Find out about Mumbai's Jewish Heritage - with private transport and guide

Jews have always been an integral part of Mumbai’s cultural and population

make-up. The city’s Jews mainly comprised of two very distinct groups, the Bene Israel and the Baghdadi. The Bene Israel (Sons of Israel) trace their history in Mumbai over 1600 years ago. The Baghdadi Jews on the other hand settled in the city in the 1800’s as traders.

Once settled, these two groups strived for the betterment of the community

and created architectural masterpieces that are now an integral part of

Mumbai’s Jewish history.

This tour pays homage to the Jewish heritage in Mumbai and includes a visit to two beautiful synagogues, the docks, Jewish Library, and the Mumbai’s first and most celebrated Museum called Bhaudaji Lad, all built with donations by the Sassoon Family. This tour ends with a visit to the Jewish cemetery

that has the Sassoon family graves and finally the Chabad House (based on

availability) - the same that was attacked during the infamous terrorist siege of

Mumbai.
