Spend some quality time on our small family-run organic farm in Italy

Had a great time while I was there! At first, I was thinking of staying two weeks, but then managed to stay four, which I did not regret at all. I felt welcomed by the hosts and by Guido's family, the meals were nice (mostly pasta) but, if you wanted something more elaborate, you could just ask or propose and give a hand - there is enough flexibility. During my days off, there was total freedom to go wherever I wanted, which is great, because you stay 5 min. away from Carruba train station, which then will take you almost anywhere you want - the host will gladly give you suggestions :)

My first experience with World Packers was truly incredible. Guido and Jenny welcomed us with open arms, and we shared many meals, stories, and, most importantly, laughs together. The work wasn't hard, and we always got to enjoy the fruits of our labor (literally!). After long days of work, we were greeted by Jenny and their two wonderful kids, who had incredible personalities and always wanted to play with us. Guido's parents were also amazing and welcomed us into their beautiful home. If you're looking for a fantastic experience, this is it!

Our stay at Guido's farm was our first Worldpackers experience and was absolutely fantastic. We really enjoyed helping out around the farm, and the family is very lovely. We got to try traditional Sicilian foods (Guido's cooking is stellar) and your stay is well cared for. Highly recommend this experience, and we can't wait to go back!

My stay at Guido and Jenny's farm was my first volunteering experience – and it was truly wonderful. I didn't know what to expect, but any expectations would've been more than met. The work was varied, and I learned a lot about farm life in Sicily. I felt very welcome, and the kids were absolute sweethearts. Some tasks were physically demanding, but the stunning views, Mount Etna, and the results of the work made it all worth it. I highly recommend staying here and would love to come back one day. Thanks again for everything! :)

It has been a pleasure to have Luisa as part of the family for three beautiful weeks. The kids, especially Agnese, liked her very much. A big thanks for all your help in the garden, we are really grateful for that. It’ll be hard now to get by without you delicious muffins… All the best and see you next time!
