Program Details
Our programs are open to anyone with a passion to travel with a purpose. It is not mandatory for you to have any specific background in teaching or childcare development to join this program, but we may conduct a brief interview to help us understand the skills of our group so we can plan the scope of the project well. We usually have a list of pre-set activities planned but you are encouraged to bring your own ideas to interact and engage fruitfully with the children.
The application process is simple. Before you start, make sure to go through our informative Volunteer Manual and our Terms. Once you're ready, simply click "Book Now" and pay a deposit to reserve your seat. Our team will be in touch with you from that point on for further instructions and guidance with your application.

Accommodations
All the accommodations are in the heart of Stone Town, and are located within close proximity from each other. The furthest two points (Stone Town House and Park Hyatt hotel) are within 5 minutes walk from each other.
Our female travellers usually stay in our very own NomuHub Hostel while male travellers in a different one. The common area in our NomuHub Hostel can be used by all travellers.
We also offer 4 star and 5 star hotel upgrades with our accommodation partners, either in single room or twin-sharing basis. You may book these as add-ons in your booking process, but please note that confirmation of your reservation is subject to availability. During peak seasons in Zanzibar, it can be very difficult to secure a reservation so the earlier you book, the better.
Meals
There are many heterogeneous influences that are reflected in Zanzibar’s cuisine due to the multicultural nature that became a part of Zanzibar. The mixture of culinary traditions include Bantu, Arab, Portuguese, Indian, British and even Chinese cuisines.
The aim of this trip is to support the academic development and offer social care to orphaned children in Zanzibar. The aim of this trip is to leave a long lasting impression on the lives of orphans by providing them with much needed confidence and knowledge!
