Relocating to Mumbai / Navi Mumbai

Gene · #1 (**permalink**) 8th March 2008, 10:43 PM

Hi, everyone,

I am about to leave for the airport in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia headed for Mumbai. It's my 1st time there and I am travelling with my 6 year old daughter. We are staying at the JW Marriott at Juhu Beach. Could anyone give me any advice about where to bargain shop and sightsee? I can be reached on my India mobile at: +919952990594 after 9pm India time today. Please, please help I only have 2 days there and would like to make the most of it but am not sure of local transport etc. Would love to meet up with any Indus ladies for a cuppa and a chat if possible. This was a last minute trip (planned yesterday) so I had no time to do any research on Mumbai.

By the way, if anyone is visiting Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, you can cotact me on my malaysia mobile +6 016 3764674 and I will be glad to show you around or help out if you are newly relocated to Kuala Lumpur.

Thank you.

Cheers,
Gene

Thank you
