To be honest, every single moment is worth it there. The family is so nice to everyone. They have a spacious accommodations and gardens. Most importantly they day a lot of good effort to help the community in different parts, either the school, or building community centers and more and more plans in the future.

I enjoyed my stay there, they offer lots of activities like going to hot springs, waterfall, safari, Mount Meru it's great! But as far as volunteering goes, we don't do farming or gardening, we go to school (I don't think it's really good to do that). I was disappointed because I signed up to do ecological and not social action. Also you have to pay $10 a day for food, that makes sense, but you also have to pay that money if you are gone on safari for a few days or something, I don't understand why you have to pay when you are not staying.

Dear Salome, thank you so much for your feedback, regarding to farming activities you signed for we took you to the garden first day and other day you started follow other volunteers how had signed to school and you told us you wanna do that, I getting confused now what is you intention?
Regarding to 10$ the money you paid it for buying food but also paying other bills,water electricity but ado we payed government tax for all you are day you signed for
Hopefully you understand

Overall I had a good experience. However, just know if you sign up for the farm or construction you are likely still helping with the school for the majority of your time. I would also recommend that if you are traveling alone, like myself, that you ensure other volunteers will overlap with you as this greatly improves your experience! Also contact the host regarding when you plan to travel to ensure that there is indeed work for you to do.

It's been an amazing experience! I really felt the connection with the environment and the people, and fell in love with it. James and his family will do their best to make you feel comfortable and like "at home".

Amazing and unforgettable experience! Thanks to James and his family, I really felt as a part of them. If you want to feel real Arusha and to make some social impact, this is the perfect place. …and when you arrive there, please don't be afraid of Rambo, he is just a big baby :)

My experience at the Kissiri house was incredible! Very nice place with all kind of things needed and lovely family, allways attentive and willing to help. I really felt welcome as one more in the house :) Also the projects to volunteer were very nice and I really felt that I was contributing to something good. Full flexibility to decide when and in wich project to help and also to organise the leisure trips. I am definetly looking forward to repeat!! Asante sana James and Kissiri family! :)
