The experience

Experience community - led travel in the heart of himalayas.
That’s exactly why we created goVOLUNTEER - a volunteer experience for travellers who want to stay longer , live deeper , and belong while exploring India.
goVOLUTEER is goSTOPS’ vibe-first volunteer program for travellers who want culture, community, and connection and not just a place to crash.
You host. You create. You connect.
We handle the rest.
