Voluntourism Opportunities in Thailand by North by Northeast
For those wanting to make an exceptionally strong environmental and social impact, a great way to experience Thailand is through a voluntourism program. North by North East, a Thailand- and Laos-based tour operator, offers special voluntourism opportunities in southern Thailand (along with other exciting adventures and leisure travel experiences), connecting local communities with guests desiring first-hand and in-depth cultural experiences.
Travelers are brought into villages to work with locals on specific areas such as cultural preservation, rural development, Tsunami relief, education and medical assistance.
North by North East has been featured in major publications such as Travel+Leisure, Conde Nast Traveller and The New York Times, and is a member of The International Ecotourism Society.
