  1. Day 1: Arrive, settle near the right base

    Track Mumbai costs by stay, food, local transport, bars and clubs, optional extras and buffer.

  2. Day 2: Slow final morning and return

    Start 09:30

    Keep the final day in Mumbai flexible for one nearby stop, packing, pending payments and return transfers. Close shared expenses before the group splits.
