Short-Term Volunteer Community Building Projects in Honduras

Participating with GVI not only allows you to work on programs assisting disadvantaged communities or endangered ecosystems but it also offers wonderful opportunities to travel in the local area in your down time or further afield either before or after your program. Below is some information on trips and travel options in Honduras.

Included Side Trips

Included in your package is a half-day guided adventure activity, which could be a guided tour of the Copán Ruins, horseback riding, hiking in the surrounding areas around Copán or swimming in the hot springs.

Further Travelling Opportunities

Whilst visiting Honduras, if your time and funds allow, then there are a whole range of opportunities for discovering more about Honduras. Possibilities include heading to the famous Bay Islands of Roatan and Utila for some of the most spectacular and best value diving in the world. The beautiful colonial town of Gracias is a great place to visit or perhaps some bird watching in the Lago de Yojoa. Easy trips can also be made from Honduras into Guatemala, Belize or Nicaragua, providing ample opportunity for exploration.
