The Best value-for-money Malaysia Glamping Destinations to Visit
Glamping is a relatively new term in Malaysia. It is a combination of two words – glamour and camping, where glamour stands for comfort and luxury, and camping stands for outdoor life with minimal amenities. The glamping experience relies on the customer’s perception of adventure, exploration, and discovery. So if you want to experience true wilderness with all the comforts of home then this is one way to do it!
There are various standards for Glamping based on the level of luxury you are after. Generally, the higher the standard, the more expensive it is.
