Nepal
I went to Nepal with travelteer in June and can't recommend it enough, Pokhara was unlike anywhere else I have been I thought I new Asia after my gap year in south east Asia I DID NOT, the culture was amazing and diverse, the wildlife was honestly insane (i thought rhinos were only in Africa oops). Pula the staff member was so enthusiastic i even felt pumped jet lagged on my first day and it was amazing to feel the help i was providing to a country that gave me such an amazing experience.

Sri Lanka
My time in Sri Lanka has been absolutely amazing. The coast 2 coast tour was definitely a highlight, ran by Camila. She does an incredible job, made the tour fun and was also a great support to anyone that needed it.

English development and tour
I spent 4 weeks in Sri Lanka, 3 volunteering and 1 week on tour. The tour was my favourite part, I can’t recommend it enough! Within a week I got to see and experience soo much of Sri Lanka, from climbing Sigiriya rock to Ella rock, surfing and so much more. Camila and Nalin were amazing on tour, they made the experience even better. All of the coordinators were great, they helped in any way they could but also bought their own energy to the house. The actual programme is great! I spent everyday teaching the children English, and creating fun and interactive lessons for each class. Dilanka is great she guides you through it but also gives you responsibility to take charge. Overall, the trip was the best thing I ever did, I had the most amazing time making memories and friends for life!

Once in a lifetime experience
Travelteer have provided me with an amazing trip involving a lot of different activities and experiences with a great bunch of coordinators. Bernie the house coordinator met us at the airport and since then she has been such a caring kind coordinator who taught me carrom and took me to Galle in her own time.

Where do i even start?
Where do i even start? On my first week with travelteer, i've had plastic surgery at galle hospital due to being elbowed in the face (not travelteer's fault), i lost my phone during a river safari, i forgot my wallet for the coast2coast tour and it's still one of the best experiences of my life. The staff are all amazing, especially Bernie who helped me settle in and taught me carrom. She also went out of her way to help me buy a new phone in galle even though she waited 3 hours in the hospital on the first week whilst i was getting stitches (sorry). Overall i've had an amazing time with travelteer ps bernie is the best :)

Sports development placement year
I had an amazing time in Sri Lanka doing their 4 month placement program doing Sports Development. The company gave great opportunities to immerse yourself into both the culture and the work. You were given the freedom to develop your skills in a foreign country and explore new methods of coaching that you may have not used before. The accommodation was nice but did feel cramped at times due to long durations of time spent there. It has a beautiful and convenient location and the area is very easy to navigate. It’s run very well and the staff are very helpful although things run a bit slower and are more spontaneous due to communication from so many party’s being involved in curtain aspects of the course. I would recommend this course as I anyone as I had an amazing time made lot of new friends and learnt so much about a country that had never previously been on my radar.

Tour & Textiles
I came out to Sri Lanka with Travelteer for 4 weeks. I started with the coast2coast tour. It was one of the best weeks of my life! It’s packed with amazing activities, picturesque sightseeing and it was a great way to meet some of the other people I’d be living with for the next 3 weeks. The whole experience was made even better by the tour guide Camila. She instantly made you feel at home and was so helpful and friendly. After the tour I volunteered on the textiles programme. It was a great opportunity to feel like you’re making a positive impact on some of the local women’s lives. I had enough freedom to come up with lesson plans and source material for projects. I’d spend every morning teaching women to sew and being able to see their progress from never having used a sewing machine to being able to sew garments was so special. The only bad thing is having to say goodbye to the people I met :(

My time with Travelteer in Sri Lanka
I’ve really enjoyed my time in Sri Lanka with travelteer. Camilla and Nalin made the tour such an amazing experience where I got to explore things that I would never have thought to have try such as hiking Ella rock and doing a safari. Anoma‘s marine programme has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had, with exploring rainforests, learning about caring for sea turtles in a hatchery/rescue and re plantation programmes for the local plant species. The staff at the site are amazing and so caring. Even when I’m missing home I still look forward to what’s happening tomorrow.
