In the research, it was aimed to determine what kind of services glamping enterprises provide by conducting in-depth interviews with six companies serving primarily within the scope of glamping. Then, the websites of 10 companies from five countries, which are popular for glamping, were compared with 10 companies serving in Turkey. Finally, 56 face-to-face interviews with glamping business owners and principals were conducted with a questionnaire technique and it was tried to determine the altruistic behavior and psychological well-being levels of Glamping operators.
