What to Expect on a Volunteer Holiday with Leopard Valley Volunteers

Wondering what it’s like to volunteer in Zimbabwe? Discover a day in the life at Leopard Valley Volunteers—where conservation meets culture and equestrian adventure. Thinking about joining a volunteer programme in Africa? At Leopard Valley Volunteers, we welcome international guests into our Zimbabwean farm life. Each day is carefully structured to offer a mix of learning, fun, and relaxation.

Your Typical Day Might Include:

• Early paddock checks and feeding of animals
• Riding in the sand arena or through the bush
• Farm tasks and helping with new building projects
• Community work such as teaching or childcare
• Rest and storytelling around the evening braai

Weekends and rest days offer trips to iconic locations like Victoria Falls or Hwange National Park. We even assist with post-volunteer travel planning so you can extend your stay in Zimbabwe. Volunteers live on-site with the host family and fellow volunteers, making friends for life and gaining deeper insight into Zimbabwean life and culture.
