Are there any organized tour (with guide) which covers many (if not all) forts near Pune along with Historical significance ?

On the similar lines, are there any guided tours devoted to Shivaji Maharaj/Peshva history.

I dont think there is. Its a little difficult from logistics point of view as forts are not really near to each other. Eg from Panhala to Janjira to Singhgad to Shivneri would be at least a week long tour if not more.

I agree with this. I also wonder how many takers there would be for this kind of tour.

What I have seen more often is the regular trekkers happily take new acquaintances along and offer guidance too. I started that way many years ago :-)

Yes. Also there are books by Babasaheb Purandare for each of the fort. So design your on tour de fort, read those books (around 150 pages each) along the way. And may be you can create some podcasts for people going after you can listen to podcasts while roaming around forts.
