This trip to Tanzania, Africa helped change my life
I loved my volunteering experience with go volunteer Africa, I only wish I had volunteered for longer than just 3 weeks! It's left me wanting more and I’m already hoping to return.
I stayed in Arusha, with 2 other volunteers (younger than me) and this children support care project made me realize how blessed I was and how great it was to make an impact in the lives of other children, after raising my 2 children. I came home knowing that I truly made a difference in the lives of the children I was involved with.
The group leaders did a great job of keeping us informed of what was going on and I didn't feel out of the loop as some people might feel when starting on a new project. I was very involved with everything and my group leaders were there every step of the way to help the volunteers out.
If you are looking for a volunteer experience that is legitimate, sustainable and enjoyable all whilst making a truly valuable impact then look no further, than this organization.
I spent half my time supporting teaching at a children’s centre in a local Arusha township and the other half - a truly incredible project that supports grandmothers to provide after-school care, fun and food to children.
I learnt more than I could have imagined, not just about the culture and lifestyles of the communities, but also about the nature of volunteering abroad itself. It's about offering support whilst remaining completely sustainable, less about the hand outs and more about enabling and empowering others. This means that your impact is truly lasting and unforgettable.
At the children’s centre you will meet some very special children who will fall in love with you as soon as you walk in through the front door! Their squeals of joy and the songs they will teach you will buzz around your head forever. I spent most mornings reading stories, teaching English and supporting their play.
I do have a lot to share and I don’t think this space will be enough, all I can say, I recommend this wonderful organization for connecting me to the perfect volunteering experience. Although I am 54 and most of the other volunteers were young people, I enjoyed my time with everyone.

Very helpful and friendly tour organizers!
We had a tailored 7 days tour which included visiting 6 countries. While our main purpose was to see Gorilas and chimpanzees which was an absolutely amazing experience, we also had lots of opportunities to see much more - game drive, boat trip and etc. Aron and Dougalas have been very attentive to our needs and wishes and arranged everything very well. Given it is traveling in Africa which has it challenges with multiple border crossings and encountering different nationalities and cultures, they made our stay rather comfortable, safe and pleasant. We had an unfortunate experience and made lots of long lasting memories. Thank you both!

Very knowledgeable
Booking with this company was easy, and follow up was seamless. All operators were always on time. Our tour guide Lambs was quite knowledgeable and took his time to look for the animals, ensured we had a good view of the animals and allowed us sufficient time to take pictures. My group never felt rushed despite completing the tour in the required time frame. I would definitely recommend to anyone wishing to have this experience.

Worth it!
We went for the Mokoro in the Delta from Maun. It was a nice experience.
We had a walking tour and seeing the animals ( not inside a vehicle) it's really nice.
I recommend.

The best team to lead your "once in the life" experience ro the success!
Fransisca responded promptly and appropriately to my requests for advice on what to prepare before the trip and adjusting the schedule. Goddy and the other guides explained and talked about various things to make the climb not boring, and on the day of the summit attack, they adjusted my pace and always encouraged me, leading me to a successful summit.
I believe that it would never have been possible without their support.
The only thing that was disappointing was that the quality of the hotels they booked before and after the trip was not worth the price, but everything else was so wonderful.

Very professional
It was my second time travelling with them, this time with my family. From the moment I contacted them via mail for initial infos they have been very professional, they replied quickly with all the details I needed.
The tours are always very well organized, the driver/guide very polite, well prepared and on time.

Unforgettable Tanzania
The trip to Tanzania was absolutely fantastic, particularly because of the amazing action packed game drives with guide Benson and also because of the super great resorts that we were booked in. We enjoyed the boat safari, fishing, bird watching and the walking safaris in addition to the game drives, which all enhanced the experience in a big way.
Selous is like no other place we have been to as there was always a new experience waiting to be discovered. We will definitely come back for another adventure.
