Our values

At Tumaini we believe in the power of solidarity trips. When we travel we open our minds and give the best of ourselves. If we combine travel and volunteering, a transformative experience emerges that changes our perspective on life and, at the same time, strengthens small NGOs.

Trust

The Tumaini team has visited and evaluated all the NGOs we work with in the field. This is the only way we can guarantee that they are suitable genuine projects for volunteering.

Transparency

Our team, our accounts, our actions, our stances... All the relevant information about our project is public and accessible on our website!

Proximity

Acompañamos a los viajeros y viajeras en el proceso formativo y de sensibilización vinculado a la experiencia.

Responsibility

Trabajamos directamente con las ONGs locales y les apoyamos cuando tienen necesidades especiales o urgencias. ¡Para nosotras es esencial contribuir en su crecimiento y mejora!

Commitment

We are 100% committed to the dissemination of responsible tourism: we give talks in high schools and universities, write posts and articles, and train our travellers before the trip.

Latest testimonials

Volunteer travel at a women's empowerment project in India

I think that creating bonds with the people you practice with every day enriches you beyond the "work" you have to do, seeing them again and being able to feel appreciated by them adds more than what you deliver. To be able to compare points of view of your perspective on life vs. theirs opens your mind. The warmth of the people inside and outside Tibet World, the opportunity to do other activities such as yoga, meditation, mountaineering, paragliding and above all to get to know a culture different from my own. You feel super safe all the time. I don't think I had any bad experience, each of my days had its learning (Attention Tumaini) Excellent, always making sure we were well. - Cristina de la Rosa

Solidarity trip to the vibrant neighborhood of Achada Grande

(Attention Tumaini) I really enjoyed having a meeting beforehand to resolve doubts and get to know the rest of my fellow travellers. Villa Palmarina was wonderful and our different drivers were part of the trip. Simply a very nice trip full of pleasant moments. - Anonymous

Solidarity trip to the vibrant neighborhood of Achada Grande

I have only words of thanks for having given me the opportunity to make this trip, with so many facilities and so well organised. As I said in another comment, Villapalmarina is a fantasy, Da, Sandra and Cachupa are the best hosts; for Mia there are no words that can describe how great she is, and for "her team" (Anderson, Ulda, Dani, drivers, Maisiña (and all the people from the projects) little less. The group (Mer and Laura, Sori and Maria) is unbeatable, and Cape Verde is a dream country. The hotel, the breakfasts, The hotel, the breakfasts, the trips, the projects, the organised meals, everything exceeded by far all expectations and there is not a single negative aspect that I can pass on to you, (because with the street insecurity at night you can't do anything, right? haha). So just THANK YOU and I hope I have reciprocated in part with my participation and company in everything I have been to. - Anonymous
