Cox & Kings, an international travel company established in 1758 – making it one of the longest-running in the world – calls glamping one of the big travel trends for 2018. And we are of the opinion that fall is one of the best times to jump on this worldwide trend. For those who want to be close to nature but don’t want to give up their modern creature comforts, these destinations offer an ideal balance of rustic and cozy.
