Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

One of Mumbai's most recognizable attractions, the triple-arched Gateway of India was built during the early 20th century in honor of the 1911 visit of King George V. Built of basalt and concrete, this monument was designed in the Indo-Saracenic style, which blends traditional Indian, Victorian, and Mughal architectural elements.

Stop 2

This is the best place to get a bird’s eye view of Marine Drive which is also known as Queen’s Necklace. From Nariman Point at one end to Raj Bhavan at the other and the beautiful sunset in the horizon, this is one photo stop that you should not miss

Stop 3

One of the top spots to watch the sunset in Mumbai, Chowpatty Beach is a busy expanse of sand and sea that's fun to visit, day or night. People watching is one of the main draws here, because this beach attracts Mumbai residents from all walks of life, from multigenerational families to canoodling couples.
