Be prepared for both warm and cold temperatures. Generally speaking, on our summer tours you can enjoy warm days, but nights can sometimes get cooler. It’s a good idea to pack a warm pair of socks, woolly sweater or hooded jacket, hats, gloves, rain jacket, hiking shoes,  and warm coat. 

Don’t worry! We will take care of pretty much everything-we supply all necessary camping equipment except your sleeping bag. We call it comfort camping or “glamping”. Our spacious two person tents are easy to put up and take down and our experienced tour guides are there to help you every step of the way. If you are a solo traveler, you will be paired with a tent partner of the same gender. Most of the campsites we us are fully equipped with WIFI, laundry, hot showers, some even have outdoor hot tubs and swimming pools.

On 7-21 day tours, helping out on the camp kitchen is a fun way to sample cuisine from all over the world -your tour leader will guide you through chores. Shopping for meals, loading and unloading the trailer, and preparing meals will make you part of the team.

Traveling solo? Take advantage of our no single person supplement policy, many of our clients are traveling solo, you can relax knowing that you will not be charged a penalty for a single person booking on our camping tours. Since you will be traveling with like-minded individuals who share your passion for adventure travel, you will be sure to have new friends and memories to last a lifetime.

On our 7-21 day camping tours in order to help you budget for meals, your tour guide will arrange a food kitty. This generally covers breakfast, sandwich lunch and an evening meal on camping days. It does not cover soft drinks, alcohol or meals at local restaurants when groups decide to sample local cuisine. Naturally, it doesn’t cover meals on hotel stops.

Please limit your luggage to your sleeping bag (7 day tours), a main piece of luggage weighing no more than 20kg (44 lbs) and one piece of hand luggage. If you have more luggage than this, please arrange to leave it at your hotel or store it locally.

Yes! The tents are fully equipted, however, you do need to bring your own sleeping bag. It is also possible to rent a 3 season sleeping bag from the tour operator for $40 pp.
