The term “glamping” itself originated in the late 19th century as a portmanteau of the words ‘glamorous’ and “camping.”
Camping has always been an appealing option for adventurers who want to discover the natural beauty of our country. But… what about those who wanted to share that experience with others who preferred more comfort—such as having a bathroom—and leave their days as Boy Scouts behind?
This is where the concept of glamping comes from—a way to explore nature’s riches while enjoying the comforts, and sometimes even the luxuries, that we often find hard to give up.
These days, it’s more than just a trend—it’s become one of the most romantic experiences couples seek, as a way to break out of their routine and escape the city to share a unique moment of connection and love under the stars and the moon.
Because glamping is all about camping outdoors, surrounded by luxury, while still enjoying the freedom of being immersed in the forest.
