Kipling Camp’s motto is "treading softly in the jungle" and the camp has a strong focus on local community and wildlife, offering guests a unique experience in the wilds of Kanha Tiger Reserve.
Accommodation is in 15 cottages – each with its own verandah, and set amidst unspoiled jungle. If you are lucky you might glimpse a mottled wood owl or a giant flying squirrel in the forest. There is also a private cottage, which has a bedroom, sitting room and a patio overlooking the camp’s waterhole. Food is a range of western and Indian cuisine, served at a number of locations around the camp and produced by Kipling’s three experienced chefs.
There are plenty of places to sit and relax around the camp, including the well-stocked library, and trained masseuses are on hand to provide Ayurvedic massages.
India is an ideal destination for families. Who hasn’t read The Jungle Book and not dreamed about coming across a tiger in its luxuriant jungle? Imagine seeing a sloth bear, bathing with an elephant, or canoeing down a jungle river? And, for a grand finale there’s the majestic, unsurpassable Taj Mahal.
Kanha National Park offers some of India’s finest tiger viewing. The setting for Rudyard Kipling’s ‘The Jungle Book, the undulating grassland and deciduous forest also supports a further 22 species of mammal and its waterholes create tranquil spots for bird watching in the surrounding jungle.
