Oplysninger ved ankomst
Hoedspruit Reptile Centre is open 365 days a year, and our volunteers are welcome to arrive on any day at any time. We will provide free pickups and drop-offs from either the airport in Hoedspruit, or from the various shuttle points in town itself.
We do require that volunteers book a minimum stay of two weeks to fully enjoy what we have to offer. There is no limit on how long you can book a program with us though.
We recommend that students on a budget book a shuttle from Johannesburg to Hoedspruit instead of the flight. The shuttle services we recommend all have proven track records of excellent service and safety standards.
Our office will assist volunteers with contact numbers and recommendations of shuttle companies during the booking process.
NOTE ON WIFI access at the volunteer house:
WiFi is available free of charge. Please just note that the free WiFi is a 2Mb up and 2Mb down line per person (each student receives their own wifi code). You will be able to send and receive whatsapps. But video calling and streaming will not be possible. We recommend that you purchase a Vodacom sim card for your stay at the centre. You can easily buy one at the airport on your way to us. If you did not manage to get a sim card at the airport then we will assist you to buy one in Hoedspruit once you have arrived. You will be able to load affordable South African data on this sim card and you will have stable and fast(ish) internet when you need it.
