I really enjoyed volunteering in the host expedition. The location of the agency is perfect for explore and enjoy the beautiful city of Antigua. The job was really easy and we had a lot of free time Kelsey is amazing host, friendly and she was always available and ready to help us. All the stuff, the guides are super friendly and I had many good times with the other volunteers. Hiking the Acatenango volcano was an amazing experience, unforgettable... I really recommend to volunteering and being part of the host Family

This was my first volunteering experience and it was amazing! When I arrived, the host was under construction, but Kelsey (the person in charge of volunteers) make everything comfortable for us. She was always very caring about my well-being and that of the other volunteers. She is incredible:friendly, respectful, have great tips about the city and knows how to make everything fun. Work hours were respected, the tasks were clear and easy and had plenty of free time to explore the nearby attractions. I had the chance to hike the Pacaya, Acatenango and Fuego volcanoes. I do recommend this experience!

I had a great experience at the host. The schedules were assigned each week, and the tasks were well explained. The location was central and there's plenty to do around Antigua. I loved meeting and interacting with the travelers, guides, and staff. The volunteers became my family and I've made some unforgettable memories. The highlights for me were the camping trips to the volcanoes. It was a fun and challenging way to connect with nature. What really stood out was how professionally the tours were run. Huge thanks to Kelsey and the team! If you're thinking about volunteering here, just go for it!
