Global Expeditions, Arizona

Run by a husband-and-wife team for two decades, this well-reputed organization (with ties to Abercrombie & Kent) specializes in custom-tailored luxury camping excursions throughout the American West. Providing guests with their “own personal dream of adventure and solitude,” trips are catered to the whims of a well-to-do clientele who can afford the price tag of rugged refinement (from $2,500–$4,500 per person for a basic three-night trip). Bunk down in white canvas tents replete with knotty pine furnishings (including a queen bed) and carpeted floors, and leave the tin pots behind – your own personal chef will serve up tableside multi-course meals (think entrees like Pacific black cod in pineapple-tamari sauce) – on fine china, of course! Extras like guided outdoor activities or live musical entertainment by your campfire are yours on command. While campsite possibilities are numerous, we’re keen on their 20,000-acre Arizona ranch near the Grand Canyon, set under the snow-capped mountains of the San Francisco Peaks and home to a herd of wild elk. www.globalexpeditionsinc.com/luxury.htm
