We are open!
2023/2024 trips
The world has reopened after the Covid-19 pandemic and VoluntEars trips are now running as normal again.
Our destinations no longer require quarantine on arrival for fully vaccinated foreigners. So we are delighted that our trips have all now restarted.
What will be different?
You will need to show a covid-19 vaccination certificate or negative PCR test result if you’re not vaccinated. Some airports still require masks to be worn during stopovers.
VoluntEars staff will explain everything to you before your trip, using BSL or ASL.

We want you to book your trip with peace of mind. All bookings are covered by our covid-19 guarantee. Please click this link to find out more.
