In this blog post, we will discuss everything you need to know before heading out to the great outdoors on your next glamping trip – from what kind of equipment you’ll need to how best to pack for your adventure. We even have a glamping printable to help you plan your perfect trip!
What is glamping?
Glamping is short for “glamorous camping.” It’s a way to have the best of both worlds: explore nature while still feeling like you’re home. Imagine waking up in your luxury tent, hiking through beautiful scenery and then returning back to it at night. Glamping can happen anywhere – from tents on beaches or riverbanks to yurts in forests!
Glamping vs. camping
A camper will be happy with sleeping on the ground without any luxuries whatsoever – while a “glampers,” by comparison, would expect an air mattress at the very least!
Glamping is different from traditional camping in that it’s a more luxurious experience. Often, glampsites will include amenities like fire pits, heated tents and even butlers to help you get settled!
Glamps are always prepared for everything because they know what it takes to create this experience of being out in nature but still feeling like home.
What does glamping mean?
The word “glamp” comes from glamorous campers who would set up their sites with all sorts of amenities that are usually found indoors such as beds, couches and rugs. The world of glamping includes everything from staying in a gorgeous cabin to the perfect glamping tent.
How to pick a glamping tent
If you’re interested in keeping your experience having all of the comforts while still being close with nature, you’ll want a tent that serves your needs. But what should you look for?
Before choosing your tent, think about where you want to go glamping and how much space you need for the items you want to have on hand. Most glamping trips include air mattresses, so take that into consideration as well.
