your journey

When choosing to volunteer in South Africa there are many diverse opportunities available to you, depending on your skills and comfort requirements we endeavor to place you in communities that are most suited to both you and the project. Projects vary in location, culture and focus some are situated in remote and challenging areas where access to running water and electricity is not available, ablutions are basic and accommodation humble, while others are based in suburban South Africa with better access to basic comforts, such as internet, shops and water, either way your contribution skilled or unskilled will be appreciated and far reaching.

All the projects working with VSA have been verified and are continually monitored and encouraged to ensure a positive effect on the communities in which they operate. Your journey could take you to one project for the full duration of your stay or you may choose to explore the coast line and work on a few different projects while visiting the magnificent sites of SA. Most places are accessible by bus or taxi, departing from either Durban or Cape Town international airports. The alternative is to arrange a private pick up via VSA or the project directly.


30 Day Journey - Durban to Cape Town

This is a fully guided all inclusive ethical travel experience that combines meaningful volunteer work with adventure and local site seeing. The route has been carefully thought out to cover some of South Africa’s most spectacular country side as well as offer you many diverse volunteering opportunities. We will take you off the beaten track to places mostly known to locals as well as visit some of the more famous tourist attractions. The actual itinerary will vary depending on the size of the group and the time of year.

Please contact us directly to discuss the options.
