There is a new trend in that many people want to camp in Europe because they are keen to experience eco-tourism. This is a type of travel that more and more agents are providing specialised services in and they look to find packages that feature the best natural experiences in Europe. Travel agents offer the real nature lover a chance to trek through Europe by putting together a package that consists of the tourist hiking through certain parts of Europe over several days or weeks and stopping at night to camp or to stay in a modest bed and breakfast.
