This long weekend get ready to camp in two of our most popular campsites in Vagamon & Thekkady. Both these campsites offer unmatched views right from your tent. Though these campsites are just 50 kms apart, they present a vastly different scenery which is sure to make your long weekend camping experience exhilarating.
Your first stop would be at our Camp Cloudscape Campsite in Kannimarchola, Thekkady.
Located in an enviable 50 acre spice plantation in Thekkady Hills this Camp spot is anyone's dream come true! This 'you drop your camera for a minute & you will miss a beautiful photograph' campsite is home to a variety of flora & fauna. The campsite even houses a small antique museum.
Go on a spice plantation walk, spot native birds of Western Ghats, lie a hammock & read a book or savor the panoramic view from your tents. The campsite also spoils you with a lavish spread including some interesting native cuisine.
From here we would move to our Superstar campsite in Vagamon.

Their Itinerary was well planned and it’s worth the cost. what else do we need?
Cloudscape Camping was too good(Guys this is must try at least once). Also, this is for everyone who wish to travel as family, friends and solo travellers. Safety is ensured!
You will have time to vibe alone and also with group. People who assisted us were so friendly. They engaged us and ensured we are good. No complaints and No disappointments.
This is new experience where I got some new connections.

This is my 2nd solo travel with exoticamp. Trip was well planned and executed. Hosts Suresh and Jerry were absolutely best, Never was there a dull moment. The sunset and sunrise views at both campsites were a must see. The Property owner of Thekkady campsite had a vast and beautiful collection of antiques & flora. Food was good at both camps.
Had loads of fun and great time. Thank you Jerry, Suresh and the group.

I had an incredible experience with Exoticamp! Recently, I went to Thekkady and Vagamon with my daughter, and I must emphasize that Exoticamp is highly safe. The campsite was stunning, surrounded by nature's beauty. The organizers were friendly, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere. From well-planned activities to delicious meals, every detail was thoughtfully executed. We enjoyed every moment of our adventure and created lasting memories. I highly recommend Exoticamp for an unforgettable outdoor experience!
