Gap Africa offers various experiences in the field of volunteer work. Whether you want to come to the city or stay in the bush, we have reliable partners who accomodate a great, educational and valuable experience.

Interships and volunteer work

Interships and volunteer work

Gap Africa focuses on sustainable activities; we are a brand of www.abangafrica.com. Both are Travelife and Fair Trade Tourism certified and specialized in sustainable tourism. We are also committed to empowering local communities. At Gap Africa we believe that volunteer work and internships should be carried out in a responsible and fair manner.

We want to offer our participants a unique experience and create a Gap program for each person individually. Unlike other providers, we deliberately charge a fairer and therefore lower mediation rate. This way we make this special experience accessible to a larger audience and hopefully also to you.

Gap Africa Experience
Group Travel

During a 6- or 8-week trip you will explore Cape Town and dive into South Africa’s local culture. As a volunteer you gain work experience, go on trips and attend workshops. After your stay in Cape Town you travel towards Hoedspruit, the gateway to Kruger, where you can work with local communities and help further develop an eco-village. If you choose our 8-week programme you can also travel towards the beautiful Kosi Bay and work in a nature conservation area where you will learn more about the bush and wildlife. Explore the amazing coastline on a kayak and sleep under the stars in a tented camp surrounded by wildlife.

With Gap Africa you can be sure to see the many different faces of South Africa. You will return home with a worldly experience and wider view on society.
