Venezuela is an excellent place for action. It has South America's largest lake, third-longest river, and the highest waterfall in the world, making it an ideal destination for watersports. It is also a great choice for animal lovers; home to jaguars, armadillos and some of the largest snakes in the world.

Organising activities, visiting children in hospital or helping decorate classrooms will make a huge difference to one of Venezuela’s friendliest but most deprived communities. The project is based in the stunning Gran Sabana national park.
Help ensure the beauty of La Gran Sabana national park lives on. Get involved with projects that protect the monkeys, toucans and other wildlife, and pass on your enthusiasm for conservation to local children.
Put your love of children and horses to a worthy cause. Work with disabled children as they learn to ride and care for horses, and watch how their confidence increases. You can improve your own riding at weekends, too.
Learn about and help preserve the fascinating culture of the Pemon Indians. Work on projects set up to protect their beautiful surroundings, teach English to native tour guides or help build facilities.
Use songs, games and anything else your imagination comes up with to make vital English lessons fun. Relieve some of the pressure on the schools by helping with homework, conversation, sports coaching, computer classes or music tuition.
Discover the real Venezuela. Your experiences will include: Learning Spanish, sea kayaking, exploring the paradisiacal beaches, searching for anacondas, horseback riding, visiting the tribes of the Orinoco Delta, trekking through the mountains - and more!
