At the hostel we were responsible for taking photos and videos for there social media pages. This experience enabled us to meet people from so many different walks of life including those local to Livingstone. Kim, our host, was so supportive and encouraged us to engage with the environment around us even though we were communicating virtually. She was always quick to respond to our messages and helped us whenever we asked. The whole staff of the hostel was very welcoming and friendly especially the reception staff. Would definitely recommend the hostel to other Worldpackers!

Heart broken . At first I found bestie and family , and desirable touristic activities . I gave my whole ! as always… Then, all of a sudden , out of the blue - the mood changed . I was a party promoter. Despite me providing free drinks, snacks, activities and all best of vibration - One sunny morning - boss decided was not proper anymore ?! No respect for some curtesy of knowing what was misunderstood by me . Was kicked out ! without even having the courage to look into my eyes while explaining kindly the wrongs of my doings. I was dammed by a group , and never got to know the reason .

We are sorry that this didn't work out for both of us - however, after the third time of needing to discuss your behaviour, we felt like things just weren't changing and we had too many complaints.

Livingstone and Zambia as a country is such an amazing place go to !! The experience with the hostel was unique and I would do it all over again. It was so much fun. You can meet a lot of locals, international travelers, make so many activities around Livingstone and have a nice stay at an really good Hostel. The staff is amazing and they become like a small family after one month! Will visit one day again for sure 😍 Can recommend for 100%

I had three weeks in the hostel and from start to end I felt at home. The staff at the hostel made me really comfortable and was always ready for a nice talk. The hostel is a great place for meeting locals and travelers at the same time. I can imagine even more when travel fully recoverd from covid. At the hostel I was working as a photographer. They gave me many opportunities to create photo's and explore the area at the same time. Thank you the hostel, I really enjoyed! Untill next time!

Our experience exceeded all expectations! We've met the most amazing people and many of those became our good friends. From the moment we were there we felt like a part of their team and the hostel became our new home. Since we were there soon after corona, there was not that many tourists and hence not that much work to do. But we still managed to find some interesting assignments. This place is a paradise in the centre of Livingstone, 15 min drive from Victoria's falls. We definitely recommend this program and if you don't want to volunteer just stay there, you will have the best time:)

Thank you Madame Kim, and the managers Marrius and Miss Faith. I wish that things will be back to normal soon and that everyone can get back to work.

I had such an amazing time staying at the hostel! I felt very welcome by every staff team member and in the lodge as a whole. I worked at the reception and bar and they were always flexible and understanding with my shift hours. Plus, Livingstone is a nice town and the Falls are such an incredible place to be close to. I would for sure recommend volunteering at the hostel! If you want to know more, feel free to send me a message!
