Volunteer When You Travel

Joining a Community As Fascinating as You Are

There are a handful of legitimate doing good strategies when you travel. You can select providers like us who offer travel that leaves a smaller foot print. You can neutralize your travel emissions with carbon offsets. And you can donate to a worthy cause in the countries you visit.

Feeling pretty good so far? How about going for a real high and volunteering, for a day, a week or more.

Make it a core piece of your Asian travel experience or extend your travel to volunteer. From my perspective, there is no more immersive, off the radar experience than that.

Fourteen percent of American travelers have taken at least one volunteer vacation, according to a survey by Condé Nast Traveler magazine and MSNBC, with 55 percent saying they would like to take a volunteer vacation in the future. Looks like you will be in good company!

And we’ll help you make it happen.
