Highlights:
It has been said that India is less a country than a continent, and it holds as many variations in religion, language, customs, art and cuisine as it does in topography. There are so many ways to approach and enjoy this vast, eternally exotic country. With over a million square miles and 5,000 years of history, India offers an overwhelming variety of vacation experiences, from the cultural and culinary to the active and adventurous. India's natural wonders run the gamut from deserts to jungles to snowy Himalayan peaks. While the south offers beautiful beaches, the north is rich in natural parks and monuments. Our volunteer placements are located in Greater Noida, outside of New Delhi. This city is a treasure trove of imperial Mughal monuments, bustling urban villages and British Raj-era avenues. We also have projects located in Bangalore, the Garden of India known for its parks and beauty squares. Discover India's mystical beauty, complex traditions, outstanding culture and ancient archeological all while taking part in meaningful community service work. A volunteer program allows you to really immerse yourself in the people, sights, smells and tastes of South Asian culture.
