The pre departure booklet was good and informative. I really really love my program placement as well. The highlight of my volunteering experience was the kids. On flower day - all children put flowers on their heads which was very nice too. Accommodation and Meals both were very good. Our coordinator was also very helpful and always there to help. I would surely recommend Volunteering Solutions to friends and family.

The website is very informative with pictures which was helpful. The pre departure booklet was really helpful to get a first impression of what expected us here in Kenya. The staff of Volunteering Solutions was also very helpful. The project was really interesting. It was a good experience to teach the children and help out with sorting beans and washing shoes etc. The highlight was helping out the children and our trip to Mt. Longonot and Naivasha. Mercy is a very good cook I really enjoyed the meals. The accommodation was also nice and safe. I would definitely recommend Volunteering Solutions.

Reviews from the past volunteers on website was very nice. It was really easy to browse and obtain information about programs. Pre departure was extremely helpful. It provided with all the necessary information required for the program. I very much enjoyed working at my placement. Staff at the placement was very helpful and taught a lot of stuff. The placement provided with lots of hands on experience. The highlight of my volunteering trip was working at clinic and obtaining tremendous amount of hands on experience along with visiting the orphanage giraffe center and meeting other volunteers from all over the globe. Accommodation was clean and if anything needed to be fixed it was done immediately. Meals cooked by Mercy were amazing. They were healthy and delicious. I will surely recommend Volunteering Solutions to anyone who is looking for true healthcare volunteering experience.

I liked the website. The amazing thing was destinations as we can see the programs sorted by destination. The information booklet was very complete. The general service of the staff regarding the answers to my questions was very good and helpful. I enjoyed working at the project and placement where I had the possibility to work. My experience was very good I would repeat it if I have the possibility to do it. Regarding the accommodation we had stains falling directly on our beds for 3-4 nights due to the rains. The meals were good in quality and quantity. The coordinator was very helpful I would surely recommend Volunteering Solutions to others.
