Why Glamping is the Best Way to Travel Green

Eco-minded, green travel focuses on conservation and sustainability with education and social consciousness as a backdrop. As a result, glamping is the perfect way to travel green.

Green Glamping

Being green doesn’t have to mean giving up luxury. Many properties and destinations offer all the luxuries you want, while still being mindful and respectful of nature and their communities.

As a traveler, adopt sustainable practices such as using cloth bags, reducing single use plastic, eating locally grown food, and using your trip to learn about the local flora and fauna.
