Tree Tent Glamping by Tentsile
When we launched Alter Experiences, we set out to find the most comfortable and extraordinary tent on the market. We wanted something unique and exciting that would awaken the inner child and encourage people to camp more often. It was also very important to us that we aligned with a company with the highest ethical and green standards, which would compliment our sustainably oriented tourism model. After weeks of research and testing out gear, we decide that Tentsile Tree Tents would be our flagship product.

San Diego Winter Glamping
When we first set out to create our glamping business, we wanted to create unique and different spaces in nature that would appeal to a wide audience, including non-campers.
Our tree tents were a hit from the start, but we realized that experience wasn't for everyone. Our glamping operation in San Diego's backcountry can be challenging in these mountains at elevations of 6,000+ ft. Temperature is on average 10 degrees colder than the coast and the winter's can be brutal. It's known to get into the low 20's at times.
