The Backyard Glamping started off with just two tents in (you guessed it!) the backyard of our family home. The owner of our Glamping grew up in the Cameron Highlands and can tell you all about it.
We kindly invite you to take part in our daily life and to share your culture with us.

Our staff consists of people from mixed cultures. We like to share our knowledge with you. We welcome you into our small office home and make you feel welcome. We are sure you will get a heartfelt experience with us.

This was my first experience with worldpackers, and it's been amazing!!!
Ja is very friendly, and I felt welcomed since the day I arrived! The work is easy, cleaning and reception. For me it was even kind of meditative.
All of them are very nice, and we even went for dinner together one day!
Oh, and I taught a yoga class too!
The place is really beautiful, chill and relaxed. You will connect with nature here 💚.
It's easy to walk to Tanah Rata, and there's a lot of places to eat or drink something nearby too.

My volunteering experience at Backyard was fantastic. From the start, everyone was very kind and made me feel like part of the family. I'm especially grateful for the chance to learn new skills like archery. The hosts went above and beyond to make my stay memorable, even taking me to Kuantan for a delicious dinner. I had many good moments and left feeling really grateful. I highly recommend this host to any volunteer looking for a genuine and enjoyable cultural exchange! Special thanks to Mr Zoe and Mr Ja

My volunteering experience at Backyard Glamping was incredible!!!! The owners, Elmi and Zul, along with their family, make you feel at home and even include you in their plans. The tasks were mainly housekeeping and maintenance, but I also had the opportunity to join them on an amazing tour to the Native Village, tea fields, and a waterfall.

The staff is very attentive: Wahidah, Ika, Mas, Ja, Jodi, and Jubba, who were all very kind and even helped me discover more of Cameron Highlands. This place is perfect for disconnecting, enjoying nature, and having an authentic experience.

I really enjoyed my time volunteering at the Backyard glamimg. The work was mainly cleaning and doing laundry, which was easy to manage, and the hosts were very kind and welcoming. As a highlight, I could Join two tours, which made the experience even more special. I would definitely recommend this place to other volunteers.
