After breakfast, begin your exciting day of sightseeing in
Mumbai with a visit to the Elephanta Caves, a World Heritage site located on Elephanta Island,
just a short ferry ride from the city. These ancient
rock-cut caves, dating back to the 5th to 8th
centuries, are famous for their intricate sculptures and
carvings, particularly the impressive Trimurti of Lord
Shiva. After returning from Elephanta, head to the
Gateway of India, Mumbai's iconic landmark, which
was built in honor of King George V's visit to India in
1911. From here, you can also take in the view of the
Arabian Sea. Next, visit the Prince of Wales Museum
(now known as the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu
Sangrahalaya), a fascinating museum showcasing
Indian history, art, and culture. After immersing
yourself in the heritage, proceed to Nariman Point, a
bustling commercial district that offers a scenic view
of the Marine Drive promenade and the vast ocean
beyond. Finally, take a leisurely stroll along Marine
Lines, a lively and vibrant area with a beautiful
seafront, where you can enjoy the cool sea breeze and
capture the beauty of the iconic Mumbai skyline.
