I had my first volunteering experience with worldpackers at the hostel. I've felt welcomed since the moment I arrived. I had a great time and made lots of friends, both among the staff and the volunteers. The tasks weren't difficult or demanding at all, and the shift schedules were always respected. I had plenty of free time to relax, socialize, and explore the city and its surroundings. I'm truly grateful for this amazing experience. Thank you guys, I'll miss you, and I'm definitely coming back to the hostel! I would totally recommend this experience to other Worldpackers ❤️

I couldn't have asked for a better first volunteering experience❤️ Thankyou to Gabi and all the staff for making me feel so welcome and being so positive and caring. I was on reception and bar, and the tasks were super manageable ( I did go in the low season so shifts might be slightly busier in summer). Hours were always respected, and they are super flexible if you want to ask for a certain shift or day off in advance! The room and beds were very comfy,the hostel truly felt like home and the location is unbeatable! I made friends for life and I'll definitely be back to Porto and to the hostel❤️

Volunteering at the hostel was a lovely experience. I spent one month there working at the bar. The job was easy, it is 5 hours, 5 days per week. Our job is to help the receptionists with the bar and keep the kitchen and lounge clean. The reception team is amazing, Ari, Hugo, Lucas, Pedro, Diana, and Gabi are always there to help you with whatever you need. I would suggest letting the volunteer team do their laundry for free once a week at the hostel. If you are thinking about volunteering in Porto, I would absolutely recommend the hostel. I met lovely people from all over the world there.

The hostel was my first volunteering experience ever, and I would definitely recommend it! All the people from the staff were very the hostel and chill and the manager, Gabi, was so kind and always available to accomodate our needs while organizing the shifts. The hostel is very the hostel and cozy, and in the perfect position to explore Porto :)
