GIVE Costa Rica: Wildlife Conservation & Resonsible Travel

Traveling with Give will allow you to volunteer, try new foods, see beautiful places, meet wonderful people, and learn a great deal in a short time. No matter who the person is, anyone who comes on a Give trip for the first time will leave the trip with memories to last a lifetime and a new, more profound insight into life. I highly recommend this program to new travelers who are apprehensive about planning their first trip to a foreign country. Every detail is handled for you with Give, allowing you to focus your mental energy on all the great new experiences instead of the frustrating parts of travel. I am so grateful for my time with Give, and I encourage anyone thinking about going on a Give trip themselves to do it!

This was my second trip with GIVE and it did not disappoint in the slightest! Each day of the trip I was challenged to seek discomfort and map my own journey, all while having the support from EVERYONE around me. The balance between volunteering and adventure was perfect. Zip lining through the jungle and white water rafting down the Pacuare River were absolutely exhilarating. Volunteering at Finca las Hormigas and in the local town of Gandoca expanded my perspective and fueled a deep desire to make a meaningful impact.

I went on my first trip with Give Volunteers over the summer and went to Costa Rica and it was the best experience I have ever had. I chose to go for 2 weeks but wish I had added on the Nicaragua option. This organization provides you to learn all about the world and experience different places. It is extremely organized and is so simple to figure out. This organization answered every time I called and answered all of my questions with no problem! When I tell you this experience changed my life I am being 100% honest. I had such an amazing time I’m going to Tanzania over the summer for my 2nd give trip and can’t wait!! I highly recommend going for it if you are thinking about it!!!
