This popular family run conservation project is nestled deep in the Waterberg Biosphere Reserve, where animals and birdlife are prolific. As a volunteer you can join a 2-week Educational Programme, a 4-week Conservation Programme, or combine the two for a comprehensive 6-week African bush experience.

2 Week Educational Programme

Limited Special Offer - Join for 2 weeks on September 26th 2010 and receive a R1000 discount!
This is ideal for volunteers with limited time, or for volunteers who want to learn more about African wildlife and animal interactions without getting involved with ‘hands-on’ conservation work.  This exciting and informative module includes a 2-night stay at the Pilanesberg National Park.

4 Week Conservation Programme

If you have more time available and want to get involved with hands-on biodiversity and practical conservation work in the African bush, then this is the programme for you!

Detailed itineraries for each programme are included in the Tamboti Project Sheet.
