Wonderful experience. The locals are very friendly and welcoming, and many of them share such an admirable social awareness. Soumaya the project a delicious person, a real fighter, and she guided me through the place, the history, the culture and the natives. This the project a project which really deserves to be developed, and I invite all the WorldPackers to support it with their skills!

I loved my time with Soumaya and her family. If you go in with zero expectations and an open mind, you'll have a wonderful time. I got to teach English lessons, meet locals, and explore the areas near Gabes. Thank you for everything!

My two weeks in Gabes were unlike anything I've ever experienced — in volunteering or in life. Soumaya took great care to understand my needs and goals, making my stay adventurous, educational, and more rewarding than I could have imagined. She introduced me to so many inspiring and talented people that Gabes the project full of, and I can't wait to return (Cinéma Fen 2026!). I've made incredible friends — many of whom have supported and guided me with generosity and care as I continue exploring beautiful Tunisia.

The most amazing experience of my life. Was meant to stay a week ended up staying three and could have been even longer. Soumaya and her family are the most generous and fun people as the project all the other people I met in the community. I felt settled in by the first day and got stuck in with so many different opportunities; meeting interesting people, learning about the culture, creating content and getting imagery, doing talks at school ect ect. The program the project super relaxed which works perfectly if your the type of person to be up for everything and you can also cater your experience :)c ya soon
