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!
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!
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.
Argentina
Because it is very good to find places to volunteer in a safe way, being able to see the comments of other volunteers and speak with them.
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.
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.
Germany
This was my first-ever Worldpacker experience. This is a great platform for the creative, young, budget, and aspiring travelers. I hope Worldpacker provides the great opportunities as well as provides the continuous support to maintain the quality of this excellent idea.
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.
Italy
Because the staff is really kind. As soon as I had a problem, Jair didn't hesitate to contact me, and he was sincerely worried about it. And I think it is a great website. Thank you all, guys; you made me live one of the best experiences of my life.
South Africa
Worldpackers is the reason I get to really experience new cultures. I get to live in different countries and meet the most amazing people.

Absolutely not. You won’t be charged anything else at all during the time you use Worldpackers, no matter how many applications you send out, the number of trips you take, or how much content you consume
Some specific hosts request an extra collaboration fee to contribute to their institution/NGO, or to help with costs to make your experience even more rewarding. Make sure to discuss this kind of information with your host before confirming your trip. Learn more.
Don’t worry. We’ll never renew your plan automatically, so you’ll only be charged one time. We’ll reach out to you when your plan is about to expire, and the decision to renew it or not is entirely up to you :)
The Couples/Friends plans were designed especially for those who want to volunteer together with a travel companion. Only one of you needs to pay, and then you can invite your companion. You will then both be able to apply to and confirm trips together during the full validity of your plan. In other words, you will not be able to apply individually.
You can see more details about the Couples/Friends plans here and find all of our open positions which accept multiple travelers here.
We work hard to make sure our community hosts are always responsive. However, they do receive a lot of applications, and they need to pick volunteers that are the best fit for their projects.
So to increase your chances of being accepted, make your profile nice and complete, earn certificates in our Academy, and apply to multiple hosts that you can identify with.
And of course, our support team can also help you to find new volunteer opportunities and give you more tips to increase your chances.
