Global Challenge Holidays

Global challenge will give you an adventure holiday- and you will give something to the community you join. Our expeditions last for a month. Our friendly instructors will train you before you leave and will help you all the time you are away. Global challenge arranges expeditions to 30 countries. Here are two people’s experiences:

James Hammond, from Australia, is in India. This is what he says about his experience:

Before I came, I thought life in a small village with no television and a strange language would be difficult. But it hasn’t been difficult at all. We’ve helped in a home for children with disabilities. We’ve had invitations for meals with Indian families. Our instructor Michael has taken us for a day’s sailing on the Indian Ocean.

Olivia Owen, from London, is in Egypt. This is what she says:

The Mediterranean coast of Egypt is beautiful and has a wonderful climate. I’ve spent a lot of time here helping a tortoise conversation society. The Egyptian tortoise is one of the smallest and rarest tortoises in the world. Unfortunately, people are building on many of the places where the tortoises usually live, so we are finding new, safe homes for them to live in.
