What do our past volunteers say?

“My experience in Portugal joining the Marine Conservation program has been incredible. In addition to learning about the importance of marine ecosystems, I have met wonderful people from all over the world. I would like to praise the work of Ana Matos, the program coordinator of Impactrip, and the two diving instructors I had, Nuno Pereira and Sydney. Their enthusiasm and experience helped me to achieve my goals within the volunteering program and fully enjoy my time in Portugal.” - Andrea M, Marine Conservation Program, Portugal

 

“The experience was all around great!! We chose the two-week special in Thailand. We loved our time at Happy Elephant Home. The people were amazing, the food was amazing, and the views were amazing! Everything ran super smoothly and there was not a time where I didn’t feel safe!” - Morgan H, Elephant Camp Program, Thailand
