Comprehensive, seamless, and easy! Leah has been awesome from the beginning. I had a bit of an atypical journey here, and she has accommodated me very well…so easy to work with. She's walked me through every step of the way and I am certainly enjoying my time in Thailand. Can't wait for more!

A fantastically worthwhile volunteer project - lots of kitten cuddles too! I spent a month at this amazing Wildlife Sanctuary in South Africa that I found through First Abroad's website. Naturally I was worried about going, it was my first trip away without my family and I was planning on doing it completely alone.. eek! Thankfully First Abroad were so welcoming and made me feel really at ease.. apparently lots of people were as nervous as I was (although I think that's just them being polite) They put up with my endless questions and prepared me so well before I went away. I found the info in my online account really helpful as well, especially the Kit List as I had no idea what to take with me! The Sanctuary itself was a wonderful experience, exactly what I was after. A really hands-on project with a huge variety of weird and wonderful animals that you're able to get up close and personal with. I was even lucky enough to hand rear a Serval Kitten (google them, THEY'RE SO CUTE!) I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. Was the best experience of my life!

Not worth the price Many things that were done throughout this program were available for free from the City of from our Wake Up! Hostel

First Abroad has been so dependable! I booked my trip with First Abroad and they have been nothing but helpful since that has happened, answering any questions I have quickly and thoroughly and I would recommend this company to anybody!

Awesome program and team! I haven't actually traveled yet but thus far the team that has been working to prepare me for the gap year has been there any time I have had questions or concerns. They are very professional in their responses to my questions and I am extremely excited to travel with this company!
