Combining Programs

You can combine any two or more of most programs provided in Uruguay. Simply select the programs you want in the application and we will take care of it. You may also contact us for advice.

Combining With Adventure Programs: Adventure programs are offered alone or in combination with other programs. In most cases adventure programs are designed to take no more than two weeks and be combined with non-nature volunteer (not internship) placement. Participants may combine adventure with nature volunteer projects or internships with nature or other Uruguay projects. Those interested in combining adventure with internship instead of volunteering will add USD 100.00 to the fees. Beyond the first two weeks, anyone interested in the nature project work will get a special quote.

Survival Spanish: Program is only offered in combination with at least one other Uruguay program selected from above. Classes are offered in the morning with afternoon volunteer work or vis versa.

Survival Spanish and Nature Project Combination: As indicated on the Survival Spanish page those who combine Spanish classes and nature project work will complete the Spanish classes first then proceed to Quebrada de Los Cuervos for project placement. They will spend the first week in Treinta Y Tres with free afternoons and morning classes.
