What people love about Camping Tours
- Timeless Egypt & Jordan
Excellent! I was a solo female traveler and everything went very well. Before the trip all my emails were answered very quickly and once there they picked me up at the airport and everything was under control and ready for the group. Our guide was very experienced and friendly and they were very flexible and accommodating. Very professional and helpful.
An amazing trip with our guide Anouar!!! Booked it with short notice prior to the tour start and and during insanely busy dates but still, accommodation was stunning both nights, nicely equipped for cold winter nights and food during the trip was really nice! As said, it was high season and yet, somehow, Anouar managed to avoid rush hours for other tourism buses and minivans at most places so it was not as crowded. But more importantly, everyone we met, from Anouar to the personnel working at our desert camp (Tizziri), was passionate about sharing their love for their country, their culture.. Never felt like a “tourist trap” where someone performs an expected cultural ritual, but more like a group of friends inviting you over to their house. For that, we’re extremely grateful. We will definitely come back!
3 Days Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech
- From Fes to Marrakesh Desert experience ( Luxury Accommodations )
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Morocco with our wonderful tour guide Said. We experienced an insight into the Berber culture and the unique arid Moroccan landscape, which was topped off by a brilliant camel trek in the western sahara. A special mention must go to our Camel Guid Zayd who is an absolute good man! Our trip started in Fez and ended in Marrakech....Said took us to many attractions and made sure we got the best panoramic shots! Even when we were fast asleep they made sure we wouldn't miss important sites along the trip. The desert experience was amazing- not to be missed! overall I would totally recommend Said and Cultural morocco tours ! Thanks
What our customers ask about Camping Tours & Trips
What are the typical sleeping arrangements on camping tours?
You'll sleep in two-person tents at established campgrounds. These sites have basic facilities like showers and toilets. If you're camping at Lucky Bay in Cape Le Grand National Park, for example, you'll get amazing beach views right from your tent. Some tours, like the Salkantay Trek in Peru, mix it up with both camping and hotel stays. One traveler told us: "Camping in the Serengeti was magical - falling asleep to lion roars and waking up to zebras outside the tent."
What locations offer the best camping experiences?
You'll find incredible camping spots in Africa's national parks, where you can wake up to wildlife in the Serengeti or Kruger. The Andes Mountains in Peru are perfect if you want to combine camping with hiking adventures. Australia's coastal areas, like Cape Le Grand, let you camp right by the beach. One happy camper shared: "The beachfront campsites along Australia's coast offered incredible sunrise views."
What weather conditions should I prepare for on camping tours?
The weather really depends on where and when you go. In the Serengeti, days can be hot at 86°F (30°C), but nights cool down to 50°F (10°C). If you're camping in the Andes, expect temperatures from 23°F to 68°F (-5°C to 20°C) and some rain. A recent traveler advised: "Bring layers and waterproof gear - mountain weather can change quickly."
What level of physical fitness do I need for a camping tour?
You'll need average to good fitness since you'll be hiking, setting up camp, and moving around on uneven ground. For example, if you're doing the Salkantay Trek, you'll hike at heights up to 15,190 feet (4,630m). Most trips involve walking 4-6 hours daily with a small backpack. Most travelers say the activities are challenging but doable if you're reasonably fit.
What kind of meals are provided during camping tours?
You'll get three meals a day, cooked by camp chefs who know how to make great food outdoors. On tours like the Botswana and Falls Overland, you get 7 breakfasts, 6 lunches, and 3 dinners included. The food often gets top marks from travelers - they're always surprised by how good the meals are, even in remote camps. If you need vegetarian, vegan, or halal food, just let them know when you book.
What's the best season for camping tours?
It really depends on where you're going. Want to camp in the Canadian Rockies? Go between June and September when it's warm and the days are long. For African safari camping, pick the dry season from June to October - you'll see more animals. Check the typical weather patterns for your specific destination before you book.
How many people are usually in a camping tour group?
Most groups have between 8 and 20 people - enough to make friends but not so many that it feels crowded. G Adventures keeps their groups to 22 people max, while hiking tours like the Salkantay Trek usually have 8-12 people. One traveler mentioned: "The small group size of 12 people was perfect for bonding and sharing the camping experience."
