SUPRISING GUATEMALA! Guatemala is a great trip that takes you back in time twice. What do I mean by that? Because of two distinct historical events in Guatemala’s history that are observable today. First, there is the amazing ancient Mayan Tikal pyramids and then later, the dramatic arrival of the Spanish conquistadors. |

Volunteer Vacations offer up a new way to travel with fun adventure, a sense of purpose and a new and different experience. Maybe you couldn't join the Peace Corps, but, you could take two weeks and spend time helping baby turtles survive on a beach or spend some time on an organic farm. The idea to is pick a place you've always wanted to go, with interest in the local culture and then match it with a program. The amazing trips and things to do can be overwhelming on the web, so we encourage really thinking about a place that you want to go. If you start at a central point and look at what is available in that state or country, it will help you narrow down your choice. Here are some helpful links to get you started:
