About

South Africa is renowned for its vigorous culture, sweeping landscapes, remarkable wildlife. ISV’s South African programs extend to the countries of South Africa, Swaziland, and Mozambique. Struggling communities need help with basic essential needs - education, housing, water, and sanitation. Conservation projects include game park management or wildlife monitoring.  The ISV program combines 2 weeks of volunteer work with 2 weeks of Adventure Tours.  First 2 weeks Make a difference in a wildlife park or assist with township development

On the adventure tour you can become a fearless explorer as you discover the Big 5 in a real African National Park, catch the perfect wave on unspoiled beaches, discover the colorful yet turbulent past of this historical rich region and find yourself falling in love with the enchanting locals with contagious smiles and festive energy.
On our ISV Wild Africa excursion you may spot crocodiles, hippos, elephants, and more wildlife when you explore 2 new countries, Botswana and Zambia. Join us on an exciting 6 day/7 night excursion to Victoria Falls, the Zambezi River and Chobe National Park.
