The website was very structured and all information were available and easy to find. The pre-departure booklet was also very useful to prepare for the trip. The service was really good. The Answers to the emails where really fast.

I enjoyed my placement the accommodation and meals both were good and I definitely felt that my efforts get appreciated. The in-country staff were really nice and helped me a lot. Working at the orphanage is the highlight of my volunteering trip.

Everything was very useful and friendly to use. It is very nice to have your own account with updated information on the website. The information was very easy to locate.

The pre-departure booklet was very good it reflects the seriousness of the organization and makes you feel more safe. The staff was ok in answering all the questions. The street children project has been the most rewarding experience!

The accommodation was excellent perfectly located and clean! It become like a home. The meals were ok! Working at the placement was the best part learning from Indian culture through meeting new people.

Thank you for everything! You made these 7 weeks a life experience I will even tell to my grandsons when I get old! Your presence made everything way much easier! Continue with the promotion of helping others life will give it all back to you! And feel lucky of your amazing country different but totally interesting and rich in every sense! I will miss you!

I liked the introduction about the projects on the website. I find the pre-departure booklet on the net and I think it was good.

I enjoyed my placement children in orphanage were so warm. I felt my efforts get appreciated.

Accommodation and meals were fantastic! Better than my imagination. The in-country staff were really helpful and I really appreciate them.

The children were soooo nice! I wish I could stay for a long time with them.

It was easy to see everything on the website about your chosen program. I liked having the pre-departure booklet and was good to have before leaving for the program.


The Staff was great. If I ever emailed I would always receive an email back helping me as they could and while on my program any little question asked was always answered even if it meant our tour guide had to find it out for us.

I loved my placement. Best experience of my life. I do feel like it was worthwhile however I did feel at certain points that it probably would not have mattered if I was there or not. But I was always willing to help and definitely felt appreciated by everyone involved.

The accommodation was exactly how I expected and in some areas it was better than I thought and actually better than some volunteers. I felt very lucky. Meals were always good and very accommodating towards my vegan dietary with no questions asked which I also appreciated.

The in-country coordinator and support staff was Amazing. Everybody was there for you no matter what and did whatever they could to help you and help you have the best time ever.

The highlight was meeting not only the group I was working with I got to meet other volunteers and get close with them and make friends for life with people from all over the world. The volunteering at the elephant village and the childcare center was the best experience and so rewarding! It could never be replaced!

I believed I had 3 weeks volunteering and 1week at the beach but I turned out that I only had two weeks volunteering as excursions are also included in those 3 weeks. I would if like more volunteering involved even if it was just a few more days at the childcare center. Other than that I had the best month of my life and I would recommend it to anyone even contemplating the idea. It's more than just volunteering as you get to travel and see amazing sights you haven't and will never see again. Thank you for the most amazing experience of my life thus far!!

The website was informative and user-friendly and the pre-departure booklet was also very informative and helpful.

The accommodation was clean and comfortable and the meals were good. The in-country support staff was very helpful and informative.

The entire trip was the highlight sight seeing weekend trips the placement/project I enjoyed everything.

Everything was good good experience good program and staff.

I like everything on the website. The pre-departure booklet was very helpful. the accommodation was very good more than we expected.

The in-country staff are really kind helpful and reliable. especially Shankar and he is so handsome.

Everything was wonderful and the highlight of my trip was experiencing India’s environment.

I like the countdown to the trip and how the information was separated into different sections. It really made it easy to find. I know it's difficult to be specific about every volunteering experience but more information about the family and the individual projects would have been helpful.

I really enjoyed working at both of my placements. I feel that they really appreciated the gifts I brought with me. The accommodation was very comfortable and the family were extremely welcoming.

The in-country staff Yovana was extremely helpful and went out of her way to make sure I felt comfortable and happy.

The highlight of my volunteering experience was the relationship I developed with the children at my project. The highlight of my trip was visiting Machu Picchu.

The staff was great. Every time when I had a question and write an e-mail I’ve got an answer very quickly and I didn’t have to worry. Tage service was good. I have got answers right away.

My placement was great. I enjoyed the time with the kids and the staff. The girls I went with were a very good company.

The accommodation was fine and the food was great. Great service If there were any questions we always had someone to talk to. Everybody was very nice. I think everybody at the Projekt was Happy that we we're there.

It was a great experience. The Golden Triangle Tour and my birthday cakes are definitely the highlight of my volunteering trip. Also experiences: to see that people who have very less are very happy with what they have.

I always recommend this organization and program this was the best experience of my life.

Volunteering Solutions Staff Sahil answered every question of mine which helped me a lot. I really enjoyed working at the NACA orphanage. The kids there are enthusiastic and very smart. They are willing to express themselves and show great respect to us as teachers.

I feel my experience was worthwhile. When the last day came I didn't expect myself to cry. But when about twenty lovely kids sang the only Chinese song they knew to us with some wrong pronunciation I felt that really touched. I think although two weeks is very short and the kids will have many other teachers like me and maybe they won't remember me if they learn something from me no matter it's English or maths or even Chinese I think then my experience was worthwhile.

The accommodation was very good and the meals are delicious. The in-country staff were also very good. I knew several great kids who loved China and Chinese. I hope that one day I will go back to NACA.

I liked the Pre Departure Information because they gave me a good impression of what I can expect in South Africa.

I really loved my project. I could work with the grade R at my school and the children were so lovely. It was awesome to see how happy you could make them by helping them with their exercises and playing with them. I also liked my teacher very much. She handled the children so well and it was always a pleasure to help her. I also got the chance to make some experiences in higher grades and I was allowed to teach a grade 7 one day when their teacher was ill. It was an interesting new task I could cope with and it was very nice to see that they already missed me after one day.

I could always see the smile on the children's faces when I did something for them and that's how I know it was the right decision to go to Capetown.

The accommodation was placed perfectly. Sea Point is such a nice place to live in Capetown right next to the sea. With mini buses and taxis you had the best connection to the city centre Camps Bay the Waterfront and you could also start your hike to Lions Head right at the hostel. The meals were ok the food was good but often not enough to make you full.

I can not really point out one highlight of my stay in Capetown. I had the chance to see so many things in and around Capetown like the V& A Waterfront the Stadium Robben Island Longstreet the Companies Gardens the Signal Hill Lions Head Table Mountain the most southern tip of Africa the Cape of Good Hope and so on..and It was awesome how many people from all over the world you get to know in the hostel and how much you can miss them when you have to go back home!

After spending 2 weeks abroad in Surin Thailand I can safely say this was one of my best travel experiences. The coordinators made it easy to sign up for the programs and they made it clear as to what to do once I landed.

I learned new cultures and met lots of other great volunteers from all over the globe. The program itself was educational and unique. Many volunteers chose to stay longer and I can't say I blame them.

Accommodation was very basic but had all the essentials and was clean. The coordinators gave us lots of freedom in spending our spare time and gave us information about weekend trips and such.

I highly recommend signing up for a trip! You'll learn many things about the world and discover more about yourself in the process.

I liked the my account section on the website where I was able to easily upload all my information and access it quickly. The pre-departure booklet was extremely detailed and was useful especially as I have never been to India alone. My questions were all responded to.

I really enjoyed my placement. It was great to see how the organisation works and the people that work there and the children were a pleasure to meet.

The accommodation was lovely. It was in a safe area and felt like a little home. The meals were nice maybe sometimes too spicy.

I didn’t really meet many staff members.Shankar and his brother were really great! and everyone on the Agra and Jaipur weekend trip were great too.

Meeting the children and the women’s at Project Center was the highlight of my trip. They were really wonderful inspirational people and it was a pleasure to help their organization.

All of the information I needed was very fast to access on the website well placed and easy to work with. The staff response on emails was very good I am very satisfied.

I liked working with the children but the placement’s environment was very dirty as I am in street children program.

Accommodation was good and comfortable meals were ok adding a little bit of meat would make them even better.

The in-country support staff was very helpful. I spent very short time with children so we didn’t have time to know each other very well.

I think the website is quite good everything is clear and the information is easy to find. The pre-departure booklet was really complete and also it was very useful I think all the issues were covered.

The service staff was great from the very beginning if not it wouldn't have been so easy to get the trip ready. I loved the project I was working on the experience just couldn't have been more amazing. I was really impressed by the staff team of my orphanage ( Upendo Face). they were so nice to us and to the kids I'm glad I had the chance to work there.

I think the meals were really good and the accommodation too. it’s true that they could clean the rooms more often but it was correct.

The predeparture booklet was very informative and helpful. Working at the day care center has been an amazing experience.

The accommodation was very comfortable and I have had very nice moments. Meals were very nice!.

The people I have met including the children the staff and other volunteers are the highlight of the trip. And also being able to discover a bit better the wonders of India and its culture and its sites.

An incredible experience would definitely recommend!

I liked the different tabs for the upcoming trip on the website and how they were red or green depending on if the requirements had been fulfilled. I also loved the countdown until the trip at the top of the page!

I wish there had been more specific packing information in pre-departure booklet such as to bring a backpacking backpack rather than a suitcase! The staff was very helpful and timely in their responses.

I enjoyed my placement and I thought we would do more volunteering than we did but I was happy with the experiences that I did have. The childcare sit was very appreciative of our work with the kids and the school improvement projects as well.

The accommodations were great and I was very thankful to have AC in all the hotels. I always felt very safe. The meals provided at the elephant village were amazing and some of the best I had on the entire trip!

In-country support staff was amazing! I LOVE BEN!!!

My highlight of the experience was visiting and working at the elephant village in Surin. It was definitely one of the top three highlights of my entire life!

I have to say that I was very impressed with the organization and the amount of activities planned throughout the course of the trip. I am fortunate to have traveled quite a bit during my lifetime with other programs and I was very pleased with Volunteering Solutions and their commitment to following the set program and participating in each activity the fullest.

I found the website very useful. Also every email I sent was answered promptly and in full. I felt that I had adequate help in preparing for the trip.

The kids were lovely. I wish we could have stayed longer. Breakfast and dinner was delicious. I think if there were more fresh fruit and vegetables it would be nice but that is just a personal preference without was fine as well.

The highlight was going to the placement and playing with the kids I wish we had more time.

I liked that all the information regarding each placement was all on one page of the website and organized in a logical manner. It’s also good that there were pictures and videos of the placement and feedback from other volunteers. The pre– departure booklet contained a lot of helpful and useful information.

I enjoyed all of my placements: Rotary women & childcare hospital Karan Hospital & Dr. Kalyan Walk in Clinic. I learned different things at each of them. My favorite in terms of learning the most was with Dr. Kalyan. He always tries to involve the volunteers in some way and is constantly teaching even while seeing many patients.

The accommodation are very nice. A lot of work has been put into making them welcoming and comfortable and clean. The meals are always delicious and filling.

About the In–country Staff I don’t know Amit very well but he was always very organized and professional. Bobby was Amazing. He is very caring and always trying to make sure everyone is happy healthy and safe. He would go out of his way to ensure you have a wonderful experience and make you want to come back.

It’s hard to say only one thing as highlight of my trip since I have been here a month and seen so many things. I mean trekking to Tirund driving to Manali and sightseeing in Kangra were awesome. If I have to choose it would probably be what I came here for: being able to observe surgeries live in the OT (Operation Theatre).

I would definitely recommend it I have had a great experience. Only that I wish I was staying longer!

The website was very detailed on all excursions we would be doing. The project was one of the best experiences of my life I feel I learnt a lot.

Most definitely I enjoyed the experience the work was not forced and everyone worked at a comfortable pace the group was amazing and we had the best tour guide (Ben) who made us feel like family.

The accommodation was the right balance we experienced hostels hotels and guesthouses which was the perfect mix to experience life in Thailand.

The staff were very helpful. The elephant village gave me a lot of joy I gained peace of mind adapting to a different lifestyle also I enjoyed the kids daycare in Surin.

I like personal Profile and different programs on the website but would like to see more pictures and of programs. The pre-departure booklet was very handy. It was nice to know what were going to before arriving.

We have enjoyed a lot working in the Arya Samaj Charitable centre and we liked it a lot. Meals were good very tasty although we ate nice for almost everyday. Accommodation was very good the beds were good and the room was cold thanks to A/C.

In-country coordinator Shankar and Ramesh was always very helpful and willing to make us feel at home. They are great! and I am going to miss them.

The most important thing we have learned a new culture entirely different that owns and that has been really interesting to know!
