1. Glamping
The word 'glamping' is the amalgamation of 'glamorous' and 'camping'. It is camping in relative wilderness minus the bathe-in-the-river and business-in-the-bushes routines. Glamping is soaking in breathtaking natural views and vistas with modern bathroom facilities and five-star hospitality.
Most glamping sites are located off main roads, some even in remote locations. The route may be treacherous due to weather conditions. With New Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, drivers can tackle such conditions with ease. Its Super Select 4WD II featuring 2H (2WD High-Range), 4H (4WD High-Range) working like full-time all wheel control, 4HLc (4WD High-Range with Locked Transfer) and 4LLc (4WD Low-Range with Locked Transfer) is more than capable, complete with 4 off-road modes that include Gravel, Mud/Snow, Sand and Rock, and rear-differential locks. Plus, you arrive at the glamp-site in more unique style.
Glamping venues abound in Thailand. Notable ones are located by the river in Kanchanaburi, and Tented Resorts in Khao Yai, Nakhon Ratchasima. Activities at these venues include visits to local cultural villages, cave explorations, trekking and an opportunity to be close to nature and the environment in luxury.
