India
Travel in India and prepare yourself for a truly unique experience in the second largest nation on the planet. From Kashmir and the Himalayan plateau in the far North West, to the Kolkata and the Brahmaputra Delta in the West and on down to Kanyakumari and the holy confluence of the oceans at the Southern Cape; India is a country of startling contrasts and exquisite variations. If you decide to travel to India it’ll be the kind of experience you’ll never forget.
Despite the country's great natural wealth and a recent economic upturn, more than 250 million people live below the poverty line and evidence of this can be seen on every street corner. This is why people are needed to volunteer in India and help some of the people that the global economy all too often leaves behind. Find out more about volunteering in India.
If you're planning to travel India or take a gap year in India, you’re in the right place to find fantastic volunteer India opportunities, ranging from community work in Calcutta to teaching English in Bangalore. We’ve been sending students and travellers to India for years and our expert travel advisors know the place from top to bottom. Take a look at our India volunteer opportunities and make a difference to this amazing country and its people during your travels abroad.
