In the new year of 2023, nothing will make us happier than looking forward to our next trip. Whether you're traveling to learn something new, give back meaningfully, or simply bask in the beauty of the world, here are some travel ideas we're excited about for the year 2023.
You can now book lodging in the middle of a forest or field, bringing you closer to breathtaking natural landscapes - and wildlife. Many of these remote huts, cabins, and pods are rustic as well as aesthetically pleasing. From bubble domes in Ireland to glass pods in New Zealand and tree houses in Norway, plan an escape in 2023 that will allow you to disconnect from the world truly.
Not only will you enrich your understanding of the places you visit, but Indigenous people can broaden your worldview and help you see the land, the sky, and human history in new ways.
From the far north of Canada to the outback of Australia, the number of tours catering to travelers seeking more profound knowledge and connections is expanding.
Could your next trip have a positive, long-term impact on the world? Beyond the mission of “do no harm,” travelers are seeking opportunities to make things better. Travelers can participate in a trip to Madagascar and spend volunteer time planting trees on its “energy tree” project. Helping locals plant trees for firewood and thus protecting pre-existing forests. Plan a 2023 trip to deliver more than just wonderful memories!
Another happy travel experience is learning how to live sustainably from those who have done it - and then applying that knowledge back home. Combine this with surfing and socializing, and you have a holiday nourishing the mind, body, and soul. In Australia, for example, travelers can attend the farm-based cooking school One Table Farm, which also offers sustainability-based farm tours with tips on raising chickens, making kefir (a fermented milk drink), and sourcing higher-welfare food from supermarkets.
Vulnerable animal species are making a comeback in various parts of the world, thanks to impressive action by local communities. In the Caribbean, the tiny Union Island gecko has nearly doubled its population in four years. Residents, the government, and local conservation groups worked together to put an end to the poaching of this rare gem-like lizard. Not only that, Europe and the USA have plans to reintroduce grizzly bears, and European bison,... back on nature.
The switch to solar power is not only beneficial to the environment. It has changed the experience of wildlife viewing by removing noise and pollution, allowing visitors to quietly creep up on wildlife and enjoy proper conversations while traveling together.
The best reason to plan a train adventure in Europe? It's a tie between the rolling views during the day and the romance of a sleeper carriage at night. Sitting next to the window to take in the breathtaking views of mountains, forests, and rivers.
Why not take your wild swimming obsession to the next level in 2023 with a swimming vacation? You could be swimming in a desert oasis, swimming with dolphins in a wild fjord in Oman, circumnavigating karst islands in Vietnam's emerald-green waters, swimming between Sweden and Finland at the Swimac (swimming the Arctic Circle), and so on.
