At Tilfi, heritage is a living dialogue. One that is quietly passed down, thoughtfully reinterpreted, and kept alive through experience. In this spirit, we are pleased to partner with Khaki Tours, an organisation dedicated to deepening public engagement with Mumbai’s architectural and cultural legacy.

As part of this collaboration, Tilfi is the sponsor partner for The Ballard Bolt—a curated walking tour that brings to life the layered history of Ballard Estate.

Led by Khaki’s insightful and passionate guides, the 1.5 hour long immersive walk traces the quiet grandeur of this early 20th-century harbour district—where timeless colonnades, stately facades, and thoughtful design give shape to Mumbai’s mercantile and architectural past.

The experience concludes at Tilfi’s Mumbai flagship at Vakils House—a heritage building and now a sanctuary of Banarasi artistry—where guests are welcomed with refreshments and invited to discover Tilfi’s quiet yet audacious vision—of preserving, evolving, and celebrating one of India’s most intricate handloom legacies.

Upcoming walks are now open to the public. Registration for each walk is ticketed and can be completed through Khaki Tours' website. We encourage you to keep an eye out for their monthly schedule of walks, open to all. The inaugural walk of this partnership will take place on June 14th, 2025.

We look forward to welcoming you.
