What thousands of Worldpackers are saying about it

Jiri

Japan

A great place to find different opportunities to meet new people, gain experiences whether in different languages or skill, just about a good site to be at for potential new places you may have not been in!

Daniel

Argentina

Because it is very good to find places to volunteer in a safe way, being able to see the comments of other volunteers and speak with them.

Li

Costa Rica

It is an excellent platform! Volunteering is a unique experience that every person should live at some point in their life.

Iris

Brazil

Worldpacker was always by my side, sending messages and saying 'Any problem, call us.' I didn't have any problems, but it's good to know that there is someone who will help us... Feeling more than protected is great! No words really, everything is perfect. And this won't be the first!!!!

Gabriel

Brazil

Worldpackers is beyond 'traveling while saving money.' It’s about feeling a little more about the place where you are, meeting people and sharing stories and experiences. Values that you carry for the rest of your life!

Roció

Argentina

It is a practical and safe app. In my experience, I have met many solo female volunteers who travel with the app, and most of us think that it is an excellent tool for safe travel.

Teagan

South Africa

Worldpackers is the reason I get to really experience new cultures. I get to live in different countries and meet the most amazing people.

Patty

Brazil

It was an incredible experience! I think this intermediary between those who want to receive and those who want to travel is perfect for getting to know the local culture. Get to know people, places, and things that you wouldn't know if you were on a tourist trip. Incredible! They are to be congratulated!

Niccolò

Italy

Because the staff is really kind. As soon as I had a problem, Jair didn't hesitate to contact me, and he was sincerely worried about it. And I think it is a great website. Thank you all, guys; you made me live one of the best experiences of my life.

Izabella

Brazil

Worldpackers has helped me a lot since I left home and decided to go backpacking, without this platform I don't know if I would have been able to get this far and have had all the experiences I have had <3

Frequently Asked Questions

Are plan payments monthly or yearly?

Yearly :) You only pay for your plan one time to get all of its benefits for the full validity of your plan.

Do I have to pay any more fees to use the site?

Absolutely not. You won’t be charged anything else at all during the time you use Worldpackers, no matter how many applications you send out, the number of trips you take, or how much content you consume

Some specific hosts request an extra collaboration fee to contribute to their institution/NGO, or to help with costs to make your experience even more rewarding. Make sure to discuss this kind of information with your host before confirming your trip. Learn more.

Will I be charged automatically after my plan expires?

Don’t worry. We’ll never renew your plan automatically, so you’ll only be charged one time. We’ll reach out to you when your plan is about to expire, and the decision to renew it or not is entirely up to you :)

How do the Couples/Friends plans work?

The Couples/Friends plans were designed especially for those who want to volunteer together with a travel companion. Only one of you needs to pay, and then you can invite your companion. You will then both be able to apply to and confirm trips together during the full validity of your plan. In other words, you will not be able to apply individually.

You can see more details about the Couples/Friends plans here and find all of our open positions which accept multiple travelers here.

What if I don’t get a response from hosts?

We work hard to make sure our community hosts are always responsive. However, they do receive a lot of applications, and they need to pick volunteers that are the best fit for their projects.

So to increase your chances of being accepted, make your profile nice and complete, earn certificates in our Academy, and apply to multiple hosts that you can identify with.

And of course, our support team can also help you to find new volunteer opportunities and give you more tips to increase your chances.

How do refunds work?

Our refund policy follows the same rules as our Worldpackers Trips cancelation policy. Click here to see all of the terms and conditions for our refund process.
