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 \u2018unique side\u2019 of the desert state.<\/p>\n

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 \u201cWater\u201d. 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.<\/p>\n

Rajasthan is a \u2018water civilization in the Desert\u2019 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.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.14.5″ custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”20px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.5″ text_font=”|500|||||||” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_fold=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”]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.<\/p>\n

Our unique storytelling format: From the start, we were very clear that we don\u2019t 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.<\/p>\n

We invite you to experience the \u201cReal Rajasthan\u201d with us in all its colours.<\/p>\n
