It’s called ‘Celestial Glamping Expeditions,’ and it’s run by the guys over at The Inn of the Five Graces. Forget roughing it. Here, “glamping” is code for “I still want champagne with my stargazing.”
So, prepare yourself for a journey through Chaco Canyon (which is a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site and an International Dark Sky National Park) and Taos, where you’ll witness some of the most jaw-dropping night skies known to humanity; it’s just you, your private luxurious tent, and the Milky Way stretching out above you like the universe’s most exclusive red carpet.
Led by expert guides, you’ll explore sacred sites and the ancient mysteries of Chaco Canyon without getting sand in your shoes or wondering if you’ve packed enough sunscreen by day and by night, you’ll sleep under the twinkling gaze of the night sky’s finest.
Each tent features luxe amenities.
But as you’d expect, this isn’t your average camp. Each tent features luxe amenities such as raised wooden bed frames, memory foam mattresses (no sore backs here), bedside tables, comfortable butterfly canvas chairs and enchanting Southwest textiles.
