Flights
BUNAC can arrange a flight to suit your needs and we aim to put volunteers together on the same flight so you travel as a group.
Our tickets are flexible returns allowing you to change your return date whilst away (subject to airline availability and an administration fee).
Alternatively, if you’d like to arrange independent travel then you’re more than welcome to as long as you arrive in Peru for the start of the orientation. Our in-house travel agents GS World Travel can give you a quote on 020 7250 0222.
Can I travel after my volunteer project?
Definitely! We encourage volunteers to take time out either before or at the end of their placement to explore more of the country.
During your placement you will generally have weekends free to travel. Peru is a relatively easy country to travel around and our local partners will be able to give you advice on where to go and what to see. From the Andes to the Amazon, the Inca Trail to Lake Titicaca, Peru is the ideal country to combine a volunteering placement with backpacking.
