I went to Chipangalli Wildlife Orphanage in Zimbabwe.
It was a very good and amazing experience.
The people was very friendly with me and they helped me with all things and they were patient with my English that isn't very good.
GoEco was a great suppurt too. They advised me on the visa process, tickets purchase, and were attentive to my trip and stay at Chipangali.
I'm very grateful for this experience, with Chipangali team and GoEco.

Amazing second trip in Africa
I’ve had the most amazing second trip through GoEco in South Africa this time at a wildlife conservation ranch. The wildlife ranch was amazingly run and so magical. Had the best time working with the wild animals and learning more about them.

We absolutely love hearing that this was your second trip with GoEco, first Zimbabwe and now South Africa, what an incredible journey! 💚✨ It’s amazing to know that your time at the wildlife conservation ranch felt so magical and well-run.
Working closely with wildlife and learning more about them is such a special experience, and we’re so happy you had the best time doing just that! 🦒🦓

GoEco Big 5 Volunteering
The GoEco Big 5 volunteer project at Siyafunda Research Station was fun, interesting, rewarding and educational. Ranger guides are very professional and informative. Living in a bush camp made it very immersive.

It’s wonderful that the ranger guides made such a great impression with their knowledge and professionalism, and that you enjoyed the immersive bush camp lifestyle. There’s truly nothing like being surrounded by nature like that! 🌍✨
Thank you for being part of this incredible experience and for sharing your feedback. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure someday! 🐘💚
I highly recommend WFFThailand and GoEco.
WFFT is a well-organized, well-run program that helps animals of many species thrive after they can no longer be released into the wild. Everyone working at the organization is dedicated and unfailingly helpful. This is a physically and emotionally challenging trip, and the accommodations are very basic. But what you get out of helping—for an organization that cannot exist without volunteers—is simply amazing. I highly recommend GoEco and WFFThailand.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and honest review! 🐘💚
We truly appreciate you sharing both the rewarding and challenging sides of the experience. Working with rescued wildlife is incredibly meaningful, but it definitely requires dedication, compassion, and a willingness to get your hands a little dirty! 🐾🌿
It’s wonderful to hear how much you valued the team on the ground and the important work being done to give these animals a safe place to recover and thrive. Volunteers like you play such an important role, and we’re so grateful you chose to be part of it.
Thank you as well for recommending GoEco, it means the world to us! We hope the memories, the animals, and the impact you made will stay with you for a lifetime. ✨🌏
Maldives Turtle Sanctuary
The whole experience was fantastic. The organisation, communication and preparation were clear on GoEco's side. I felt able to ask questions if need be but most information had been covered through the meetings and information packs I had received. At the project I felt like I was making a difference and the staff there provided me with extensive information regarding the work they do and how to fully engage with them and the wider community. I really appreciated the whole experience. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this lovely review! 🐢💙 We are so happy to hear that you had such a meaningful time at the Maldives Turtle Sanctuary. It is great to know that you felt prepared before arriving and that the experience on the ground was both engaging and impactful.
Helping protect sea turtles while connecting with the local team and community is something truly special, and we are thrilled you got to be part of it.
Thank you for choosing to volunteer with us in the Maldives and Sri Lanka, and for sharing your experience. 🌊✨We hope the memories (and the turtles!) stay with you for a long time!

First of all the people i met along the way became like a second family to me and it was amazing spending time with all the people our guide was amazing and so was the staff, secondly i learnt so much about wildlife that i didn’t know before and by the end of the trip i could identify most animals and genders of the animals with ease. It was an absolutely amazing experience being with such amazing people and being in the wild connected with nature, i highly recommend it to everyone.

We absolutely love hearing that the people you met became like a second family, that’s one of the most special parts of these experiences! It’s also fantastic that you learned so much about wildlife and can now identify animals (and even their genders!) like a pro by the end of the trip. That’s seriously impressive! 🦒🦓
We’re so happy you had such a meaningful time in the wild, connecting with nature and sharing it with such great people. Thank you for recommending the experience you had in Kenya, it truly means the world to us!
We hope the memories (and your new wildlife skills!) stay with you for a lifetime. 🌍✨
First time volunteering & happy with the whole experience!
This was my first time volunteering and I was very pleased with it overall. As a 60-year old I wondered about fitting in as these programs tend to attract younger people, but I felt I proved up to all the tasks required of the program and made a few new friends in the process.
I would definitely do another volunteer project through GoEco; their communication and support was great throughout.
And my advice to anyone interested in volunteering? Do your research and understand what is expected of you, but mainly just go for it because they are memorable experiences in so many ways!

One World All Grateful
Traveling half way around the world to volunteer effort, time and energy on marine conservation takes trust. GoEco delivered, far exceeding any preconceived expectations and hopes we had before arriving on Naifaru. The entire team provided thorough support, training and guidance so that we could participate, contribute and perform to our utmost potential. We left with a tremendous sense of achievement, accomplishment and countless unforgettable memories.

Go Eco review for volunteering in Malawi
Go Eco review
As a slightly older volunteer (in my fifties) I was a bit nervous about what it would be like to volunteer abroad but I need not have worried. The Go Eco team were very supportive in the lead up to the trip and checked in with me whilst I was away as well as when I got home.
I received such a warm welcome on arrival and was helped to sort out my phone with a sim card so I could use it whilst away. The programme itself was so well organised; varied and interesting and the staff and other volunteers were friendly and helpful.
Everything about the whole experience was wonderful, from caring for the animals to the food and accommodation. I could not have had a better time. My only complaint (and it is a big one) is that the time went by in a flash and I wish I had gone for longer!

ReefCI is passionate about nature and conservation. The leaders were knowledgeable and friendly. If you love to dive, and "dive with a purpose," this is the trip for you. Many invasive lionfish were captured and the on-site chef prepared them deliciously! It is an enlightening experience to spend a week without internet or cell service. Easy to bond with fellow volunteers!

Volunteering with amazing animals and people
I volunteered at the Walkabout wildlife sanctuary in Australia. I took part in the daily caring for the animals which include cleaning enclosures, food preparation, maintenance work and other kinds of work to make the life of the animals better. It was very hard and exhausting work but at the end of the day it was all worth it because you get to be close to beautiful animals and nature. You learn valuable things about it all, and you get to work with the most dedicated people, people who loves the animals so much that they spend their free time to care for them as well. I would highly recommend this place.

Katja, what a beautiful reflection - thank you!
Volunteering at the Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia is definitely hands-on and physically demanding, but as you said, it’s all worth it when you’re working so closely with incredible native wildlife 🌿
Your words perfectly capture the heart behind wildlife volunteering. Thank you for being part of it we’re so happy you experienced that passion firsthand. Thank you for your heartfelt recommendation!

From start to finish I received incredible support - they provided detailed information, worked with me to select a program that would be a good fit and were responsive to all my questions before and during the experience.
