Back to basics: 7 camping experiences around the world

Spend eight nights camping under the stars as you hike through Canada's legendary Rocky Mountains. Camping enthusiasts will enjoy five nights at beautiful campsites and three nights at a simple lodge.

Explore the country's most expansive wilderness at Canada's oldest national park, Banff. Home to nearly 60 species of mammals and 280 species of birds, see if you can spot black bears, wolverines, marmots, moose, golden eagles, or white-tailed ptarmigan.

Trekking Fitz Roy and Torres del Paine is an undoubtedly challenging experience, yet it will reward you with spectacular mountain landscapes and glacier views. On a Patagonia trip, you’ll spend a night inside a forest, surrounded by the jagged peaks of this iconic hiking destination.

The simple campsite has a dedicated dining area where you can gather with fellow travellers to share your favourite moments from this epic hike across Argentina and Chile.

With so much to see along the Ganges River in India, camping is the perfect way to take a break. Throughout your journey from Delhi to Kathmandu, after floating past small villages, lush wheat fields, and intricate temples, you’ll stop overnight at a camp on a sandbank in the middle of the Ganges.

Expect a simple yet unique wild camping experience. While the location can vary depending on local conditions, wherever you are, you’ll enjoy a relaxing dinner cooked over a campfire, as well as a beautiful display of stars at night.
