The phrases "glamorous" and "camping" are combined to form the relatively new term "glamping." It alludes to a kind of opulent camping where guests can take in the great outdoors in luxury and comfort.

Glamping is not comparable to staying at a posh resort or renting a penthouse, though. Glamping successfully strikes the ideal balance between luxury and the great outdoors. There are glamping locations all over the world, and glamping accommodations can range from gorgeous canvas tents to enormous treehouses and more! 

Here is all the information you require regarding this fashionable camping craze.

 

Difference Between Glamping and Camping

What distinguishes glamping from traditional camping? The distinction can be summed up as luxuriousness. Glamping offers luxurious lodgings and conveniences that are uncommon in traditional camping. This can include anything from running water and full restrooms to electricity. Contrarily, camping is a more primitive activity where you often rough it in a tent or out under the stars.

 

What to pack for glamping?

You should either pack the bare minimum or a more comprehensive set of gear and essentials, depending on where you plan to travel. Glampers are advised to "bring all your own food, cooking supplies, and sleeping bags," according to several websites. Other glamping locations will supply everything you need, except for hiking boots, beach suits, and amenities. Always check with the campground before making a reservation so you are aware of what to expect.

Here is your Complete Glamping Checklist-

Survival items 

  • Backpack or Bag
  • Sleeping essentials (sleeping bags, air mattresses, pillows, sheets, and blankets)
  • First aid kit
  • Flashlights with extra batteries

 

Personal items 

  • Clothes- You’ll need clothes for your trip, but exactly which clothes will depend on your level of glam. If you’re planning on lounging all day, enjoying the sun and the fresh air, then you probably don’t need to bring too much.
    But if you plan to do some hiking or other more vigorous activities, then you should bring more durable shoes and extra socks. Remember to pack for all types of weather, so bring rain gear just in case. And lots of layers for those hot days and cool nights. Never forget your swimsuit!
  • Towels- Bring a couple of towels, one for after a shower and one for after swimming.
  • Insect repellent- When you’re glamping, you don’t want to deal with any annoying pests. Your insect repellent can be in the form of bug spray, bug-repellent candles, or even a mosquito net.
  • Sunscreen
  • Shampoo and Soap
  • Toiletries
  • Cosmetics
  • Brush or comb
  • Extra eyeglasses or contact lenses
  • Medications

 

Cooking items

Look around your glamping site first to see what's accessible to you before proceeding with this list. Next, you should make a plan for your entire trip's meals. That will enable you to determine precisely which cooking supplies you require, preventing you from overpacking. You may definitely omit a lot from this list because there are many more amenities available at glamping sites.

  • Water and water bottles
  • Ingredients for your meals
  • Mess Kit (plates, bowls, mugs, spoons and utensils)
  • Tablecloth
  • Camp stove/grill and fuel
  • Pots and frying pans
  • Oven mitt, cutting board
  • Aluminium foil
  • Dishwasher, Sponge/Dishcloth
  • Paper towels
  • Garbage Bags

 

Fun items 

  • Books/magazines
  • Camera and charger
  • Cards or other boards games
  • Musical instruments

 

If you have electricity-

  • Phone charger
  • Fan heater (in case it gets cold)
  • Kettle
  • Hair dryer
  • Coffee maker
  • Extension cord
