What thousands of Worldpackers are saying about it

Aixa

Argentina

It allows you to travel economically, really get to know the culture of the place and most importantly: meet wonderful and different people, which allows you to open up and evolve in many ways!!

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!

Juliana

Brazil

I recommend the site to all my friends; the idea of exchanging what you can is simply brilliant. I'm having the experience of my life through your site and I'm eternally grateful to have discovered it. A big dream is to be part of this, helping others to have experiences as good as the one I am having.

Iris

Brazil

Worldpacker was always by my side, sending messages and saying 'Any problem, call us.' I didn't have any problems, but it's good to know that there is someone who will help us... Feeling more than protected is great! No words really, everything is perfect. And this won't be the first!!!!

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.

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.

Patty

Brazil

It was an incredible experience! I think this intermediary between those who want to receive and those who want to travel is perfect for getting to know the local culture. Get to know people, places, and things that you wouldn't know if you were on a tourist trip. Incredible! They are to be congratulated!

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.

Rahul

India

Everyone should travel; it's the same as reading a book. And with Worldpackers, you blend in with locals like deep diving into the book.

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.
