About Mumbai To Island Tour:
The seven islands of Bombay were 16th century Portuguese territories lying off the west coast of India,
that were handed over to England under this title as part of the dowry of Catherine of Braganza,
married to Charles II in 1661.
The isles had earlier been part of indigenous empires like the Silhara dynasty and the Sultan of Gujarat
before they were captured by the Portuguese in 1534. After acquiring them as dowry, Charles II rented the
islands to the East India Company in 1668 for 10 pounds of gold a year. By 1845, the islands had been
merged[1] into one landmass by means of multiple land reclamation projects. The resulting island of Bombay
was later merged with the nearby islands of Trombay and Salsette that lay to its North-east and North
respectively to form Greater Bombay.
