Gone are the days when camping meant dealing with a tent and sleeping bag in the woods. For the modern traveler who wants a piece of nature without sacrificing the comfort of luxury, glamping (glamorous camping) is the perfect blend of both worlds. All over India, stunning glamping resorts have emerged, offering relaxing stays amidst breathtaking natural settings, especially for honeymooning couples who want a mix of adventure and fun.

Bison, Karnataka

Situated on the beautiful banks of the Kabini River, at the confluence of Bandipur and Nagarhole National Parks, what’s not to like about The Bison, it is a luxurious glamping resort that never fails to charm. Its rustic African-style tents offer a beautiful balance of luxury amidst the jungle. With all the facilities, you can go out for spectacular game rides and midnight boat trips or sit on the cozy deck and watch the never-ending forest line as the sun sets. For unparalleled luxury, book The Little Bison, which includes relaxing amenities like personal valet, private bonfires, dinners and everything under the starry sky.

For those who want mountain views and curated luxury, TUTC in Ladakh is the stuff of Instagram dreams.
