問題詳情

    The idea of roughing it during a camping trip might sound appealing if it weren't for the bugs, wild animals,sudden storms, leaking tents, smelly sleeping bags and questionable food. For a number of people, their firstcamping experience often becomes their last, but there is now a camping option growing in popularity. Welcometo the world of glamorous camping, otherwise known as glamping. Organized glamping trips feature all of theexposure to the great outdoors as traditional camping trips, but the amenities found at the campsite far exceedanything most campers have ever experienced.    During a typical glamping trip, for example, the tents are often designed with bright designer colors and materials, not the olive drab canvas tents of yesteryear. These tents can be rigged for electrical power, whichmeans occupants can operate appliances, reading lamps and climate controls. Forget about smelly sleeping bagsplaced on rocky or insect-infested ground as well. Those who have gone glamping may sleep on full-size airmattresses, or even regular spring mattresses provided by the outfitters.    Many glamping trips do involve the same types of excursions provided by traditional adventure groups, suchas safaris, hiking, and river rafting, but the focus is often on the comfort of the guests. Comfortable transportationis usually provided from the campsite to the excursion and back, and guides are responsible for providing suchamenities as full-course meals and laundered clothing upon a guest's return to camp. Some glamping trips aremore primitive than others, however, so guests may actually have to experience a little discomfort whileglamping     The idea of glamping appears to have been inspired by the experiences of young, rich entertainers and models atoutdoor events such as open air rock concerts. Many wealthy concertgoers wondered aloud if it might be possibleto avoid the trappings of a hot tent on a muddy field just to enjoy a show or the wonders of nature. Severaladventure groups saw an opportunity to cater to the needs of disillusioned campers who wanted to experience thepositive aspects of camping without so many negatives. Thus the concept of glamping was born.     Many companies who specialize in camping equipment and supplies have created high-end or designer gearover the years, but few campers wanted to be seen carrying brightly colored tents or packets of gourmet foods.With the growing popularity of glamping, however, many would-be campers are now buying up designercamping gear and other amenities before going on their own glamping trips. Even those on more modest budgetsare discovering it is now acceptable to bring along a few more comfort items while camping outdoors. Whileglamping may still be a niche market, it does offer people the chance to experience all of nature, not just itsinsects and bad weather
