I used to be studying the opposite day, and the phrase Glamping caught my consideration. This is not your common “seize the sleeping bag, let’s prepare dinner over an open fireplace” type of tenting. No, that is tenting with fashion. Higher but, that is tenting with a toilet.

However, as I considered it, Glamping is likely to be a brand new trendy buzz-word, the idea is not a brand new one. Africa has had Luxurious Tented Camps for years, providing you an actual up-close-and-personal view of the Darkish Continent.

Locations just like the Serengeti Migration Camp, open yr spherical, providing elevated safari tents in Tanzania with en-suite showers (with scorching water, no much less), and electrical energy to fireside up your Ipad, Iphones, and laptop computer. No skinny sleeping bag on the ground right here, King-size beds await. And after a day of sport viewing, go for a dip within the pool.

On the opposite aspect of Africa you will discover a luxurious tent camp in Morocco, simply 50km from Fes to Marrakech 3 days tour. The desert is not precisely probably the most forgiving place, however all that’s forgotten on the Scarabeo Camp. No worries about wild desert animals or something, you are neatly tucked right into a tent that may take advantage of luxurious lodges jealous. Queen beds are higher to sleep on than sand, non-public en-suite bogs; and scrumptious Moroccan meals is served up every day.

With tenting like this, you will by no means “tough it” once more.

Probably the most stunning locations to expertise a luxurious camp is the Thornybush within the Kruger Nationwide Park, sweetly embellished in a Colonial fashion. The Bushveld Baths (within the non-public en-suite bogs) overlook the African panorama, and even embody air-conditioning.

And I’d by no means have thought that tents may earn a spot on the Small Main Inns Of The World checklist. Larsens Camp within the Samburu Nationwide Reserve does, with its safari-style (applicable, sure?) lodging, king-size beds, and en-suite bogs.

The one factor lacking is a tv, however if you’ve bought elephants and different unique animals mere toes out of your dinner desk, who wants the telly?

South Africa is massive on the entire luxurious tenting factor. Household pleasant (and eco-friendly too) locations just like the Teniqua Treetops affords luxurious tenting excessive above the African flooring. It is a self-catered possibility (however actually, what a part of true tenting is not) however sitting on the porch overlooking the gorge is simply the setting for family-time. Some treehouses sleep solely two, some 4, however there are greater ones out there for bigger households.

So, the query of what does luxurious tenting (or, Glamping for those who’re so inclined) imply? Consolation, and that is all that issues.
