Absolutely loved my time here <3 Cristina and Fabio are amazing, super caring and warm people - I really felt like I was apart of their family. The work is simple, and the working hours are respected. Cristina was very flexible about the off days aswell. I stayed longer than anticipated, since I just fell in love with the place. In total there were 8 volunteers, and all of them were such lovely people and I loved spending time with them after work. Special thanks to Thiago and Ana for being so welcoming :). I definitely recommend this experience!!

It was my first time using World Packers and I loved it!! I volunteered in Portugal and it was a natural and beautiful place What a lovely place for FARO. People are kind and animals are cute, so it's healing. My host was perfect. My host always has a good smile that makes me feel good in the morning. I was so happy while I was in Portugal. I don't think I'll forget it. I want to go to Portugal again🤗🤗🤗

This place is great! I enjoyed my time here and had a very relaxing stay. The people here are lovely and makes you feel very welcome. I found the work easy and the working hours were great I went in low season so there wasn't many guests or voulenteres, because of that I also ended up talking with Cristina about leaving a little early. She was very understanding and we agreed upon a departure date, so I ended up leaving after a week instead of two I would recommend going in low season for a more relaxing time, but i could imagine there would be more to do in high season Thanks for having me<3

Alvor is a little paradise on earth. Cristina and Joaquim are welcoming and nice people. The accommodations were more than enough and we had access to everything listed on the app. Overall the volunteers are amazing people and we're glad to have made really good friends during our stay. Working hours are always respected and the work is not too hard but physical. You must have in mind to be flexible because you usually don't know what work you'll be doing until the day of. Cristina is such a good host and we will have great memories of Alvor and how welcoming her and her family were to us.
