Life Changing Experience... My GIVE trip to Tanzania was life-changing, challenging, and inspiring. The guides are knowledgeable and personable. The locals are kind, fun, and so eager to learn AND share. This program does an exceptional job of immersing you in the culture of your destination and teaching valuable lessons, while also incorporating some of the most thrilling adventures. I highly recommend this trip (or any GIVE trip) to anyone who is looking to travel responsibly, expand their horizons, and push themselves out of their comfort zone.

My GIVE trip to Laos was unforgettable My GIVE trip to Laos was unforgettable. From teaching the kids of Sop Chem English and cleaning/planting in the permaculture lot to learning about the culture of Laos, it was two weeks I’ll never forget. It was so eye opening to experience such a different way of life from that which is lived in the States. I gained a new perspective on self-respect and had an incredible time embarking on new adventures every day. I can’t wait for my future GIVE trips!

Unreal This was by far the best way I’ve ever traveled. The experiences and interactions with locals and guides are something you just won’t experience traveling without GIVE. I truly cannot explain how life changing of a trip this was for me and everyone else in my group, you seriously just have to experience it to understand

Life-changing I loved how GIVE partnered with locals. This maximized the impact, uniqueness, and authenticity of our time spent. I also really enjoyed the perfect combination of excursions and volunteer work. It felt very balanced throughout the days. This experience has changed the way I go about life.

A Caring Community The GIVE guides and volunteers made this trip so special. I was constantly surrounded by passionate and loving individuals who made me feel welcomed into the group. Throughout the trip, we met community members who were also so passionate about their work. You could learn so much from each and every one of them!
