Skip restaurants on the main Colaba strip, walk two blocks inland for real local thalis and much better prices, bring small cash notes.
Colonial buildings and the sea breeze are lovely, crowds and horns wear you down though. Take afternoon breaks and hydrate.
Two weeks let me explore suburbs and local trains, budget-friendly once you avoid tourist traps, not a polished city but very alive.
Stifling humidity in April made midday walks brutal, but rooftop dinners and fresh seafood more than made up for it.
Crazy energy and nonstop street food, locals were warm but the traffic is intense. Four days felt perfect to get a good taste.
