Volunteer Programs in Goa, India

Everything was amazing! Cultural week was very interesting and I really enjoy it, it was a nice introduction to a different culture. Volunteering was amazing: volunteering with the elderly was so rewarding. In the afternoon I volunteered with the slum kids, which was another great experience. Local team was wonderful. Harseerat and Kallyan are so nice and helpful. They supported me during volunteering (they volunteered with me, and you can see how the kids and the elderly love them), and they helped me to experience all aspects of the local culture (food experiences included!). I was the only volunteer but I never felt alone. Food was delicious, always fresh and varied. Accomodation is amazing, not only the house/room, but the location as well. I have really loved this program, keep on!

After a week there, about 300 people came for a tour from cruise boats. My 13 and 15 year old sons were knowledgeable enough to lead tours. It was amazing to watch. They knew a lot about the animals and their stories, why/how they were being cared for at the reserve, and what tourists could do to help better the experience of local wildlife. We had an amazing week bonding with the animals and the staff!
