Honeymoon Volunteer


Are you getting married and planning your honeymoon but just don’t know where to start? Have you have lived together for a number of years, already taken beautiful holidays all over the world and are looking for the most memorable honeymoon with a difference? If you know you would like a life changing experience then how about considering an eye opening, enriching and fulfilling volunteer experience to make your honeymoon even more unique.

From a bespoke photographic expedition in Thailand to bottle feeding Lions Cubs in Africa, we can create a tailor made package for you to make the most out of your incredibly special vacation. What is more, we will soon be launching a range of honeymoon volunteer packages which will not only leave you with dazzling memories and an enriching experience, but will also allow you to penetrate the surface of a culture; to learn, love and give back to those in need.

Use this exclusive opportunity to reach out on your honeymoon and join Kaya in our quest to change the world, one step at a time.

Ask a Kaya advisor about options where you can have your own private room, for upgrades and added extras that can be organised to add on to your honeymoon volunteering experience.

If you don't know where to start and are looking for a bit of inspiration take a look at the projects down the right-hand side of this page. All of these projects apart from the photography expedition have upgrade options to rooms with a bit more luxury.

If you're still unsure whether a volunteering honeymoon is for you, check out our fantastic case study of newly-weds Leslie Osterloh and Bradley Godwin who joined Kaya on a 5 day Human Trafficking Photography Expedition to Promote Social Change in Thailand. Leslie talked to us about her experience in Thailand.

“As soon as we got engaged we knew we wanted to volunteer for our honeymoon. Simply stated: life is about people. Brad and I truly want to make an impact on people’s lives in everything we do. We find the greatest joy is being a blessing to others and volunteering is the perfect avenue to do that.

I’ve been to a lot of places in my life and have done a lot of crazy adventures but to go into a country and try to gain an in depth understanding of the culture you’re visiting is radically difficult. The goal or mission of our assignment was to find “the light” and “the dark” of each Hill tribe. For example, in the Li Su village we were able to see children at school and to capture through a lens their sweet innocence; however on the flip side we also had to understand the dark side of this community which is child trafficking and the true issue which was what happens to kids after the age of 11 when there is no work and no school opportunity.

In the Li Su village we also stayed with a family in their hut and tried to soak in our surroundings as much as possible. We learned about the neighbours (organic farmers, former prostitutes, police officers, school teachers) we slept in mosquito nets, trekked from village to village, and embraced the north Thailand Hilltribe customs.

We have already told over 1000 people about our experiences in the hope to create the change we would like to see in the world. We were able to share our experience and travel not only to inform people about the cause but also to share with our family and friends that there is another way to travel and another way to do a honeymoon...”
