Worldwide Experience

Worldwide Experience is a South Africa-based organisation offering wildlife-focused learning, volunteering and group travel experiences. Its programmes connect participants with wildlife conservation and veterinary practice, with an emphasis on responsible volunteering, animal welfare and making a positive impact. The organisation’s Vets Go Wild programme is an action-packed wildlife veterinary module recognised for EMS by international universities. Designed for veterinary, veterinary nursing and pre-veterinary students, it is available as 12-day and 16-day experiences, as well as an online course, combining practical opportunities with educational content.

Worldwide Experience also provides wildlife volunteering and courses for people seeking gap-year experiences, alongside transformational group travel designed to create memorable shared experiences. The organisation highlights full-time placement support, conservation expertise, safeguarding and child protection, and efforts to offset its carbon footprint. Its website features participant reviews, project news and educational blog articles about wildlife, conservation and veterinary experiences. Based in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, Worldwide Experience supports travellers and students through the planning process and promotes involvement in a worldwide conservation community.
