Volunteering with the hostel feels like joining a new family. The hosts and staff are incredible, and the atmosphere is uplifting. Many guests extend their stay due to the hostel's magic and Livingstone's charm. Tasks are flexible, with various weekly activities. Interacting with diverse guests improves your English. I've seen wildlife without going on a safari. the hostel, known as the best hostel in Zambia, is undoubtedly the best in Africa. I hope my contributions made a difference. Thanks Kim, for this opportunity. I'll return with my family to visit. Zikomo, Tsalani bwino my friends!

I thank Kim for the opportunity, and the entire the hostel team who certainly remained in my heart, I hope to return and meet them again. Zambia is a memorable place! Zicomo Muzangos <3

I truly cannot describe the generosity and kindness of the people at the hostel. The work is super achievable and very fun to do. There are also loads of local people to get to know, so you can properly engage in the local culture!! I loved my time here and only hope to come back as soon as possible. Zikomo Kim and John.

This is an amazing experience! Your tasks as a social media content creator is to take photos at your own leisure. There is a bar and restaurant, grocery store, and a kitchen, so you have everything you need! The pool and lobby are lovely. Thank you for everything!

I was lucky to get a last minute volunteer opportunity at the hostel and I truly loved it! Kim is a great manager and a very welcoming and helpful person. All staff members are super kind, as are Zambians in general. I didn't really work in shifts, but Kim communicated her expectations very well. The Vic falls are one of the most beautiful I've ever seen! If you get the chance, visit them also with the full moon.

I'd highly recommend the hostel to other Worldpackers. The team is great and the work that you do is flexible to your skill sets. the hostel supports a local orphanage so my main big task was coordinating their Christmas lunch and gifts for the children, which was incredible to be a part of. My hours were pretty self directed, but there was always someone around for support. I would love to come back someday! Zikomo Jollys

Volunteering at the hostel was amazing; the place is beautiful and incredibly cozy! Everyone is extremely kind here. You have complete freedom to explore the cities and tours, and they make you feel very comfortable with your daily tasks. It's a hostel where you not only meet the hostel but also experience local culture and locals! You can truly immerse yourself in the country's culture. Livingstone in Zambia is wonderful, an incredible city with very friendly people and lots to do! Cherish every moment here; you won't regret it! And Zikomo for everything.

This experience was unreal and better than I could have ever imagined! Kim, along with everyone at the hostel, made my first ever trip with World Packers a very hard one to beat. Communication was prompt and efficient, and everything discussed and agreed upon was followed. My time at the hostel was truly life changing. I helped out where needed; either behind the bar, communicating with the team, or giving information out to guests. I made lifelong friends, experienced a new culture and had once in a lifetime experiences in Livingstone. I can't give enough thanks for this opportunity!!

My boyfriend and I stayed at the hostel for around 2 weeks and had a great time! Kim (and the rest of the staff) is super nice, and told us a lot of times that the most important thing was for us to have fun. Unfortunately, we didn't have a Zambian business visa, so there were things that we weren't able to do, like work behind the bar. Our work was really simple and not very time consuming at all: taking instagram pictures, decorating chalk boards in the morning and making sure the guests had a good time. It was a great experience and we are so grateful! Thank you to everyone at the hostel :)
