The Experience

You will help prepare travelers going to hike Acatenango and Fuego Volcano! You will let them know the best gear to use and make sure they are prepared for this adventure. Additionally you'll get to greet them when they return, collect gear. We use tupperware and recycle 2L bottles and an eco filter system to provide water and we will need help cleaning and managing this. If you join us be prepared to work the day you arrive. We run a tight ship.

This was our first experience volunteering and we absolutely loved it! the host gives you easy manageable work and the expectations are very clear from the start. Kelsey is very approachable and helpful - she responds to WhatsApp messages quickly and appreciates your efforts. Whilst in Antigua you can do so many fun things with your free time such as visit Hobbitenango, go to museums and hike. The people we meet here will be our friends for life - the age range of volunteers was perfect for us. There's so much nightlife in Antigua to enjoy!

It was amazing. The work was simple and the hours were respected. There was good communication between staff and volunteers. Getting to do the free volcano tours was such a treat. I fully recommend to anyone considering the position

I honestly don't know what to do add here that hasn't already been said by other Worldpackers but the host is a sensational place to stay! Antigua is a beautiful city, all of the other volunteers made working and social hours so much fun and Kelsey is a very flexible host! It goes without saying that the highlight was the hike to Fuego, reaching the summit and seeing the volcano erupt regularly was outstanding but it was very enjoyable seeing other visitors return from their hikes and seeing what they made of the experience too, I highly recommend the host!

I had an amazing time volunteering at the host! The hosts were friendly, supportive, and clear with communication. The tasks were fair and well-organized, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. The space is clean and comfortable, and I loved connecting with other volunteers. I also had plenty of free time to explore.
