Program Overview

Make a difference to the wild animals of Africa on our Monkey Rehabilitation trip in South Africa.

You don’t have to go far in South Africa to spot a vervet monkey. As their natural habitat shrinks and ours grows, they have adapted to life in ever-growing urban landscapes. While vervet monkeys are so cute (especially the young ones!), they’re just as smart. Wait until you see one opening a door or window to get to your food. This leads to conflict, causing many monkeys to be injured by disgruntled farmers or startled city dwellers. And then, there are the labs and people who think wild animals are pets.

All this to say, there are plenty of monkeys in South Africa that need rehabilitation. And you can be a part of it!

Spend your days volunteering at a monkey rehabilitation center in Limpopo Province. On your days off, wildlife reserves and big, wild animals are waiting.

Use code GA100 for up to $100 off your trip.
