It was great getting to know and working with the people. I enjoyed learning about their culture. It was nice to visit their home to learn about their everyday life. I especially enjoyed spending time with the children. The accommodations, food, showers and latrines were nice. I appreciated all the help that was provided by the staff. Warm showers and the fixing of the tent zipper multiple times was especially appreciated.

I had a great time on this trip and really appreciated everything the local CHOICE Humanitarian staff did to help us work and interact with locals. The camp staff and safari staff were also great. They all went above and beyond to help us all have an awesome experience.
It was also a great experience to meet the local people and see a little bit of their daily lives. 10/10 would recommend and I’d be thrilled to be able to do another trip with CHOICE.

The trip of a lifetime. Very well organized and executed. I could not imagine duplicating these logistics on my own. I was really impressed with the village camp. I am not a camper and this was fantastic. Of course I was thankful to return to soft sheets, air conditioning, overhead lights and running water, and the safari lodges exceeded my expectations. Food was plentiful and delicious the whole time. Friends were amazing and I've left a part of my heart behind in Mblini.

We took our four oldest grandchildren (ages 15, 16, 16, and 17) on this trip and they had a great experience they couldn't have had in any other way! The Choice Humanitarian team was extraordinary and made the trip fulfilling and fun. We would recommend this and will probably take our next group of grandkids on a trip in two years!

It was a great trip with lots of kids. Olger and Hortencia took great care of all of us. The people of Guatemala were warm and friendly. The food was amazing. Everyone on the expedition could not have been better.

This was our 2nd expedition with Choice and we loved it so much!! We wanted a meaningful experience in helping others that are less fortunate. We wanted it to be change that could be sustained and not just painting a school for the 18th time. With Choice we a confident that those helped are learning to help themselves and being empowered to change. Because they have local teams that listen to the communities needs and are aware of roadblocks we feel certain our service will not only be meaningful but. The Choice team will follow up and continue to bless them.
It’s less noble but I really appreciate the convenience and thoroughness of their planning. I am always super grateful for our expedition leader and their tireless efforts to plan trips and work out all the transportation, safe food and accommodations. It’s implies the experience and lets us focus on the transformation that we are experiences. My husband was very nervous if the cots and tent camping in Kenya. It honestly was more like glamping! Super comfortable, warm water showers and great food!! Our group was large, 38 people but everyone from the 10 to the 67 year did great!! We definitely plan to go to Nepal someday!! Kenya and Ecuador were amazing!!! The people have our hearts and we all learned more gratitude.

We had a very good experience traveling with choice humanitarian. I love that we could go as a family. Once we got in country everything seemed to be taken care of.
