About Us

 

 

Heritage Water Walks is a passion project designed to showcase the rich cultural heritage of Rajasthan to curious visitors. Being a living desert, it has the most distinctive culture and unique traditions, which remain undiscovered. Through Heritage Water Walks, it is our earnest attempt to present this ‘unique side’ of the desert state.

One wonders, how did this barren dead place evolve into a thriving and beautiful culture visited by millions every year? The single word answer is “Water”. This transformation, which is nothing short of a miracle, happened due to our unique relationship with water. We celebrate water in every aspect of our lives, be it our beliefs & traditions, food, language, art, and architecture, music, or dance. In essence, water is our collective cultural repository.

Rajasthan is a ‘water civilization in the Desert’ and we want to tell beautiful stories from this place which will keep you riveted for the two hours that you will spend with us. Our walking tours are multi-layered just like the place. We cover a vast range of themes from history, architecture & engineering, local traditions & beliefs, politics, intrigue, etc.

We chart our path: Our carefully curated tours are the outcome of extensive research & fact-checking and are updated at regular intervals. We have not followed any standard format while developing our walking tours. Rather, we have created our format based on what we find the most authentic aspect of Rajasthani culture.

Our unique storytelling format: From the start, we were very clear that we don’t want to overwhelm our guests with Information overload. Nor, we wanted them to get bored. We knew that when information is presented as a story it becomes fun and is most likely to endure. To that end, all our tours are structured around a well-defined storyline with a logical beginning, middle, and end to ensure you have the most memorable experience with us.

We invite you to experience the “Real Rajasthan” with us in all its colours.

Our tours sites:
1) Amber Palace
2) Nahargarh Fort
