Voluntourism Itineraries
There are lot of people who give to this world. Most of these giving is more seen in material possessions. But the peace and pleasure of giving is achieved by reaching people in remote and isolated parts of the world, the pleasure of meeting them, the pleasure of sharing with them, the pleasure of understanding them, the peace of the people holding your hand and thanking you for your visit and above all learning, seeing and experiencing things for the first time in life. The peace of being part of the people’s life by self act in the place of visit. This at Help tourism, we call ‘voluntourism’, the act of meaningful volunteering through visit. At Help Tourism, we have found that a ‘volunteer tourist’ is like a candle, which burns itself slowly to give light to many unknown places of this world, where they have made a positive change through their visit.
