I had the most amazing time here - so much so I extended my stay!! I was incredibly lucky with the group of girls I was volunteering at the same time as - we all got on so well which really made the experience! I absolutely loved all my students I was teaching and built such close relationships that I will forever cherish! The food here is amazing, thanks to Mrs vann. I would absolutely recommend this to another traveller and I hope to return in the future!

This was my first time using Worldpackers and Volunteering and it was absolutely incredible! You live and work in a cosy village about 20-30 mins from Ha Giang city. The workload was so manageable, mainly teaching adults in the day with long breaks in between and then teach the children for their after school club. I have no teaching experience which was slightly daunting at first but after the first few days you get used to it. Everyone is so kind and welcoming which helps. Such a chilled out vibe I'd recommend it to anyone! Thank you so much I'll 100% remember this forever!

This was my first experience doing volunteer work, and I truly enjoyed it! I had the chance to meet amazing people, learn new things, and share my knowledge with both children and adults. Even though I was nervous at the beginning, I quickly felt comfortable thanks to the warm atmosphere and supportive environment. It was a meaningful and fun experience, and I'm really grateful to have been part of it. Thank you for this opportunity!

My experience here was absolutely incredible. Miss Quynh (and her whole family) welcomed me with open arms and taught me so much about their culture. She is a wonderful woman and makes sure everyone is included and feels good. I loved spending time with the locals and teaching English. The students were incredibly motivated and eager to learn. The kids were also wonderful to teach (especially the youngests). I 100% recommend this experience and cannot wait to come back. A big thank you to all the people I have met and bonded with :)

Thank you, Quen! I had a great time and will truly miss everyone—especially the amazing food! The village was peaceful and beautiful, the perfect place to relax. Papa and Mama were so kind and made me feel like part of the family. The locals were always smiling, and the students were wonderful. I'm glad I got to help with their English. The internet worked great, and everything left a lasting impression. I'd love to come back someday. Thank you again—it really felt like a home away from home.
