Best Adventure Travel Companies {On Earth}

ProWorld Service Corps is primarily a study-abroad group leading university groups on volunteer experiences (one to seven weeks) in Latin America, India, and Thailand. It also has two-week adventure-philanthropy trips providing health education or building community schools in Belize and Peru. You'll stay at modest guesthouses and share meals with community members and other volunteers. A couple times a week you'll have the chance to venture out for jungle hikes or exploring ruins. The organization customizes trips for groups of ten or more.
