This was my first time volunteering on Worldpackers, I agreed 4 weeks but extended my stay because I enjoyed my time here so much that I didn't want to leave. The staff here are amazing and welcomed me in like family. They're all also very chatty which is great not only for making you feel right at home but for learning more about Vietnam, it's people, and it's culture. This is a REALLY social and busy hostel so it's very easy to meet and bond with other travelers. I've learned so much from this and gained a lot of new skills and confidence, so I can't recommend this position enough.

Thanks Charlie, we are happy to hear you enjoyed the time at Banana Tree with us and we really enjoyed having you with us. You did an awesome job hosting our regular events and were super friendly with all the guests — always smiling and spreading good vibes. Thanks for all your help, we’d gladly host you again!

I had such a great time at the hostel. Everyone in the team is so sweet, helpful and fun. The tasks are also really clear for every day and every week, which is nice if you want to plan your free time. And the hostel it self is just amazing. The vibe is super chill which attract chill guests. The events are really fun and working with the other volunteers is also really nice. It felt like working with one big family. Thank you so much for the great experience im really going to miss it ❤️

I loved my time at the hostel. This was my first volunteering position and I stayed one month. And I couldn't have asked for a better place to start. Your responsibility's and working hours are really clear. It's all organized so well and hosting the events is so much fun! Also the hostel is clean, cozy and extremely social! So you will meet lots of friends! Not just with the other travelers but the local staff too. And that is honestly the highlight. Everybody is so welcoming, sweet and funny. You will feel truly taken care of here! I would recommend this 100%!!!
