Camping may not be the best option for you or your team, but Glamping might be the right choice to connect both with nature and those who you take with you on the experience. The growth in the Glamping market is taking the world by storm. Enjoy all the perks of camping and being outdoors with none of the work and all of the amenities. Glamping is ideal for both family trips and corporate retreats.
“Glamping” or glamourous camping has become a trend starting in 2007 with the rise of music festivals and attendees wanting more creature comforts and higher service.
There are so many choices when it comes to how you want to glamp. This includes Yurts, Bells, Lodges, Tepees and Pods.
After COVID, glamping is the perfect way to take your team or your family out of the city for a couple of days. There will be minimal to no set up involved in your travel and you ccan get rid of all of the stress that comes with camping.
Most Glamping sites have a major focus on sustainability and making the stay as eco-friendly as possible.
