I had an amazing time with this team! Marcello, Angela, Sara, Ale, Claudia – everyone was incredibly kind, helpful, full of energy, and always ready with a hug (which meant a lot to me, being far from family). I got to improve my Spanish and build great friendships with my new Argentinian and Colombian "hermanos" – and also with friends from Spain/UK/NZ and a lovely girl from Switzerland. The only tough part was the night shifts, since I usually go to bed early – but I survived, so all good!

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue inolvidable. El staff es muy amable y siempre está dispuesto a ayudar. La ubicación es genial, en pleno centro de Catania. El ambiente es super social, ideal para conectar con gente de todo el mundo. Compartí el día a día con personas increíbles, con quienes construí amistades que me llevo para siempre. Sin dudas es un lugar al que volvería sin pensarlo dos veces. Gracias por todo! <3

I had a great time at the hostel. The hostel is located right in the city center, which made everything super convenient. I can recommend this place 100%. Big thanks to Ale for being there 24/7. I'm really happy about the experience and grateful for the opportunity to meet so many lovely people in such a short time. Everything felt very relaxed and easygoing, creating a really warm atmosphere. The only thing I personally found a bit challenging were the night shifts—but aside from that, it was a truly amazing experience, and I'm very thankful I got to be part of it!

I highly recommend!!! My experience was absolutely amaaaazing! I met, lived and worked with people who became my family. I was very well received and the space of the Hostel is beautiful! The night shift can be difficult for those who have trouble with the night or can not sleep later during the day. For me it was a bit difficult, but knowing that it was only for a period and with all the other amazing sides of being there, I thought it was really worth it!! I was really happy to have participated in this volunteering, I will never forget Catania and the friends I made there.

I highly recommend volunteering at the hostel💛 They made one of my first volunteering experiences so memorable and special. I was immediately welcomed with open arms and a big smile. The team is always there if you need anything and they make you feel home and part of the hostel family all the time. Also sharing a room with the other volunteers is really fun. Special thanks to Alessandro, Clara, Brenda, Tomas and Martha, I enjoyed every moment with you and I hope to return soon. I miss everyone of you, my AMIGOS💗🫵 Grazie mille!!

Volunteering here was an unforgettable experience! The staff and volunteers made me feel like family, even without speaking any Italian (Especially Alessandro, Sara and Claudio). The tasks were easy, the rooftop bar was a bonus, and the hostel's central location made exploring Catania super accessible . I was lucky to be there for the Feast of Saint Agatha, truely a highlight experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a welcoming and vibrant place to volunteer in Sicily. Grazie mille!

This was my first experience as a travelling volunteer through Worldpackers, I loved my time at the hostel. The staff is very welcoming and resourceful, good vibes and funny. The first few days would be an adjustment as any new environment, do not be hesitate to ask questions or for more details on the assigned tasks during one of the work shifts. Also, plan your free days accordingly if you want to visit a town near by, talk to the other volunteers and staff if needed to maximize your free time. Remember to eat veggies and fruits! Catania will always have a place in my heart. <3

My time at the hostel Elephanti was an experience that had its ups and downs. It was my first Worldpackers trip and when I arrived everyone was very helpful but as time went on I noticed some issues like organization, respect of schedules, overall support, and the lack of personal connection with the other volunteers. I did meet lots of people from around the world and am very grateful for some of the experiences I have had during my time in Catania. I recommend that anyone thinking of volunteering here learns some basic Italian beforehand because it was a lot harder for me than I expected

I really enjoyed my stay in the hostel!! The staff members are incredible friendly and super understanding. All the tasks were well-organized and fairly easy, leaving us plenty of time to explore Catania and nearby cities. I'm truly grateful for this experience and for all the amazing people I met along the way !!🫶🫶
