The Dhobhi Ghat and Train Travel Experience

Known as the worlds’ largest outdoor laundry, Dhobi Ghat is where Mumbai's traditional dhobhis (washermen) wash dirty laundry and return it neatly pressed - all for a very small fee. Dhobhi Ghat came into existence in 1890. Here 731 dhobhis and their families work together to keep their ancestral heritage alive. It is said that the dhobhis wash 1500 articles of clothes everyday and iron 750 clothes a day. Dhobhi Ghat is unique only to Mumbai. Our personalized tours inside the dhobhi Ghat aim to give people a better understanding of dhobhis, their work and their lives.
