I absolutely loved my experience at MRN. Punta Islita is a beautiful place and the staff and volunteers at MRN are all amazing to work with. I was a little nervous about having zero background in biology, but it was not necessary, and I learned a lot about parrot care and pre-release training along the way. My month here was such a fulfilling way to experience travel.

Amy and Nisha were such wonderful hosts. It's amazing to learn from people who care so much about the macaws. This is an incredible experience for anyone who wants to enter the conservation world and get real hands on experience.

My month volunteering at MRN was genuinely one of the best of my life. I made friends that became like family to me, and I will never forget the time I spent with them. Getting to work with the birds and see their individual personalities was amazing and such a fulfilling experience! The staff is wonderful and so accommodating. They were very professional during unexpected situations. I could not have imagined a better experience for myself, and I would absolutely recommend MRN to anyone! I will miss this place and these people so dearly. Thank you for everything!

I was picked up by bird manger, Amy who straight away made me feel welcome and part of the team. Over my experience I learnt a lot about the birds and really connected with the team who were there during work time and free time to do to the beach, bar, football, family dinners and more. There was a period of time I wasn't feeling well and I got so much support from the team. It was great to know that these people truly care about you and you're not just volunteers, but friends. Overall my experience was definitely better than I ever imagined and now I'm leaving with 100 unique memories.

Our experience at MRN was amazing. The staff and other volunteers as soon as we arrived were incredibly welcoming and kind. The facility Is lovely all of the aviary's are amazing. The housing really feels like home once you are settled in. The managers are incredibly accommodating and will help with anything you need. They are super nice to work for and make the experience even better. The work is a lot some days but very fun, engaging and rewarding to see the birds thrive. Working with macaws is a dream I never thought was attainable I'm so beyond grateful for the experience. We Love MRN!!

I will forever cherish the month I spent at MRN. It was an incredible experience and I had the best time. I met a bunch of awesome people and had a blast working with those amazing birds. The staff is amazing, the site is amazing and I was lucky enough to be there with a bunch of lovely volunteers who made every day a lot more fun then I imagined. Living in the jungle is definitely is not a 5 star hotel experience but it is such a surreal experience to be surrounded with everything the jungle has to offer. I would do this again in a heartbeat and would absolutely recommend it to everyone

What a wonderful place to work at... Great leadership, fantastic volunteers, and the macaws are naughty but so cute. I have a new appreciation for those beautiful creatures. Not to mention the amazing location that MRN is situated in. Punta Islita will always have a special place in my heart. Another life changing experience with Worldpackers...

This was my first solo traveling experience, at first I was scared about going in this place by my self, but as soon as I was there I felt a part of the group and in a couple of days I felt like home. Having the possibility to see amazing animals as the Macaws and being able to help them is gonna be unforgettable. The job is for the most physical, but I never found it boring or excessive, the early wake up time was not a problem, I had some really fun time while working. Obviously the best part was the people. I've met so many interesting people who taught me a lot and changed me for ever.
