Volunteering in South America

From conservation and wildlife projects in the Amazon rainforest to life changing community projects in big cities and rural communities, all of our volunteering in South America holidays are run by specialist operators that adhere to strict volunteering guidelines. Most of the holidays are wildlife related, spanning the high Andes to the Amazon basin, where volunteers track and monitor wildlife, often participating in local community projects such as reforestation and sustainable farming.
