Globe Aware trips are professionally planned and led. You do not need special skills or the ability to speak a foreign language. Globe Aware employees lay the groundwork prior to your arrival, accompany you during your volunteer vacation, and assist with transfers and departures.

The work project was meaningful, the young family that we installed the cement floor for were very grateful and needed the new floor, especially with a very young child in the house. It was also great to make the playground a safe place for the kids to play in. The repairs we did to the obstacle course apparatus will help the kids for a long time.

What I liked best was the diversity of activities for us to be involved in. We did cement floors, helped at the youth development centre and at the woman center. The cultural activities were well also wel planned.

The accomodations were excellent. Beautiful setting on the lake. Great food, service and friendly staff.

This was my third Globe Aware trip. They have all been very enjoyable and I look forward to doing another one!

Note on Safety:

You may come across travel alerts and advisories while researching Guatemala. These alerts have been in place for decades and are centred on areas well apart and away from our workplace location. Similar travel alerts exist for places in the United States to highlight areas where you should show special caution. The areas in and around Tikal are safe and well-travelled by tourists, including the town of our program site, which is in an area the State Department has deemed safe for travellers. We have never had any incidence of violence in all the years we have been operating. There is no way to eliminate all risks, though we feel confident recommending this area. Please get in touch with our office if you have any questions or concerns.
