In this episode we speak with Mike and Anne Howard, the couple behind the travel brand HoneTrek. Traveling for the last 13 years across 80 countries on The World's Longest Honeymoon, Mike & Anne are travel experts with a passion for glamping. In addition to chronicling their journey on HoneyTrek.com, the Howards have written National Geographic’s bestselling book Ultimate Journeys for Two and the first travel guide on glamping in North America, Comfortably Wild. Earning a Lowell Thomas Journalism Award for their book and the American Glamping Association’s 2024 Pioneer Award, the Howards are committed to the success of the glamping industry...from helping new camps develop their guest experience through HoneyTrek Glamping Consulting and Creative Services to reporting on the industry for Glamping Business Americas magazine. Here, they share some of their favorite experiences and glamping camps from their journey and their next big project...a global edition of Comfortably Wild. As of February 2025, they are embarking on a seven-continent quest to find the most mindful and inspiring getaways! Honing in on regenerative travel destinations, they want to spotlight properties that honor the environment, local communities, and guests, for vacations with a positive impact for all. To pull off this massive task, they are deep in research mode and looking to the glamping community (YOU!) for recommendations for awe-inspiring eco-lodges, safari camps, glampgrounds, or boutique accommodations immersed in nature...so reach out to them @HoneyTrek!
