Combinations
GVI also offer various combination options to volunteers who wish to do more than just a standard volunteer programme. Some volunteers may want to work on similar programmes in several countries, others may wish to experience different types of programmes, or you may want to do both and enjoy different programmes in more than one country.
Our ‘Teach and Travel’ packages allow you to volunteer in different countries for a total of 3-6 months, safe in the knowledge that GVI will make the transition from country to country as seamless as possible. You can relax and enjoy the volunteer programmes without having to worry about getting from place to place. For those with less time available we also offer ‘Volunteer and adventure’ trips which combine 4 weeks of volunteering with 2 weeks of adventure. GVI will arrange your volunteer placement and the adventure activity will take place either during or after your volunteer experience finishes.
Our ‘Explorer’ options allow you to enjoy a mixture of different programmes and countries. Volunteers on these trips will arrange the travel/flights themselves, allowing you more flexibility and the option to build these worthwhile programmes into your travel itinerary. If you do not see a combination option that matches your requirements please do contact us and we will assist you in putting together something to suit your own personal requirements.
If you are looking for a really varied volunteering experience do take a look at our expeditions which combine adventure with training, remote locations and a variety of different projects.
