The best experience of my life!
March 20, 2019by: Kamila Malinowski Veramendi - MexicoHi! I´m Kamila Malinowski from Mexico City. In January of this year I had the opportunity to participate as a volunteer at Naankuse Wildlife Conservation as a solo traveler and it was the best decision of my life! Definitely being able to work with wild animals so close has been the best experience! I had the chance to meet incredible people from all over the world. It's amazing how all the workers and volunteers welcome you as a family. Working with this beautiful and docile animals is an experience I will never forget!
A grateful experience

It was amazing to be in contact with another culture, talk with people of different places in the world, work closely to animals feeding and giving love to them. The places in South Africa are so beautiful, the safari, Cape Town, Jeffreys bay.. everything. I will never forget this experience!!
Worth it every minute
May 10, 2019by: Vinícius Albuquerque - BrazilI really enjoyed the experience as a whole. Cape Town is a beautiful city to do tourism, and work as a volunteer was a amazing self-development experience. I felt like I was helping me and other people at the same time.
