About this experience

Explore the historic community of Mumbai’s earliest settlers. Worli was one of the seven islands that became the city, and Worli Koliwada has been a fishing village on the Arabian Sea for some 800 years.

Between towering skyscrapers and the downtown bustle, the narrow lanes keep the culture and traditions of Mumbai’s original fishermen, the Koli. Walk with us and see how the city’s oldest roots live on inside its newest skyline.
