Phu Yen through the lens of "green tourism"

27/02/2025

In recent years, the trend of sustainable experiential tourism has become a new wave in Vietnam, especially among communities that love nature and seek trips with deep humanistic values.

In the summer of April 2023, Xanh Camping officially launched in Phu Yen, as one of the pioneering organizations in developing green tourism in Phu Yen. This place is not just simply an exploration trip but also an invitation to protect and preserve nature. From wild camping trips to practical community activities, this model is gradually asserting its position in the sustainable tourism trend that is increasingly attracting the attention of tourists.

Originated from a passion for backpacking and pride in one's homeland

With the nickname "Tai Bui", Le Quy Tai has been involved in backpacking trips for a long time, leading his companions through wild roads, never left by tourists. When deciding to start an experiential tourism business in Phu Yen, Tai shared: "Xanh Camping is not simply a camping service, but also a way we want to bring people back to nature, to the core values ​​of Phu Yen - a place that has not been overexploited, where people still retain the wild beauty". That is why Tai chose his hometown to start this entrepreneurial journey.

Phu Yen - an ideal destination for experiential tourism

Phu Yen is famous for its long beaches, fine white sand, pristine forests and clear waterfalls. The wildness, not yet exploited too much, is the factor that attracts tourists to this place. However, according to Tai, Xanh Camping has not organized many overnight camping activities because this requires the team to have experience and deep understanding of geography, as well as ensuring the safety of tourists.

Phu Yen is not only famous for its beautiful landscape but also for the wildness and integrity of its tourist attractions.

However, day trips always receive a strong response, especially from middle-aged customers and their families. "Families come here to experience the peace and closeness to nature, from bathing in the clear waters of the First Waterfall to enjoying dishes prepared on the spot from fresh ingredients," Tai shared.

What is special is that the activities here not only include exploring nature but also sharing sessions on how to protect the environment. Each trip of Xanh Camping often has the participation of local guides, bringing visitors interesting stories about the life and culture of Phu Yen, as well as ways to minimize negative impacts on the environment.

Green tourism - the future trend of Vietnam's tourism industry

According to the latest report from the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), sustainable tourism is increasingly dominating the choices of global tourists. Accordingly, more than 50% of tourists participating in the survey said they prioritize choosing tours that focus on environmental protection and local community development. This number shows a clear change in consumer behavior, as they not only look for exciting trips but also want to actively contribute to protecting the planet.

In Vietnam, this trend is also being strongly welcomed, including Xanh Camping. Tai said that Xanh's model is not simply camping, but a lifestyle, a message of respect for nature. "We not only take tourists to beautiful places but also help them realize the value of protecting the environment. Actions such as picking up trash on the beach or bringing green net bags to collect plastic waste on Da Bia mountain are all activities we do regularly," Tai confided.

Do tourism to protect the environment and develop the community

Xanh Camping not only contributes to protecting nature but also accompanies local communities in volunteer projects. One of the notable initiatives is the "Autumn for Children" project, where Tai and the Xanh team collected plastic bottles on the mountain and made recycled lanterns to give to disadvantaged children. These small actions are creating a big impact on the community, while encouraging tourists and locals to participate in environmental protection.
