A lifetime adventure is waiting for you in South Africa! Sign up for our safari internship, a program that covers a broad range of degree majors and interests - from tourism to business. You will get to focus on tourism and marketing or work as a safari guide. Your position and responsibilities depend largely on the placement. This is also open to volunteers interested in learning the ins and outs of African safaris.

For four weeks to 12 weeks (ideally, eight weeks to 12 weeks), get up close and personal with South Africa’s amazing wildlife. This is a unique and interesting addition your credentials, making your résumé stand out from the competition! If you take on the role of a safari tour guide, you will collaborate with industry professionals. While doing so, learn from their unique perspective and listen to their experiences, allowing you to bring home tips you can use once out in the professional field.

If you land a placement in the sector of tourism and marketing, you will learn more about South Africa’s tourism industry. At the same time, you will have the opportunity to broaden your professional network.
