11 days in Mumbai Itinerary

Only one word accurately describes India's commercial capital Mumbai: big.

Step off the beaten path and head to Karnala Bird Sanctuary and Aarey Colony. Get in touch with nature at Kanheri Caves and Versoli Beach. Change things up with these side-trips from Mumbai: Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary (in Vasai), Alibaug (Rewas Jetty, Akshi Beach, &more) and Kali Bari Thane (in Thane). And it doesn't end there: take in the architecture and atmosphere at Mount Mary Basilica, get outside with Marine Drive, don't miss a visit to Elephanta Caves, and take in the spiritual surroundings of Wesley Church.
