The Camping has a great location, close to supermarkets and bus stops, you can take bus 21 and get to Amsterdam central station, there you will be close to the camping's main attractions such as: restaurants, museums, churches, parks, fairs and popular markets.The cuisine is incredible!I was very well received by Arnold and Mateo, who were always kind and attentive to all the volunteers' needs.The work is calm for those who understand that it is a camping trip, the tasks are divided so that everyone can have a clean and comfortable place.For those who like the camping in nature vibe, it's perfect

I had a life changing and a wholesome experience that I will never forgetin the camping. Despite the cold weather, rainy days, also considering that it was my first time camping ; I never had a dull moment. I am grateful for the wholesome people I have met along the journey. It made the work more easier and fun :) I am super appreciative for this experience. I was privileged to gain new skills, more knowledge and last but not least, my own personal development growth. Thank you Arnoud and Elias 😇 I wish you all the best and looking forward to seeing the end results 😊

It was a really good experience. I enjoyed my time there, Only working a few hours, the campsite is really close to the camping, you can take a bike. Arnoud (the host) is a nice guy. No complains, no issues. FIVE STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had the opportunity to connect with people of different parts of the world, and i feel at home.

It was such a good experience. The days off were kept and the work was done on time. Elias and Arnaud are always ready to help. Very happy to have met them and that Arnaud was able to try the mate and alfajor, we left him a little piece of Uruguay there. You will find a campsite that improves and grows day by day. I recommend 100% 🤘.

I really liked my experience at the campsite. Arnold is a super nice person, he is always there to help and make you feel at home. The activities are varied and so are the schedules, they respect your days off and you will only work the scheduled hours. It is in an amazing location where you can use bicycles and go to the centre of Amsterdam without any problems. I really enjoyed it and I recommend this experience!

My experience was really amazing, I been sharing the campsite with really amazing team, working with different people around the world, the owner provides you a bicycle to move when ever you want, is very usefull in Amsterdam. The work hours have been respected all the time and you have opportunity to learn how works a campsite from inside. I would like return once the campsite is completely finished.

It was amazingly good to have you here as well. I think a very good nickname for you would be 'the silent power' cause you were always ready to go on and take action. Thanks for being with us and I hope to see you some time in the future. Keep up the good work! Ciao amigo!

This experience was good to explore Amsterdam by bike and to enjoy life while camping, even though there were some difficulties with the place being still in progress. Overall the experience was nice and accessible even for someone that never went camping. Even though the communal kitchen was not ready we had good alternatives and we got reimbursed for our food expenses. The place is in the middle of Amsterdam and Haarlem so it's very easy to explore both and the Netherlands' countryside. Weather is finally getting good and it's all getting more enjoyable!

Personally I had a good time in the camping site, the manages Elias is a good guy who look after volunteers but the place is still in construction so will be nice if he had more help, at least someone in charge exclusively to deal with the customers and the volunteers coukd help. In that way Elias with a help from some volunteers could finish all the pending projects that he has on mind. If you apply for this volunteer be aware that you will stay in a tent around nature. Overall I recommend this place, definitely I would like to come back when is finished. Regards Arnoud and Elias, thanks

I applied for gardening, farming, and construction but found little work. I accepted cleaning and reception tasks, though they weren't part of my role. The manager, Elias, was hostile, yelling over small mistakes. He gave vague instructions, and expected perfection from new volunteers as if they had the experience of those who'd been there for a month. He even banned bikes, though we later negotiated their use. I left abruptly, feeling the situation wasn't worth it, I was giving more than I was receiving. The schedules are disorganized, one day 5 volunteers working, the next day just 1.

First off, I'm not sure why the ratings of this experience are so good, It's one of the worse experiences you could get in worldpackers. The host is absolutely abusive to proactive people, any kind of interaction (except when you obey him) will lead to some kind of angry answer and destructive comments. The infrastructure is poor and it's still constructing (the manager does NOT prioritize volunteer comfort at all, I'd even say he avoids it). And the tasks are not the expected. You will be asked (and forced) to clean bathrooms and do reception no matter what you applied for.
