How do Worldpackers trips work?

As a member, you can contact as many hosts and travel safely as many times as you want.

Confirm your trip to enjoy all of the safety of Worldpackers.

Have a transformative experience and make a positive impact on the world.

If anything doesn’t go as planned with a host, count on the WP Safeguard and our highly responsive support team!
