What thousands of Worldpackers are saying about it

Stephen

Ireland

Volunteering through Worldpackers has given me the greatest experiences of my life. I would scream it from the rooftops. Good job, guys; you're a blessing to the earth.

Emilio

Colombia

It is definitely worth exploring the world through some activity other than the tourism that we all know, and I think Worldpackers is the opportunity to do it. It is necessary to live with communities, learn from them, teach what we know and live other types of experiences although clearly it is the opportunity to know and enjoy. Excellent!

Jiri

Japan

A great place to find different opportunities to meet new people, gain experiences whether in different languages or skill, just about a good site to be at for potential new places you may have not been in!

Helka

Hungary

In my opinion, the best way to learn about ourselves and also about the world is through traveling. When combined with volunteering, it allows you to get an even deeper sense of the chosen place and experience the local way of life. It's also nice to be able to give something back in exchange for the amazing memories you make on the journey.

Géssica

Brazil

As my first experience as a worldpacker, I wanted to do this more often, to travel, meet more and more people, learn about their culture and their ways of thinking. I recommend that everyone who wants to grow as a person and really wants to learn more about this world take part in volunteering. Volunteering is now my new hobby.

Li

Costa Rica

It is an excellent platform! Volunteering is a unique experience that every person should live at some point in their life.

Fernando

Brazil

I believe that living the experience as a packer is something very rewarding and unprecedented. I certainly have a lot of good things to share with my friends and tell them about the experiences I have using this platform.

Valentina

Argentina

Volunteering for me was an endless change both personally and socially. I grew as a person and related to others. So it is super RECOMMENDED.

Micaele

Brazil

I believe Worldpackers' special mission is to improve the world and motivate people to be happy, travel, and do good. Since I discovered Worldpackers, I highly recommend it to friends, family, and anyone with whom the subject comes up.

Katherine

U.S.

The platform is very organized and easy to read, which helps find the most suitable opportunities. But more importantly, the way that reviews are handled and that previous Worldpacker volunteers are listed on posts makes this website the most trustworthy one in my opinion, which for a solo female traveler is paramount.
