk takes you to a cast-iron fountain, which came from England in 1869. It stands right in the middle of the city's old British streets. The Rajabai Clock Tower walk brings you to a tall tower, 85 metres high, inside Mumbai University. It is on the UNESCO list, was made to look like Big Ben, built in 1878. Most guided tours do not share the full story of these sites, but on this walk, they do.
If you go to Mumbai and do not walk around old South Mumbai the right way, you will only see the top of the city. There is so much more to Mumbai, and it goes deep beyond what you find at first.
5.Our Other Mumbai Experiences
Besides the Mumbai heritage walk, there are more ways to see the city that most people do not get to. The Dharavi Slum Tour lets you go inside one of Asia's biggest city slums. Nearly a million people live here and have made a home full of work, art and trade in just 432 acres at the centre of Mumbai.
The Mumbai City Tour lets you see more parts of the city. You get to see the main neighbourhoods and famous places.
The Dabbawala Tour takes you inside the world-famous lunchbox delivery network that Harvard Business School once studied for its extraordinary precision.

What’s the best time to book the Mumbai Heritage Walk Tour?
The best time to do this Bombay heritage walk is between October and March, when the weather in South Mumbai is cool, dry and comfortable for walking.

Why booking with Cityscape Mumbai Tours?
What Will I See on the Mumbai Heritage Walk?
This Bombay heritage walk lets you see the old streets of Bombay. You do not feel like a tourist here. You get to know what the city is made of and why it still stands today.
Gateway of India
This grand structure was built in 1924. It uses the Indo-Saracenic style. This place is where the Gateway of India history starts and ends. When you stand here, our guide will talk about the morning in 1948. That was when the last British group left India by going through this arch. Most people stop, take a quick photo, and then leave. On this walk, you will get to know what you are really standing in front of.
Taj Mahal Palace Hotel
This hotel was built in 1903 by Jamsetji Tata. It was the first luxury hotel in India. It was also a clear sign of Indian pride against the colonial way of thinking. The hotel sits across from the Gateway of India. There is a story in this place that many people pass by every day, but most do not know it fully.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus
This place is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was finished in 1887. It was built in the Victorian Gothic style. People still use it every day. There are millions of people who come here to travel. When you go on this Victorian Gothic tour, our guide will show you around. The guide will point out all the small things that make this building special. You will see why it is one of the best Gothic buildings you can find in Asia.
Rajabai Clock Tower
Finished in 1878, this tower is 85 metres tall and can be found inside the Mumbai University campus. It has the status of a UNESCO site. Its design was inspired by Big Ben in London. The Rajabai Clock Tower walk lets you get close to the tower, which most people who come to Mumbai do not really take time to see or know fully.
Oval Maidan
This open field is one of the rare places in a city, in the world. On one side, you can see big buildings in Victorian Gothic style. On the other hand, there are Art Deco buildings. They both look at each other across the grass. There is no other place on Earth where you can stand in one spot and see both these famous types of buildings at the same time in our tour
Flora Fountain
The Flora Fountain in Mumbai is made of iron and was brought in from England. It was built in 1869. The fountain gets its name from Flora, who is the Roman goddess of flowers. You can see it now at Hutatma Chowk. This place was renamed to honour the people who died for the Maharashtra movement. Our guide will share both of these stories with you when you visit this spot.
Asiatic Society Library
This library was started in 1804 and is one of the oldest in Asia. Inside, you will find rare books, old maps, coins, and artefacts. Most people do not get to see these things up close. A walk through this library during the Mumbai heritage walk shows how much history and knowledge there is in this city.
Kala Ghoda
Kala Ghoda sits at the south end of Mumbai’s arts district. There was a black horse statue here, which gave this place its name. You see old buildings along with new art and music in this area. It is a great spot to finish a walk in what was once called old Bombay
