United States
Royal Mile has such an an amazing atmosphere. Coming back to the hostel truly felt like I was returning home to my family. Everyone is always there for you and I can only hope to have a similar experience in other hostels I visit!
Australia
The perfect place if you want to have a really chill time, the island is beautiful and quiet. I had an amazing time learning about gardening and enjoying the outdoors. Lots of free time too to explore :) The hostel attracts the most wonderful guests
Netherlands
My time with Giuliano and the rest of the family was great. The work is good and after work you will have enough time to do a big hike in the mountains. I am really thankfull for the experience in Val di Sole!
Our community has more than 9 years of history, more than 140.000 reviews exchanged, and hosts in more than 140 countries.
Our team reviews each and every new host before approving them to join our community, and we keep an eye on them to guarantee their engagement and the quality of their exchanges.
Confirm your trips and make a formal agreement with your host including dates, activities, hours, and benefits.
If anything doesn’t go as you agreed to on our site, our team can help you to find a new host or reimburse you for accommodation in a hostel. Learn more.
Here to help you before, during, and after your exchanges, 7 days a week in three languages.
Yearly :) You only pay for your plan one time to get all of its benefits for the full validity of your plan.
Absolutely not. You won’t be charged anything else at all during the time you use Worldpackers, no matter how many applications you send out, the number of trips you take, or how much content you consume
Some specific hosts request an extra collaboration fee to contribute to their institution/NGO, or to help with costs to make your experience even more rewarding. Make sure to discuss this kind of information with your host before confirming your trip. Learn more.
Don’t worry. We’ll never renew your plan automatically, so you’ll only be charged one time. We’ll reach out to you when your plan is about to expire, and the decision to renew it or not is entirely up to you :)
The Couples/Friends plans were designed especially for those who want to volunteer together with a travel companion. Only one of you needs to pay, and then you can invite your companion. You will then both be able to apply to and confirm trips together during the full validity of your plan. In other words, you will not be able to apply individually.
You can see more details about the Couples/Friends plans here and find all of our open positions which accept multiple travelers here.
We work hard to make sure our community hosts are always responsive. However, they do receive a lot of applications, and they need to pick volunteers that are the best fit for their projects.
So to increase your chances of being accepted, make your profile nice and complete, earn certificates in our Academy, and apply to multiple hosts that you can identify with.
And of course, our support team can also help you to find new volunteer opportunities and give you more tips to increase your chances.
Our refund policy follows the same rules as our Worldpackers Trips cancelation policy. Click here to see all of the terms and conditions for our refund process.
