Expect a significant change in pace and environment when travelling from the comparatively laid-back Bhubaneswar.

Best time to fly

The best time to visit Mumbai is during the winter months, from November to February, when the weather is pleasant and cool. The Ganesh Chaturthi festival in August/September is a major event in Mumbai, but expect large crowds and higher prices during this time. Avoid the monsoon season from June to September due to heavy rainfall.

Getting from the airport to Mumbai

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) offers several options to reach the city. The Mumbai Metro is a fast and affordable option, costing around ₹60 to reach some parts of the city. Taxis and app-based cabs are readily available, with fares ranging from ₹400 to ₹800 depending on the distance.

Things to do in Mumbai

Visit the Gateway of India, an iconic arch monument overlooking the Arabian Sea. Explore the Elephanta Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with ancient rock-cut temples. Take a stroll along Marine Drive, a scenic promenade perfect for evening walks. Experience the vibrant street life and shopping at Colaba Causeway.

Food to try

Try Vada Pav, a popular street food consisting of a potato fritter in a bun. Sample Pav Bhaji, a spicy vegetable curry served with bread rolls. Indulge in seafood delicacies like Bombay Duck at restaurants near the coast.

Local tips

Be prepared for crowded public transport, especially during peak hours. Bargaining is common in local markets and with auto-rickshaw drivers. Always carry small change for transactions.
