Welcome to the trip of a lifetime!
International Needs Canada is pleased to invite you on this Discovery Tour to Africa. You will experience many famous sites, and get an inside view and perspective of the families and children served by International Needs and their partners.
This custom tour brings you to some of the best experiences in Africa. You’ll get up close and personal with wildlife on safari, take in a panoramic view of Victoria Falls, and look up at the majestic Table Mountain in South Africa. Along the way, you’ll stay in some beautiful accommodations and camps, and a houseboat journey on the Zambezi River.
But that's not all - the heart of this trip lies in introducing you to a different side of Africa. You’ll be visiting ZACTS School for Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Zambia and the Bella Ciao Safe House and Drop-In Centre in Kawangware Slum, Kenya. This is truly one of the most powerful aspects of the trip – meeting the people right in the heart of their homes, schools, and communities. You’ll meet energetic children who love to meet overseas guests, because few tourists venture into the rural areas of these countries.
As a bonus, you’ll receive a generous tax receipt for the portion of the trip that includes the visits to the International Needs projects.
If you're eager to be a part of this Discovery Tour, you can get started by downloading the application form below the Transport Summary. Once you've completed the form, please send it via email to Corrie Mulder at corrie@internationalneeds.ca.
