Going to a new country can be a bit unnerving. But it’s a great experience when you have the basics taken care of. At GapGuru, we provide you with what we believe will make for a comfortable trip.
What’s included?
Country and Project Guidance – There is so much to choose from! Our team gives you a rundown on destinations and projects that you are tempted to go for, so that you can choose the right placement. If you are not sure of what you want to do or where you want to go, our experienced team is there to guide you all the way.
Pre Departure Briefing – Before you leave for your chosen destination, we will arrange for a pre departure briefing where we help you out with extremely helpful details. Things like – what clothes are suitable, peculiarities of people, food that you could get, safety of the place and precautions if any, how much should you pay for a cup of coffee – simple things to make your life easier.
Help with Visas – GapGuru will arrange for all the relevant documents and guide you through the visa process.
Airport Pick Up – Arriving in an unfamiliar place and not knowing where to go and how to get there can be quite unsettling. A GapGuru representative will meet you at Siem Reap Airport on arrival and transfer you to your accommodation in Battambang. A return transfer to Siem Reap Airport can be provided at the end of your programme for an additional $40 if desired.
In Country Support – Our local coordinators act as a friend and guide throughout your stay. Whether you feel homesick or just want some local information, they are there to make sure you have a memorable experience.
Accommodation – We have a fantastic volunteer house in Battambang city. This house is available for up to 6 volunteers at any one point. Volunteers live together in this shared accommodation where breakfast and dinner are provided. Alternatively there are volunteer studios within a 5 minute walk of the house.
