Start your Sunday late-morning exploration with a relaxed stroll along Marine Drive, soaking in the sweeping bay views and breezy atmosphere, then continue to the elegant Art Deco buildings on Churchgate Esplanade for a quick architectural photo walk. Pause for a hearty brunch at the classic café near Oberoi Trident or a nearby Irani café, sampling keema pav or bun maska with chai before heading toward the stately Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (Prince of Wales Museum) to browse its eclectic collection and orient yourself to Mumbai's rich history.
After a relaxed morning, head into the bustling heart of South Mumbai to explore Kala Ghoda, where independent galleries and street art invite a slow wander, then drop into the intimate Jehangir Art Gallery for contemporary Indian works. Continue with a leisurely walk through the historic Fort district to browse heritage bookstores and stop for a late-afternoon chai and snacks at the iconic Leopold Cafe, soaking in lively sidewalk scenes before preparing for an evening by the waterfront.
As the sun dips, make your way to the lively promenades of Colaba Causeway for some evening street shopping and people-watching, then wander down to the atmospheric Gateway of India to watch boats bobbing in the twilight and catch the sea breeze. Finish with a relaxed seafood dinner at the classic waterfront Bademiya (or a quieter table at The Table, if you prefer contemporary dining), sipping a cold drink as the city lights come alive and reflecting on the day's discoveries.
