Last year I attended the following Eco Conservation Holiday down in South Africa and very nice it was too!

I'd really like to do some more work in the Eco/Animal Conservation Holiday genre , there seems to be a wide range of suppliers of these type of holiday and no doubt some are better than others , also some of the prices being asked to being paid to volunteer seems ( to me ) a little steep.

To give an example of what I mean as pricey , this one in Slovakia ( local in relative terms ) has a lot of Skills that complement / work well with Bushcrafty interests , but at nearly £1300 or One week I consider rather top heavy. ( or am I just being tight ? )

So , has anyone here got any personal experience or 2nd hand ( friends and family ) knowledge of any such courses? I'm happy to look at anything from the very hot to the very cold environment , Research Diving etc.

So what you got?:)

A couple years ago i did a couple of weeks with this lot http://www.desertelephant.org/ and had a great time, It was hard work but very rewarding, the prices seem to have gone up a bit since i went but i would still go again tomorrow. Feel free to ask any questions.
