Glamping is the new thing that has caught the fancy of those with feet of wanderers. If you are wondering what the word ‘glamping’ means, it has been derived from the words ‘glamour’ and ‘camping’. And, so we get ‘glamping’ – a glamourous way of enjoying camping!

What Is Glamping?

Glamping is camping with the added flavour of luxury. Unlike traditional camping, glamping is a modern, chic, and glamourous approach! After months of meetings in confined walls, or viva in a claustrophobic place, after delivering all work adhering to deadlines, don’t we all deserve a vacation that pampers us with some luxury? That is when we need to go ‘glamping’ to be amidst nature, with modern facilities intact.
