Maharashtra: Hidden Bungalows of Bandra With Transfers

  • Mumbai
  • • Walking Experience
  • • Duration 3 hour

Description

Discover the lesser-seen architectural heritage of Bandra through a guided walking tour of its historic bungalow neighbourhoods, village lanes and surviving heritage residences.

The walk focuses on Ranwar, Pali Village, Perry Road, St Andrew's Road and surrounding heritage streets, introducing guests to old East Indian, colonial and vernacular bungalow architecture, traditional lanes, shrines and the changing character of Bandra.

Bandra's heritage inventory documents several surviving bungalow examples, including Rose Villa, Ebrahim Manzil, K Lodge, Boccaro House and Busheri Bungalow, while Ranwar remains known for its historic village character and vintage houses.

Because many of these properties are privately owned, the experience is an exterior architectural and storytelling walk; guests should not enter private compounds without permission.

Meeting Instructions:

Guests should report 30 minutes before the scheduled activity at the designated meeting point.
