This sounds like backpacking... which you can do for way less than $30k. A nicely equipped pack from scratch can be had for less than $1k. Add in a little more for food, airfare, and any accomodations before and after, and you can do a trip like this for a couple thousand dollars max.
Of course prior wilderness experience is also essential, so I guess some people will want to spend extra for a special forces guide.
- dharmab 5y ago$1k is a pretty nice pack. You could probably scrounge something together for a few hundred by leveraging used and clearance stuff.

People, however, pay extra money for convenience and hand-holding. This should also not be a revelation. You need look no further than bloated SLAs.
