Honestly the best volunteering program I have ever done. I had never been to Cairns and I got to discover so much about the Great Barrier Reef, the marine life & conservation methods, and of course got to meet the most wonderful program managers.

The carers were incredibly warm and welcoming. There are a variety of very very cute animals with new arrivals all the time. I loved doing both the wild animal care (mostly the non stop milk bottles!) and also the bits around the farm. I had my own lovely bedroom and we were fed like kings every night!
Overall an unforgettable experience!
Highly recommended
It was hands-on, hard work and very satisfying. The highlight of each day was watching the keepers distribute the new enrichment items and observing and noting how the orangutans interacted with them. I was moved to tears!
Our programs start from only for handful of dollars a day with accommodation and meals included. You’ll also get free unlimited changes to your trip!
