Internships & Volunteer Positions in Cape Town, South Africa

Before I arrived I had amazing help. And that continued when I was there. South Africa is a beautiful country and I was sad when it was my time to go. I had lovely months with lovely people. I will go back 100% in the future

My stay in Cape Town was truly a life-changing experience. From the moment I arrived, Magister made sure I felt welcomed and prepared for my stay. The organizers were very supportive and organized my accommodation and work place which exceeded my expectations in every way. I loved my host family and role as a teacher assistant and child care worker. I connected with locals and other volunteers from around the world and built friendships that I will cherish forever. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to make a positive impact while exploring one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Cape Town’s breathtaking beauty left an indelible mark on my heart so that I hope to return someday!

Very good preparation. Whenever there were questions, there was always a quick response and the supervisors always responded immediately. Furthermore, there was a lot to do with the Magister at the beginning of my stay, but during the summer time there was actually nothing more to do. There are also fun activities that allow you to meet other people.

I spent five months in cape town for my internship. It was the five best months of my life thanks to Magister! Magister helped me with everything, for example, arranging housing, finding an internship and arranging my visa. Going to the other side of the world on my own was quite exciting at first. But because of the warm welcome we received from Magister, those tensions were quickly gone! Also, Magister organizes really fun activities every week! You get to know a lot of new fellow students. The activities were always super well organized. If you arrange your trip/traineeship through Magister, you are guaranteed a great time in South Africa. A big thanks to them!

This program is the best! I have met amazing people, who I still talk to every single day. Whenever I needed guidance or help with anything, Nicky would be there to help immediately. Also the housing was great! They would also arrange group activities, which were perfect to meet everybody and new people from all over the world!

Nicky and Magister in general were so helpful with coming to South Africa as an intern. It was my first time traveling this far from home, but with the amazing support of Magister I never felt homesick or anything. It really felt like the warmest welcome. Everything from choosing my house, to getting picked up from the airport, to all the fun activities that were organized. Magister is great if you want the freedom to explore and choose your own experience, with the guidance of some Capetonian experts. I would absolutely recommend interning in South Africa with Magister: at your own risk though, cause you might never want to leave :)
