Khem Villas
Ranthambore National Park, India
Heart of the jungle
The owners Goverdhan and Usha are pillars of the local rural community, having set up the hospital and school and their whole ethos is sustainable tourism. Their 20 acres of grassland, lakes and forest were hand-planted over a decade ago, and have now become a natural habitat for many animals and birds.
The main building provides four bedrooms that are self contained and can be used as individual rooms or can provide the option for a small group to hire the entire portion as a private space to be enjoyed together. All the rooms are air-conditioned spacious with en suite bathrooms. The upstairs... rooms have large bay windows from which you can enjoy the view, along with the multitude of sounds of nature. Just below the Rooms at Khem Villas, and housed within the Main Building are the Library and the adjoining Bar.
Aside from daily forays into Ranthambore Park to track tigers (sadly not guaranteed), Ranthambhore Fort, a hilltop Fort built in 900AD by the Rajput rulers, is also well worth a visit, camel rides to nearby villages can also be arranged whilst birdwatchers will delight in a jeep expedition to Chambal River or Laje Soorwal. There is a pool and spa in camp.

Let us design your perfect itinerary.
The Classic Safari Company is the best I have dealt with. Extremely knowledgeable & professional, friendly, patient & understanding of first timers to Africa.
Annette WhileyIt certainly was the best trip we have EVER had. The experiences were mind blowing. We want everyone we know to experience Africa - the animals, the people - magical.
Jo-anne & Dean MifsudWould do it all again and not change a moment. Best holiday ever!
The McGowan TribeAn absolutely fantastic travel company - every one of the many trips they have organised for us over 22 years have been faultless and fabulous.
Judith & Roger WilliamsThank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.
Jenny KiddExellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.
Elizabeth MackintoshWe wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!
Mark TaylorJulia you did a fantastic job - everything was first class. Well organised, efficient and stress free. We all agreed it was the best holiday we've ever had. Cant wait to travel with CSC again.
