Explore the countries we call home. Each destination offers its own blend of culture, adventure and community, giving you meaningful ways for you to learn, connect and make an impact.
We at Go With Khaya strongly believe in creating lasting relationships with the people and projects we work with. This is how we source our volunteer projects, and how these relationships happen! Most programs we offer our volunteers are established by us, or we enter into a partnership to kickstart the concept of volunteering with these projects. In this way, we have intimate and thorough knowledge of our volunteer projects, and can send the right people to the right places.
Whether exploring the Southern Cape or journeying across Africa, we design group programs that create meaningful experiences for students and organised groups. Each trip combines adventure, cultural immersion and hands-on learning. By carefully curating every program, we ensure each group gains the most from their journey, connecting deeply with the people, places and communities they visit.

Netherlands
There is not one specific thing but many things that i enjoyed during my stay in South Africa. I actually enjoyed every single moment of the experience. The weekends away were also so good. I loved the project and the work we done.
Germany
To look at the different lives of people and children in the townships and compare them to others. To help the children and have fun with them and others. I really enjoyed Addo, the meals and the wildlife.
Spain
Feeding the penguins really was the highlight! And I never thought routine would be so much fun. All because of the adorable penguins! These creatures do bite, but it's easy to forgive them. Great service from Khaya Volunteer Projects, from booking to service while in Port Elizabeth.
France
spent an amazing month volunteering at SANCCOB Port Elizabeth with the African penguins. I learned so many new things about conservation and animal care while also improving my English every day. The SANCCOB team is truly wonderful and always supportive. I was warmly welcomed and felt very well integrated with the other volunteers, which made the experience even more rewarding. An unforgettable adventure that I highly recommend!
Canada
I stayed 2 weeks in Bambelela in June-July 2022. It was amazing! People there are so nice and we have plenty of monkey time. The tasks to do are easy but so helpful for them! An experience of a life! I’ll always remember my beautiful monkeys there! 🐒💖🐒💖

I enjoyed the weekend outing trips and tours that we went on with all the other volunteers including Jeff and Arlene. The company did well when arranging this. I also met so many nice people.
