The Camp Baui Experience

I am not a travel fan, and I am rarely fascinated with places outside my room. I also don’t initiate travels among my family and friends. I like going out, but I don’t love it. I quickly get tired of traveling, and if ever there’s a need to go and travel, I want to make sure it’ll be worth the hassle. Lol. Please don’t get me wrong, I am an extrovert, but my social batteries get recharged through being with people and not by tiring myself with the packing and walking. Yes, I am that person.

Whenever I go out for a long trip, I want to ensure it’s somewhere worth the multiple visits. Since you all know we are preparing for our wedding, we were scouting for places where we can have our out-of-town prenup shoot. We had options until we found this gem that was not too near and yet not too far from the metro. Located at Purok 1, Brgy. Sto. Niño, Tanay, Rizal, we found a reasonably new glamping site named “Camp Baui.” The camp is about 10 minutes hike to the Mayton River Rock Formation. It is a gated property wherein you can also park your vehicle. It is highly advisable to use a 4×4 vehicle or a motorcycle than can cross 2 rivers. There’s also a hanging bridge passable by both motorcycles and on foot.

Camp Baui has three (3) cabins, or Tepee houses, as they call them. It has everything you want for your glamping experience. Number 1 on the list is the telco signal. No signal at all! A perfect spot where you can detach yourself from the busy metro life without being physically too far away. But fret not because, surprisingly, they have a wi-fi connection to fit your social media needs. But do you need one when you do glamping? If you want to be with Mother Nature and to find inner peace, don’t connect to the wi-fi and enjoy the moment of social media detachment. Since you will be in the mountains, expect no electricity except for the lights and fan powered by their solar devices. You are speaking about sustainability and being environmentally friendly!

Being in the mountains is not easy because you will be far from restaurants and other stores, so it’s best to bring your food and cook it there. They provide a shared kitchen that you can use. The caretakers and the owner are super friendly and allowed us to use the entire place for our prenup shoot. The scenery is simply breathtaking.
