Orinoco Delta Lodge

Volunteers from all over the world, an opportunity to join our team at our Jungle Lodge. We have a wide range of activities you can participate in.

- Three meals a day. Meals are usually based on: rice, eggs, cornflour, cheese, plantains, black or kidney beans, and vegetables. We occasionally serve chicken, meat, and fish. We can adapt to your diet as long as it is reasonably within our capabilities and budget.

- We provide you with a private cabin in our garden with a private bathroom. You will occasionally have to share your cabin with other team members of the same gender if space becomes limited. Sharing will be for a maximum of 1 to 3 nights at a time. You will have your own space almost 100% of the time, as it is very rare that space will become limited.

- Work activities can vary but are not limited to the following: Bartending, tour guiding, housekeeping, painting, gardening, animal care (We have a parrot, 4 dogs, and 2 cats).

- You will be interacting with guests from all over Venezuela and the world.

- You will have plenty of free time to read, hang around in a hammock, take an afternoon or an early morning kayak ride. Life is slow in the Delta.

- This is a photographer's paradise.

- Great place for swimming and kayaking, and simply relaxing and enjoying nature.

- Satellite internet is available for a few hours every day, usually after 5pm. It is not very fast, but it is enough to send emails, use WhatsApp, and light use of social media.

- Our staff are very friendly and has been working with workwayers for the last 6 years. Nature Lives Here.

An incredible cultural experience interacting with nature, travelers, and the Warao indigenous community. - Our staff are very friendly and has been working with volunteers for the last 6 years.

O voluntariado em Orinoco Delta Lodge é extremamente confortável com uma a cabana individual e todas as refeições são boas, terá uma grande imersão na natureza, as atividades do voluntario são muito tranquilas, servir os hospedes no cafe da manha almoço e janta, mas isso ocupa quase todo o dia o que da poucos intervalos livre para descanso. Mas quando não ha hospedes poderá ter dias off. Terá oportunidade de fazer passeios em lancha, assim poderá conhecer mais sobre a cultura indígena Warao e biodiversidade da região. É uma experiencia incrível vale a pena. Recomendo a todos da comunidade.

Great host and great experience! The facilities are top tier, especially considering the natural surroundings. The hosts and working staff were really nice and helpful. A great opportunity to dive into the wild, learn about the Warao culture and get to share with international travelers. 100% recommended.

The Orinoco Delta Lodge is an amazing place that gives you a unique experience in the jungle and allows you daily interactions with the Warau people. The team is very tight nit and the accomodations are some of the best jungle cabins I've stayed in for South America. You have the opportunity to join tours most days or to explore on your own for that part of the river. Unfortunately I fell ill and wasn't able to stay for the whole time that we'd agreed but thanks to how the lodge is run I was able to meet some amazing guests that helped me out too.
