Almost two-thirds of travelers in Vietnam are keen to go back to basics and experience life with only the bare necessities (61%), while globally, the younger generations (Millennials, 51%, and Gen Z, 50%) are ready to forgo day-to-day luxuries to vacation off-grid, more so than their older counterparts. 

2023 will see a considerable number of Vietnamese travelers venture into the wilderness with friends (61%) or family (32%), motivated by a great portion of travelers desiring to learn essential survival skills (73%).

The travel website suggests visits to Sa Pa to experience the daily life, cuisine and culture of the local people, and rest in lovely wooden houses with decorations inspired by the traditions of the H'Mong people.
 
Completely separate from the hustle and bustle of life, this place has a poetic landscape surrounded by fragrant and beautiful terraced fields.

Around the world, visitors can choose other tourist destinations to practice survival skills - Bedouin Nights Camp, Wadi Rum (Jordan) or cook in the wilderness at The Omni Grove Park Inn in Asheville (USA), or survival camp in Fuefuki (Japan).

For those looking to get back to the wild, they can try the Lodge Tagua Tagua in Puelo, Chile. This destination is located in a remote indigenous forest with breathtaking views by the Puelo River.
