The Experience

Have you heard of Peneda-Gerês National Park? The interior of the Serra is what provides us with fauna and flora like nowhere else! We are a family-run project looking for people to help us show our region. We offer horseback riding, jeep, ATV, and buggy tours, and we need your help with the animals!

I was surrounded by nature, animals and different locals. Daniela is impeccable! I spent time with kids from an age group I had never experienced before; we interacted with each other and learned new things. I will definitely come back. 🩷

Mixed experience with the host. The tourist proposition is excellent, but remote management (without welcome or dialogue from the host for 30 days) affects the experience. There was a lack of proper training, maintenance on the jeeps (one door even fell on the road) and the team's patience with the tasks. The place has incredible potential, but it requires better organization, support, and appreciation of the volunteers.

O meu tempo a trabalhar no the host foi uma experiência inesquecível. the host é um local simplesmente maravilhoso, rodeado por paisagens incríveis. O trabalho era fácil e os cavalos são muito queridos, principalmente os poltros🥰. Fui recebida por um grupo incrível de pessoas que estavam sempre disponíveis para me ajudar e que me receberam de braços abertos desde o primeiro dia. Saio com o coração cheio e vontade de voltar! Recomendo completamente😁

O voluntariado em si foi muito interessante, as crianças são amorosas e gostam de brincar e conversar. Para mim que nunca cuidei de crianças foi algo novo e muito positivo. Vou levar o carinho deles comigo. Nas minhas folgas fiz ótimos passeios com a empresa da Daniela e também explorei as praias fluviais ao redor.
