I belong to Jaipur but haven't really had the chance to explore beyond the usual cursory trips to Nahargadh and Amer... At the heritage water walk Neeraj helped me and my sister see a whole new side to the fort, peeling back slowly and bringing to life how the architects of the city thought about one commodity- water that would make it break a successful settlement. We walked through the old water channels around the fort and connected back with the beautiful stepwells, looking at how the more than three hundred year old water engineering still works pretty well - built to survive man, war and nature's wear and tear. Even though we belong to Rajasthan we had never connected the dots of how much of our culture and traditions revolve around water... all in all this was an incredible experience and a perfect way for me start my Birthday morning. The walk is pretty easy for most fitness levels and is done throughout the day, although we preferred the mounting tour. A must do if you are in Jaipur!!Interesting and informative - this tour opened my eyes to a hitherto unknown aspect of rajasthani life - the significance of water ! This tour was picturesque, the right mix of educational with bonus points for the passion and good humour of Neeraj. Highly recommended.

I have done a lot of heritage walks, but the Nahargarh Water Walk during my stay in Jaipur was undoubtedly one of the most interesting of them all. Peppered with stories and discoveries, Neeraj Doshi revealed a centuries old world of impeccable rain water harvesting which still functioned flawlessly to date. His passion and commitment to the topic made every minute of the walk through the forest, water catchment areas, channels and stepwells a feast to both the mind and the explorer in me. If there is one walk one should do when in Jaipur, it ought to be this one. It's an absolute gem!
