DISCOVER NEW ZEALAND AND THE FIJI ISLANDS THROUGH A CULTURAL EXCHANGE SERVICE ADVENTURE!

The South Pacific is one of our planet’s most diverse and beautiful environments, and your home for four exciting weeks of service, culture and adventure! Meaningful projects, incredibly friendly people, and world class SCUBA diving are just a few of the reasons why this program has been so successful. New Zealand is a country of rare seismic beauty complete with glacial mountains, fast-flowing rivers, crystal clear lakes, abundant forest reserves, and long, deserted beaches. Our two and a half week stay in New Zealand will take place in the temperate North Island. Fiji, with over 300 islands in its archipelago, is a true paradise in the Pacific. The New Zealand/Fiji program combines meaningful environmental and community service projects, cultural exchange, beautiful surroundings, and fun, exciting adventure activities in two countries.
