Reviews

Lissy Entwistle, June 2008
Good support once out there. Good to have someone to help arrange trips and activities once out there. helpful to have a kit list and orientation of what to expect before left the UK.

Gaynor Hogarth, 03/09/07 - 30/09/07 
- Embrace the programme and have a go at everything, really maximise your time there and pack everything in.
- Ask loads of questions about conservation and about the animals, it's all so interesting.
- Pack a variety of clothes, footwear etc as the weather is pretty varied.
- Mobile phones work, even in camp, and there is an internet connection so it is easy to stay in touch with friends and family.
- Watch out for the spiders!
